oa Architecture of a Holocene Carbonate Beach-Bar Complex: Jabal Fuwairit, Northeast Qatar

Qatar’s coasts are famous natural laboratories for carbonate research, especially for carbonate coastal spits. These thin, elongated bodies developed from the Holocene onwards along Qatar’s coast. One of these costal spits forms a superbly exposed cliff, the so-called Jabal Fuwairit, which is of Holocene age.
