Micromorphology of hydromorphic soils developed in fluvio-marine sediments during the Middle-Late Pleistocene transit in the Gulf of Cadiz (Atlantic South Spain) Micromorfología de suelos hidromorfos desarrollados en depósitos fluvio-marinos del Pleistoceno Medio-Superior en el Golfo de Cádiz (Atlántico, Sur de España) Micromorfologia de solos hidromórficos desenvolvidos em sedimentos fluvio marinhos durante o Plistocénico Médio-Superior no Golfo de Cádiz (Atlântico, Sul de Espanha)

This study establishes the controlling factors in the soil development in the ancient coastal plain of the Guadalquivir River along the southern Spanish coast (Huelva) shortly before 100 ka BP. The macro and micromorphological study indicates that a sedimentation hiatus allowed soil formation (exten...
