RT Journal Article T1 Edad de las playas colgadas y de las turberas de Oyambre y Merón (Cantabria) T1 Age of an ancient beach level and of the peat deposits In Oyambre and Meron (Cantabrian coast, Spain ) A1 Garzón Heydt, Guillermina A1 Alonso, Ángela A1 Torres, Trinidad de A1 Llamas, J. AB Two depositional sequences related to sea level changes are described and dated for two nelghborough beaches in Cantabria (Northern Spain). The oldest unit is a beach sequence consisting of basal gravels, clays and eolian sands. The aminoacid racemizalion analisis of two types of mol uses show a discrepant age (77 570 + 73 400 and 21 140 ± 9 400 y BP). Outcrop data and general sea stages arrangement , however, allows us to support a preglaciar age for this beach level. The second unit incises at least three meters in the older one and consists of peat deposits with tree stems and organic matter rich clays, representing an estuarine plaine. Radiocarbon dating gives an age of at least 6 210 ± 85 y BP for it and can be interpreted as the postglacial sea rise level PB Sociedad Geológica de España YR 1996 FD 1996 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/12161 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/12161 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 13 jun 2026
