TL;DR: Analysis of Holocene sediment cores from islands in Florida Bay finds that mangroves that comprised the South Florida coastline 4–3000 years ago rapidly transitioned to estuarine conditions, despite low rates of sea-level rise, and proposes that their demise was driven by high climate variability.

TL;DR: The authors examined the distribution of organic C, total N, and total P in carbonate sediments from sites of continuous and known sedimentation rate ( 210 Pb and 137 Cs dated ), in eastern and central Florida Bay.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an assessment of sediment distribution and quality using a multidisciplinary approach to characterize the influence of various physical and chemical parameters: nearsurface stratigraphy, major trace metal concentrations (Cu, Pb, Zn, and Ni), and short-lived radionuclides ( 210 Pb 7 Be, and 137 Cs).

TL;DR: This article presented a transect of cores from northwest Florida wherein radical postdepositional changes in the redox regime has created atypical geochemical profiles at the bottom of the sedimentary column.
