Milankovitch-scale multi-proxy records from fluvial sediments of the last 2.6Ma, Pannonian Basin, Hungary

Stratigraphic continuity and fragmentary sedimentation: the success of cyclostratigraphy as part of integrated stratigraphy

“…Nevertheless, fluvial successions of Quaternary age have revealed the imprint of cyclic climate change (e.g. Blum et al 1994;Törnqvist 1998), and a further example of astronomical control on a fluvial system comes from Pleistocene sequences in the Pannonian Basin (Nador et al 2003).…”

Channel sinuosity of the Körös River system, Hungary/Romania, as possible indicator of the neotectonic activity

“…In the Pannonian (Late Miocene and Pliocene) stage it started to fill up with sediment from the Alps and Carpathians over a period of 6 Ma. The ancient river system was formed in this newly formed basin during the upper Pliocene (Nádor et al, 2003;Gábris and Nádor, 2007). The Körös river was the main base level of the area, and the rate of subsidence changed so often that the branches of the Körös river often changed their channels (Nádor et al, 2003.…”

The Körös river was the main base level of the area, and the rate of subsidence changed so often that the branches of the Körös river often changed their channels (Nádor et al, 2003. Subsidence is still operative, but the main subsidence areas coincide with areas of considerable hydrocarbon and water extraction (Franyó, 1992;Joó, 1992).…”

Estimation of water conductivity of the natural flood channels on the Tisza flood-plain, the Great Hungarian Plain

“…The crustal subsidence is balanced by sedimentation of the rivers, following the in-filling of the Pannonian Lake during the Pliocene (Kázmér, 1990). The riverine sedimentation (Nádor et al, 2003) has produced one of the world's best developed flood-plains. The elevation difference in the GHP is about 100 m, while its horizontal extent reaches 300 km.…”
