Abstract(s)
Bem conhecida até ao Miocénico, a Bacia Algarvia carecia de um estudo aprofundado para o Neogénico terminal e Quaternário. Quando me foi proposto o lema "Litostratigrafia do Quaternário
no Algarve" e se fizeram as primeiras campanhas de campo, fui confrontada com um problema que se afigurou desde o início, deveras difícil: a separação de unidades terrígenas, de outras unidades igualmente terrígenas e aparentemente muito idênticas. Agrupadas sob uma única designação, as
"Areias de Faro-Quarteira", de idade mal conhecida, encontravam-se cartografadas como Plio-Plislocénicas.
Well known as far back as the Miocene, the Algarve Basin (S Portugal), was sadly lacking in a detailed study of lhe upper Neogene and the Quaternary. When the theme "Lithostratigraphy" of the Algarve Quaternary" was suggested to me and the first field studies were made, we were aware problem from the very start, which would be difficult to resolve: The separation of clastic units, from other similarly clastic, seemingly identical, grouped under only one heading: "Areias de Faro-Quarteira", mapped as Plio-Pleistocene.
