Conclusion
 Introduction
The variation in the marine level is none other than the alternation between the rise and
the decline in the sea level. This alternation is more marked by the rise in marine water.
Many studies of the relative variations in the marine level were carried out on the ribs of the
Atlantic (Delibrias et al., 1971, Mariette, 1971) and the Mediterranean (Laborel et al., 1994,
Vella, 2004). This work is based on a set of radiocarbon dating made from a varied material:
coastline pear, sea vessel, shells. None of these witnesses is used to estimate the position of
the marine level on the ribs of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. However, the observations
available on the Continental shelf testify to a low marine level (regression), located 100-120
m under the current level. Then, the transgression (rise in the post-ice-level marine level)
has been important to an important pace. A similar trend is also observed on the neighboring
coasts of England (Waller et al., 1999). It seems that the raised gear speeds are quite variable
by the coastal regions considered. On the Mediterranean facade, weak marks allow very
accuracy reconstruction of variations in the relative marine level, through biological
indicators (Laborel et al., 1994, Vella and Provonsal, 2000). The balanes (small crustaceans)
thus offer a precision of ± 20 cm, while the Duclico deep ouccicolts of the Rhone Delta and
the Lithophyllum Lichenoides cannons allow to position the relative marine level with an
average precision of ± 35 cm. These studies thus show a regular level of the marine level
relative to a speed of about 2 mm / year also due to global warming. The elevation continues
without significant oscillating at a slower pace, estimated at 0.7 mm / year.

The purpose of this is to highlight the place or place sedimentary packing according to
the rise or decrease in the level of the mother. As a result, we will talk about sequential
stratipture concepts, deposits and deception of a deposit sequence.
