Abstract:A condensed deposit is a marine rock residue that accumulated autochthonously over a large time-span; it should have a recognizable and chronologlc biostratigraphic record. Condensation is a continuous process working during sedimentation by mechanical concentration (filteringlsieving, screening, by-passing, winnowing, or scouring of mud) or shortly after sedimentation (blOerosion on hard grounds in combination with mechanical erosion and exhumation of underlying strata). In the Subbetic Plateau (formerly "ext… Show more
