New results from fieldwork carried out on Failaka island testify to relative sea-level fluctuations during Late Pleistocene and Holocene. This study is based on analysing, sampling and dating geomorphological sea-level indicators, including beach ridges or beachrocks. The results have been compared and harmonised with recalibrated data from pre-existing literature to reconstruct the relative sea-level local chronology. The vertical displacement identified may have induced coastline mobility and significant environmental changes and impacted the human occupation in Failaka and along the coastal areas of Kuwait. Eventually, the results highlight the impact of large-scale crustal deformations on regional relative sea-level variations.

科威特晚更新世-全新世相对海平面变化综述:来自法拉卡岛的新证据

在法拉卡岛上进行的实地工作的新结果证明了晚更新世和全新世期间海平面的相对波动。这项研究基于对地貌海平面指标(包括海滩山脊或海滩岩石)的分析、采样和测年。结果已与来自现有文献的重新校准数据进行比较和协调,以重建相对海平面局部年表。确定的垂直位移可能导致海岸线流动和重大环境变化,并影响了法拉卡和科威特沿海地区的人类占领。最终,结果突出了大规模地壳变形对区域相对海平面变化的影响。
