Author Information

Bernadette Tessier is currently Senior Researcher at the CNRS in Caen, and has worked on tidal environments and deposits for 30 years. Her main interest is the Holocene evolution and sediment infill of tide-dominated estuaries in north-west France. Her most recent work focuses on the control by climate changes on the behaviour of megatidal systems. Jean-Yves Reynaud has been working on tidal deposits since 1992. He has authored papers on the offshore tidal ridges of the southern Celtic Sea, and on the tide-dominated bioclastic deposits infilling Miocene incised valleys and straits of south-east France and Corsica. He is currently Professor at the University of Lille.
