Soil evolution indices in fluvial terrace chronosequences from central Spain (Tagus and Duero fluvial basins)

Quaternary International, 2015
Soil development in central Spain was studied through analysis of soil chronosequences from Tagus and Duero river valley terrace systems, evolved under similar Mediterranean climatic conditions throughout the Pleistocene. The most complete soil–terrace sequence, representative for our study, developed in the Tagus valley (Aranjuez–Toledo–Talavera ...
