Pleistocenic buried abrasion platforms in southeastern "Tavoliere" (Apulia, south Italy)
Main Article Content
Abstract
The stratigraphies of about nine hundred water wells have been analyzed using computer techniques, in order to reconstruct the morphology of the roof of the "Argille subappennine" in the southeastern portion of the Tavoliere plain. In this way it has been possible to recognize nine buried plain surfaces, whose origin can be related to the presence of the sea during the middle-upper Pleistocene. The information collected, together with the first results proceeding from the study of continuous coring show the presence of several sedimentary cycles above the most recent abrasion platforms.
