Late Pleistocene marine coastal deposits of Formentera Island and S’Espalmador islet (Balearic archipelago, western Mediterranean): climatic and geomorphological evolution

Abstract

[eng] The primary aim of this study is to investigate the Pleistocene climate and sea level variations in Formentera Island and in the neighbouring islet of S’Espalmador by analysing the sedimentological, compositional, and taxonomical features of their littoral deposits and correlate them with different features and the various climatic substages of the MIS 5 in the western Mediterranean.
