1 DANCORE-Day Master s Thesis Interpretation of Shallow Seismic and Sediment Cores from the Area stretching from the Southern Part of Kattegat to the Great Belt in the Period Late-Weichselian to Early Holocene. Carina Bendixen Dias 1
2 Content - Aim of project - Regional geology - Results - Processing of seismic data - Vibrocores - Late Glacial sediments - Channel infill - Barrier islands - Discussion - Late Glacial sediments - Channel infill and faulting - Bathymetric map - Conclusion Dias 2
3 AIM OF THE PROJECT Aim of the project Outline the development of the study area from Late-Weichselian to Early Holocene - Interpreting shallow seismic 5 Boomer profiles 71 Sparker profiles - 10 Sediment cores Dias 3
4 REGIONAL GEOLOGY Regional Geology Jensen et al BP to BP Deglaciation of the southwestern Kattegat High sea level 60 m Younger Dryas AD to AD Lowest sea level m (b.s.l) Fjord-like estuary Lowstand Holocene Rising sea level (transgression) Coastal barrier islands are flodded Dias 4
5 RESULTS PROCESSING OF DATA Results Processing of data using ProMAX Boomer profiles - Navigation errors. Removal of traces - Frequency filtering - Bandpass filter Sparker profiles - Migration using the velocity 1480 m/s (Kirchhoff time migration with RMS Velocity) - Extended migration (three profiles) (Kirchhoff time migration with varying velocities) - Water: 1480 m/s - Sediment: 1600 m/s Dias 5

14 Discussion Discussion Late Glacial sediments - Sediments deposited during a high sea level (highstand) - The faulting that limits the distribution of the sediments occured before 15 cal. ka BP (Jensen et al., 2002A) Profil R3_006 Sted og dato Dias 14
15 CHANNEL INFILL Discussion Channel infill and faulting - Two types of sediment infill Different infill directions Change in environment Boundary between the two units represent a hiatus - Strike-slip faulting Possible event which caused gas migration Sted og dato Dias 15
16 Discussion Regression, Lowstand and Transgression Discussion Unit 2 r2 - Two erosional surfaces identified Lower boundary of unit 2 and unit 3 Possible tectonic offset causing a local transgression (deposition of unit 2) Limited distribution of unit 2 due to erosion - Reflector r2 is at a lowstand level Limited distribution of the reflector - Can be due to erosion during the transgression Unit 3 r3 - Both units have a connection with the interpreted palaeo-great Belt channel Dias 16
17 DISCUSSION Discussion - Palaeo coastline - Palaeo-Great Belts canals - Sediment progradation - Back-stepping of barrier islands with rise in sea level Dias 17
18 CONCLUSION Conclusion - The processing of the seismic data have resulted in better data quality hence better interpretation - Interpretation of the bathymetric map has resulted in the identification of a former coastline. This has resulted in the construction of a palaeogeographical map - The Late Glacial sediments were deposited during high sea level (highstand) - The fualts that bounds the Late Glacial sediments occured before 15 cal. ka BP Dias 18
19 CONCLUSION Conclusion - During the regression a local transgression occurred where unit 2 were deposited - The Lowstand occurred before 9 cal. ka. BP - Two types of canal infill Change in infill direction Change in environment - Barrier islands are back-stepper with rising sea level and eventually drowned Dias 19
