“…Post-Alpine formations that also contribute to the geological structure of the basin are: (a) Molassic formations of the Mesohellenic trench (sands, clays, marls, sandstones and conglomerates), (b) Neogene sediments (clays, silts, marls, sands, sandstones, conglomerates, breccias, grits and marly limestones) and (c) Quaternary deposits (alluvial and fluvial deposits, fluvial terraces, screes and talus cones) [25,33]. The major part of the Western Thessaly basin is comprised mainly of formations of Quaternary age (2,570.62 km 2 , or 42.19%).…”
