Abstract

On the rocky coasts of Provence, biogenic littoral rims develop, built by the coralline Rhodophyte Lithophyllum lichenoides. Remains may be preserved for millenia when submersed in a rising sea environment. These remains can be used as biological indicators of relative sea level variations. The studied stations indicate constant decrease in global speed of relative sea level rise for the last 5000 yr. The Holocene marine transgression seems to stop in Provence around 500 A.D. -English summary
