Figure 2. A: Left: Shalimar bathymetric map of proximal Lebanese offshore. Bold red lines are "fresh" seafloor seismic breaks.
Boxes a and b indicate locations of SAR images in Figure DR4 and Figure 3, respectively.
Right: 2a calendar ages of 14C dated "B1" vermetid samples (red dots), plotted along the coast with elevation above local
mean sea level (LMSL) in cm, mostly predate the A.D. 551 event.
B: Uplifted, karst-pitted vermetid benches near Tabarja.
C: Projected total station measurements of bench elevations relative to LMSL (living vermetid surface in swash zone).
Note significant scatter in elevation measurements on fossil levels, particularly B1 and B4, likely because of sub-levels
with rounded edges and of irregularities due to deep pitting by microkarst.
