Abstract
En la confluencia de los ríos Duero y Tera se identifica una pequeña cubeta
rellena de depósitos aluviales desde el Pleistoceno medio-superior, pertenecientes
principalmente a la terraza +7-9 m, y a la actual llanura de inundación.
Estas unidades morfológicas son comunes para ambos ríos, aunque
presentan diferencias sedimentológicas en granulometría y naturaleza
de cantos, predominando los elementos más gruesos para los depósitos del
Tera, y los arenosos para los de la llanura de inundación del Duero
At the confluence of the rivers Duero and Tera, a small cuvette has been identified. This cuvette has been filled with alluvial deposits that date from the Middle-Upper Pleistocene. It belongs is situated mostly on river terrace the +7-9 m river terrace and on the present-day flood plain. These morphological units are common between the two rivers, though the granulometry and nature of the pebbles of the sediments is different, such that the larger elements predominate in the Tera deposits and the sandier ones in the floodplain of the Duero
