Plio-Quaternary coastal uplift along the western Iberian Margin: insights from ...
Gouveia, Margarida; Cunha, Pedro; Martins, António; Stokes, Martin; Gomes, Alberto; Falguères, Christophe; Voinchet, Pierre; Jacques Bahain, JeanThis study presents a detailed geomorphological and geochronological analysis of a marine terrace staircase developed into the Peniche Peninsula (Portugal), a rocky headland of Jurassic carbonate bedrock located in the central sector of the Western Iberian passive margin. The marine terrace levels are described morphologically and sedimentologically, but also dated using ESR and U-Series methodologies. The mari...

Plio-Quaternary coastal uplift along the western Iberian margin: insights from ...
Gouveia, Margarida; Cunha, Pedro; Martins, António; Falguères, Christophe; Voinche, Pierre; Gomes, Alberto; Bahain, Jean-Jacques; Stokes, MartinThis study provides a detailed geomorphological study of the Peniche Peninsula, located in westernmost Iberia, a resistant rocky limestone headland subjected to high energy Atlantic Ocean coastal processes. We have used field mapping, surveying, sedimentary facies analysis, geochronology (electron spin resonance [ESR]; U-Series), but also identification of fossils and lithic artefacts, in order to: 1) reconstru...
