En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the intricate relationship between geology and sediment production, this book explores how the erosion of a mountainous area, specifically in Calabria, Italy, provides insights into its geological history. It presents a systematic, quantitative analysis of sediment flux and mass balances at an active plate margin, highlighting both past and present erosion rates. By offering a detailed case study, it aims to serve as a foundational resource for researchers studying terrigenous sediment provenance in similar geological contexts worldwide.
