A ‘modern’ tidal notch, submerged&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;c&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;. −20 cm, was observed in all studied islands.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;This notch is regarded to have been submerged by the global sea-level rise that occurred during the 19th and 20th centuries at a rate exceeding the&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;possibilities of intertidal bioerosion. Its presence provides evidence that no vertical tectonic movements occurred since its formation. On Corfu, impacts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;of ancient earthquakes have left some marks&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;of emergence at about&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;≥&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;+130 ± 11, +110 ± 11, +65 ± 11, +40 ±&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;11, and +25 ± 11&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;cm, as well as&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;marks of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;submergence at about −40 to −50, −85&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;± 11, −120 ± 11,&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;and −180 ± 11 cm. The emergence of +130 ± 11 cm, previously dated at about 790–400 cal.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;ff5&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;BC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;was detected through erosion notches at various sites in the western part of Corfu and appears to continue even more west, at Othonoi Island. Tidal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;notches submerged at depths exceeding 0.4 m were observed in the northeastern part of the island and suggest the local occurrence of a sequence of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;four coseismic subsidences, with average vertical displacements of 40 cm, during at least the last few&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;millennia. At Paxoi and Antipaxoi, Holocene vertical&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;movements seem to have been mainly of&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;subsidence. At Paxoi, the ‘modern’ notch was found at&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;about −20 to −30&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;cm, while four more submerged tidal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;notches were distinguished at about −40 ± 11, −60 ±&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;11, −75 ± 11, and −90 ±&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;11&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;cm, while in Antipaxoi, three&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;submerged tidal notches were distinguished&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;a&quot;&gt;at about −60 ± 11, −75 ± 11, and −120 ± 11 cm.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
