Cores collected from Mississippi Sound, in the Gulf of Mexico, were studied using 210Pbxs and 137Cs geochronology, X-radiography, granulometry, and a multi-sensor core logger. Our results indicate the presence of a widespread sandy event layer that we attribute to Hurricane Camille (1969). An initial thickness of more than 10 cm is estimated from the cores, which is large compared to the time-averaged apparent accumulation rate of 0.29-0.47 cm y-1. Physical and biological post-depositional processes have reworked the sandy layer, producing a regional discontinuity and localized truncation, and resulting in an imperfect and biased record of sedimentary processes during the storm. The oceanographic and sedimentological processes that would ha...
