Abstract

ABSTRACT: Rossato S., Monegato G. & Mozzi P., Investigating evidences of Quaternary glaciations in the Prealpine environment of the Astico valley. (IT ISSN 0394-3356, 2011) In the Astico valley (Venetian Prealps) some glacial, fluvioglacial and glaciolacustrine deposits were found. They are attributed to a pre-LGM glacial advance which reached further out in the valley. Geomorphological and stratigraphic data support this hypothesis. It is also pointed out the presence of a tectonic guidance in the developing of the Astico fluvial network.
