dc.description.abstractThe main purpose of this study is to reveal the sedimentary enviroments based on sediment characteristics and relative sedimentation rates. The obtained data are all based on analysis results of core samples taken from the Dumai Coastal Waters located off the north coast of Dumai City Indonesia. Bottom sediment samples were collected at 7 stations in the waters using gravity corer in March 2011. The samples were used for mechanical grain size analysis, ignition loss method, bulk chemical analysis, sand grain composition. In addition, the topmost one centimeter of core samples, which approximately 10 cc of wet sediments, was utilized for benthic foraminiferal study, namely, the study of of L/Tl values to infer the relative sedimentation rates. The Dumai Coastal Waters, Riau Province Indonesia is subdivided into three areas based on the general trend of sediment characteristics and relative sedimentation rates as following: 1) the area near the coast and central area of of the water, both of which are characterized by coarse sediments, high relative sedimentation rates and dominantly terrigeneous sediments, the area off the coast characterized by relatively coarse sediments, rather high relative sedimentation rates and relatively high biogeneous sediments, 3) the area relatively close to the coast characterized by fine sediments, low relative sedimentation rates and high biogeneous sediments. The distribution of crude oil content in sediments indicate that study area under influence of tidal and longshore currents. Judging from the distribution pattern of crude oil content in sediments, sediments polluted by crude oil were transported northwesward and northeastward by longshore currents and spread toward north by tidal currents, of the Dumai Coastal Waters.en_US
