A detailed pollen analysis has been carried out on two sediment cores taken from a marsh area located in the Doñana National Park, southwestern Spain. The studied sedimentary sequences contain similar late Holocene record of vegetation and climate show progressive aridification trend since at least 5000 cal. yr BP, through decrease forest cover this area. Long-term changes shown here (semi-desert expansion Mediterranean decline) paralleled declining summer insolation. Decreasing insolation...
Abstract Here, we report the recent discovery of 87 Neandertal footprints on Southwest Iberian Peninsula (Doñana shoreline, Spain) located an upper Pleistocene aeolian littoral setting (about 106 ± 19 kyr). Morphometric comparisons, high resolution digital photogrammetric 3D models and detailed sedimentary analysis have been provided to characterized palaeoenvironment. The were impressed in shoreline a hypersaline swamped area related benthic microbial mats, close coastline. They rounded...
A multidisciplinary study from a number of drilled cores in the Guadalquivir estuary has made possible to identify as many three extreme wave events and their facies 4th millennium BP (A: ~ 4000 cal yr BP, B: 3550 C: 3150 BP). These events, which caused strong erosion sandy barrier neighboring aeolian systems El Abalario, brought about significant paleogeographical changes that may have affected human settlements established area during Neolithic Copper Age periods Middle Bronze Age. The can...
The geomorphological, sedimentological, topographical and chronological analysis of a large area located on the left bank Guadalquivir estuary (SW Iberian Peninsula), has enabled an extensive Late Pleistocene coastal plain to be defined, featuring series littoral strands. These rest uncomfortably rocky basal unit (BU) from Lower Pleistocene, with age 1.1 Ma BP, showing shore platform morphology. presents facies system where two stratigraphic units have been defined (CPU 1, 2 3). All indicate...
The estuary of the Guadiana River is located in southwestern Iberian Peninsula and serves as border between Spain Portugal for more than 40 km. This consists a narrow rock bounded channel with meandering morphology imposed by geologic materials. Its mouth affected mesotidal regime, tidal ranges comprised 3 1 m (spring vs neap tides). work analyzes sediment transport patterns across section low marine sector estuary. transversal profile composed deep lateral bar. bed deeper area constituted...
Abstract Hominin footprints were recently discovered at Matalascañas (Huelva; South of Iberian Peninsula). They dated thanks to a previous study in deposits the Asperillo cliff 106 ± 19 ka, Upper Pleistocene, making Neandertals most likely track-makers. In this paper, we report new Optically Stimulated Luminescence dating that places hominin surface range 295.8 17 ka (MIS 9-MIS 8 transition, Middle Pleistocene). This age implies possible track-makers are individuals more from Neandertal...
Abstract Three steps have been established during the Holocene formation of bar-built estuary Las Nuevas (Doñana National Park, Spain), on basis clay mineralogy variations and palaeontological record. The first step is characterized by presence ostracodes homogeneous quantities minerals (17–20% illite, 25–29% smectites), values smectite (0.64–0.70) illite (0.60–0.70) crystallinity indexes, ratio Al VI /(Fe + Mg ) in (0.46–0.47). This zone interpreted as a very shallow lagoon with euryhaline...
