Oligocene–Miocene alluvial sedimentation in the northern Ebro Basin, NE Spain: Tectonic control and palaeogeographical evolution

Geomorphic and stratigraphic evidence of incision-induced halokinetic uplift and dissolution subsidence in transverse drainages crossing the evaporite-cored Barbastro–Balaguer Anticline (Ebro Basin, NE Spain)

“…1, 2). Most of this detrital succession was deposited in extensive alluvial fans, more than 50 km in radius, fed by rivers whose headwaters reached the igneous rocks of the Axial Zone of the Pyrenees (Luzón, 2005). The Peraltilla Formation (Crusafont et al, 1966), designated as Solsona Formation east of the Segre River ( Fig.…”

“…It is up to 950 m thick (Senz and Zamorano, 1992) and ranges in age from Lower Oligocene to Upper Oligocene. The Barbastro Formation and the Peraltilla Formation constitute the T3 tecto-sedimentary unit of Luzón (2005). The Peraltilla Formation is overlain by the Upper Oligocene-Lower Miocene Sariñena Formation (Quirantes, 1978;Luzón, 2005) (Figs.…”

Build‐up and depositional dynamics of an arc front volcaniclastic complex: the Miocene Tepoztlán Formation (Transmexican Volcanic Belt, Central Mexico)

“…In particular, the deposition of abundant sheetflood sediments is a sign for floodplain sedimentation in marginal areas of the ringplain (c.f. Luzón, 2005) or its front, i.e. at the transition to the river system.…”

Paleohydrological significance of trace fossil distribution in Oligocene fluvial-fan-to-lacustrine systems of the Ebro Basin, Spain

“…4 attached to the basin margins grading distally into low-gradient, hydrologically closed, shallow lakes located in the central basin areas (Cabrera and Sáez, 1987;Arenas and Pardo, 1999;Luzón, 2005;Nichols and Fisher, 2007;Sáez et al 2007) (Fig. 1A).…”
