Geomorphic and climatic implications of relict openwork block accumulations near Thabana-Ntlenyana, Lesotho

Auteur :
SUMMER, P.D.

Description :
Conflicting reports appear in the literature from geomorphic studies describing the colder Late Pleistocene environmental conditions of the Lesotho Highlands. The aim of this study is to show the widespread existence of openwork accumulations in the Sani Top-Thabana-Ntlenyana region, to provide additional detail on the characteristics and hence formative mechanisms of openwork slope deposits, and to consider the paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic implications.
