SPATIAL MODELING OF EARLY HOLOCENE MANGROVE FORMATION IN THE SANTA ELENA PENINSULA, SOUTH WESTERN ECUADOR

SPATIAL MODELING OF EARLY HOLOCENE MANGROVE FORMATION IN THE SANTA ELENA PENINSULA, SOUTH WESTERN ECUADOR

Human occupations in South America during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene need to be considered from a hemispheric perspective. It is also important to recognize the uniqueness and variety of environmental ecotones found in Northwestern South America. Within the context of the Santa Elena Pe...
