The last post Glacial deposits present a simplified but very different organisation compared to a record front of the adjacent Rhône river.
The pure nickel deposit presents a pseudocolumnar structure and a preferential [100] orientation.
Thirdly the Turoniana deposit presents a high groundwater reservoir and it is formed by benches of Limestone to the top, marl and limestone in the middle part and gypsum at the base.
As a result, the deposited coating presented a low hardness.
The deposited films presented different surface morphologies depending on whether NWs or NTs were overfilled.
Experimental tests show that deposited material present similar properties than those obtained with new powder grains.
Above 550°C, the deposited films present the (111) and (200) TiN textures.
The films were deposited by present PECVD system using tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as a source of Si and characterized by ellipsometery and FTIR spectroscopy.
Results indicate that all deposits present a soil-like aspect and although they record several depositional conditions, sedimentary structures and textures are similar among different facies.
The deposits present a variety of evidence of human occupation of the coast.
