Fluvial terrace formation in a mountainous area (2): influence of eustatism, tectonics and altitudinal distribution of watersheds based on an allostratigraphic study (Albania)

Fluvial terrace formation in a mountainous area (2): influence of eustatism, tectonics and altitudinal distribution of watersheds based on an allostratigraphic study (Albania)

Terraces are highly developed along the Albanian rivers and eleven levels of terraces are recognized in the area, nine occurring during the last glacial cycle (MIS 5d to end of MIS 2). An allostratigraphy study of the fluvial terraces shows a large variety of the geometry of the sedimentary units be...
