Late Quaternary Palaeoclimate Reconstruction Based on Clay Minerals Assemblage from Preluca Tiganului (Gutai Mountains, Romania)

Late Quaternary Palaeoclimate Reconstruction Based on Clay Minerals Assemblage from Preluca Tiganului (Gutai Mountains, Romania)

Several core samples were extracted from the overgrown crater lake of Preluca Tiganului, NW Romania. The overall lithology and the mineral assemblages (mostly clay) described from different levels within these cores, suggest three main periods having humid or dry conditions. Based on these findings,...
