14C ages measured from mangrove wood fragments from Polder 32 plotted as a function of depth in meters compared to the eustatic sea level curve of [38] with 0, 1, and 3 mm/year of subsidence. Elevations are normalized to EGM96 datum. Results show rapid aggradation and aquifer construction during early Holocene sea-level rise, with slower aggradation and sea-level rise since the mid-Holocene. The several deep (23–54 m) radiocarbon ages around 4000 ± 500 YBP correspond with a local channel scour
