Fluvial evolution of the Rhine during the last interglacial-glacial cycle in the southern North Sea basin: A review and look forward

Because of glaciation and resulting depocentre configuration, the Netherlands in NW Europe thus offers a very good opportunity to study the transgressive interglacial lower-deltaic records and falling-stage preservation thereof - both key elements for understanding sedimentary development over full 100-ky glacial-interglacial cycles of climate and base-level change.
