El Control del Paleorrelieve durante la Transgresión Tortoniense: Un Caso de Estudio en el Margen Pasivo de la Cuenca del Guadalquivir (Sur de España)

Abstract

The Guadalquivir foreland basin has a complex temporal and spatial evolution which is shown in its facies architecture and its paleogeographical distribution during Tortonian. In this work we emphasize the control that exerted paleorelief on sedimentation (volume, location and type) and distribution of sedimentary environments in the Tortonian transgression. Four types of paleotopographic configurations have been differenced in the Paleozoic substrate, which are related to the different deposits deposited on the passive margin of the basin during sea-level fluctuation
