contents U/Th dating of Quaternary travertines at the middle River Llobregat (NE Iberian Peninsula, Northwestern Mediterranean).Correlation with sea-level changes J.A. Luque R. Julià Ciencias de la Tierra Sea Holocene Th dating Travertine Pleistocene The dating of the fluvial terraces of the middle River Llobregat enabled one to establish a correlation betweenthe sedimentation episodes in continental zones and in neighbouring deltaic and coastal areas in the NE Iberiancontinental margin. The fluvial Terraces 4 (+85-95 m above river level) and 3 (+55-65 m above river level) aremade up by or include travertines, which were deposited around 350,000 and 111,000 years ago, respectively.These radiometric ages correspond to two high sea level periods: the Eemian interglacial (isotopic stage 5e) andthe interglacial related to isotopic stage 9. However, other travertine units in the valley, such as the Can Tobellastaggered cascade travertines, were formed during the Holocene, probably due to hydrothermal spring activityrelated to the tectonic contact between the Catalan Coastal Ranges and the Ebro Basin. 2007 artículo científico 1695-6133 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=50550108 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=505 Geologica Acta: an international earth science journal application/pdf Universitat de Barcelona Geologica Acta: an international earth science journal (España) Num.1 Vol.5
