lateral movements in the Early Cretaceous. During this period, the Antarctic Peninsula area occupied an important paleogeographical position, near the junction of major new seaways that were opening between South America and Africa, along the eastern coast
of Africa, and between India and the Antarctic-Australasian block. The biogeographical affinities of ammonite faunas in the Antarctic Peninsula are briefly reviewed in the light of these changing paleogeographical conditions.
Implications structurales et paléogéographiques de la présence de Messinien à l'Ouest de Gibraltar. (Structural and paleogeographical implications of the existence of Messinian layers west of Gibraltar)
The Tokaj Mountains differ from the other volcanic mountains of Hungary by strike, heavy dissection, (a younger) age of volcanism, a great diversity of volcanic rocks, paleogeographic circumstances (frequent marine transgressions). The paper deals
Author compares three Hungarian key loess profiles on the basis of several parameters. Comparison of the horizontal and vertical distribution of parameter values aimed at drawing as many sedimentological and paleogeographical conclusions as possible
Modern presentation of the natural environment of Poland by team of more than 25 experts. The first part present the paleogeographic roots of present-day environment, the second describe the today resources and processes (including the human impact
Based on a joint analysis of molluscs, ostracods and mammals as well as available geological and paleogeographical information, an attempt was made to correlate the Pannonian sediments with those of Eastern and Mediterranean. DLO).
The range of Tokaj Mountains is not only different from the rest of our volcanic mountains because of its N-S direction, but also the duration and extent of its volcanism, its volcanic material ; and the paleogeographical circumstances were
Nouvel examen de quelques aspects controversés des idées cosmographiques des frères Colomb sur la base d'ouvrages modernes d'un paléogéographe espagnol, d'un géographe nord-américain et d'un navigateur historien. Discussion sur leurs connaissances
Paleosols of various age from the Russian Plain and Western Siberia were studied for their humus composition and physico-chemical properties. The permanent features of humus in paleosols useful for paleogeographical reconstruction and geoecological
and reflect different climatic and paleogeographical conditions. The A. emphasizes that the erosion gaps common in loess profiles exclude the reconstruction of some paleoclimatic events.
Paleogeographic evidence for the high valleys of New Guinea suggests that four advances and retreats of ice can be inferred within the period of probable human settlement. - (DWG)
The sequence of events in the lower Scheldt basin (Belgium) during the last 3 000 year is very complex. Remaining problems regarding its paleogeographical history include changes occurring at the rivermouth and the peat digging in the 13-14th
of Holocene geosystem dynamics is based on the use of paleogeographic, historical and archaeological investigations. Materials of aerospace survey take an important place in reconstruction of bygone epochs geosystems. - (L'A.).
of the paleogeographical conditions present-day analogues were searched. The key selection criterion was the type of sedimentation, which usually also implied similar climate, while tectonic position was only a third-rank consideration. - (AM)
is important not only to paleogeographic reconstructions of the area, but also to regional paleoclimate studies and the evolution of fish fauna in the Mojave desert.
ferruginized allochems) originated in a coastal area from which they have been removed by storm waves to the open shelf. A working model for their origin is proposed. Discussion of their paleogeographic value (indicators of geotectonic activities
enclosed within it and of the geometrical relations with a landslide body, provides interesting informations as paleogeographic and paleoclimatic as on the slope evolution within this part of the Eastern Liguria. - (NF)
In Sicily, the Africa-Europe convergence is testified by the time-space migration of a complex Chain-Foredeep system. The convergence took place from the Oligocene to the Pleistocene, involving several paleogeographic domains. Recent interpretation
of paleogeographic domains of the AfriacnMesozoic continental margin. the pre-orogenic successions show different types of deformation related to the Jurassic paleotectonicevolution of the southern Neotethys margin. - (NF)531276.
