Millennial surface water dynamics in the Ria de Vigo during the last 3000 years as revealed by coccoliths and molecular biomarkers

A combined study of coccolith assemblages and biomarkers in a gravity core collected from the Ría de Vigo (NW Spain) allowed us to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental conditions for the last 3000 years. The quantitative distribution of coccolithophore spe
