During Late Cenozoic the lead geomorphologic processes in the western Priokotie changed together with relief and climate evolution. Plains with areas of hummocky topography have been transformed into deeply dissected low and middle mountains
Cenozoic. Each time interval was characterised by specific set of lead geomorphologic processes and of extreme, catastrophic, ones, which were locally distributed. Analysis of relief evolution allows to date the formation of the ground features'main types.

Combining fieldwork and surface data, the AA. have reconstructed the Cenozoic structural and tectonic evolution of the Northern Bresse. Analysis of drainage network geometry allowed to detect 3 major fault zones trending NE-SW, E-W and NW-SE
, and smooth folds with NNE trending axes, all corroborated with shallow well data in the graben and fieldwork on edges. Cenozoic paleostress succession was determined through fault slip and calcite twin inversion, taking into account data of relative
Sequence stratigraphy, biotic change, Sr 87/Sr 86 record, paleoclimatic history, and sedimentation rate change across a regional late Cenozoic unconformity in Arctic Canada

The morphostructural development of the Pamir and Tian-Shan mountains in the Cenozoic Era is presented. Some observations of their Late Quaternary and present-day relief changes which give evidence on the style and dynamics of recent orogeny
The aim of this paper is to explain the landscape evolution and late Cenozoic glacial history. The AA. start with a description of the geographic setting and morphology of the western Asgard Range. They then describe surficial sediments that rest
The aim of this paper is to produce a detailed geologic record of late Cenozoic glacial and non-glacial sedimentation and paleoclimate change. The Quatermain Mountains are ideal for recording ice-sheet fluctuations and paleoclimate change because

Field observations of weathering processes and the related landforms, combined with laboratory analyses of weathering products, permit a synthetic evaluation of Late Cenozoic weathering environments in the Sør Rondane Mountains, an arid upland
