报告内容简介：
few studies have documented the characteristics of storm deposits associated with a modern hurricane. hurricane harvey (2017) caused extensive flooding in coastal texas due to a combination of storm surge and heavy precipitation. this study investigates the depositional process associated with hurricane harvey by means of loss-on-ignition (loi) and x-ray fluorescence (xrf) analyses of 25 short cores collected from the aransas national wildlife refuge anwr, texas. a distinct washover sand layer was recorded at all coring sites, and the intrusion of storm deposits can be detected by a peak in the chlorine/bromine (cl/br) ratio of most sediment cores. our study shows that cl/br ratios are higher in coastal environments than in terrestrial environments, thereby confirming that this elemental ratio can be used as a salinity indicator and, as a corollary, evidence of marine intrusion into lower-salinity environments.
