...Annabelle M. Foos Abstract Aluminous lateritic soils from Governor's Harbour, Eleuthera, Bahamas are described. These soils are forming on eolian ridges under a humid, tropical savanna climate. The parent material is carbonate eolianite plus airborne dust from North Africa. The soils are thin...

... the archipelago. A semi-automated mapping approach that leverages object-based image analysis yields a total aeolianite area of ~1674 km 2 across Great Abaco, Eleuthera, Cat, San Salvador, Long, Crooked, Acklins, and Mayaguana islands (Bahamas) and the Turks and Caicos Islands. Longitudinal axis measurements from...

... in Bermuda, and horizontal, fenestrae-filled beds crop out on platforms at two sites as high as +21 m in Eleuthera, Bahamas. Carbonate beach sands are bound by an early generation of isopachous fibrous cement that is characteristic of a phreatic marine environment. Amino acid racemization and TIMS (thermal...

... report the occurrence of irregular (i.e., equidimensional) fenestrae in Pleistocene eolianites on San Salvador and Eleuthera (Bahamas), as much as 35 m above the coeval sea level. A rainstorm-induced origin is proposed as the mechanism for production of such voids in eolian deposits. We suggest...

... extensive and apparently proceeds by slumping of large, allochthonous blocks, as indicated by the presence of an apparently intact Eocene forereef deposit in the interval from 3,590 to 3,430 m off Eleuthera Island. Geological Society of America 1985 ...

...Jeffrey J. Dravis Subtidal oolitic stromatolites are forming in normal marine waters (1-5 m) in the high energy oolitic sand environment on Eleuthera Bank, Bahamas. Penecontemporaneous marine cementation transforms these stromatolites into hardgrounds, some of which may localize subsequent reef...

... platform of Little Bahama Bank. The sediment was transported 150 to 200 mi (240 to 320 km) into the Blake-Bahama Basin via Great Abaco Canyon and Eleuthera Ridge (a Miocene submarine canyon). Deposition close to the sources was primarily by mass flow or debris flow mechanisms (medium to coarse grains...

... with different source frequencies. The 400-cps source did not penetrate beneath consolidated sediments whereas the low-frequency source did. The 400-cps source was used to study the reflections from the 15,500-ft deep bottom in the basin near Eleuthera, British West Indies. Reflections at sub-bottom depths...

... 2014 On a macroscopic scale, the crusts preserved within the paleo-lagoon at Punta Chivato resemble the modern, layered microbial mat deposits from the bottom of a hypersaline lake on Eleuthera Island in the Bahamas described by Glunk et al. (2011) , the lithified internal structure...
