Palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of the early Anisian from sedimentology and plant remains in the SE Iberian Range (E Spain)

A sedimentologic, taphonomic and palaeoclimatic analysis reveals gradation from riparian hygrophytic vegetation to semi-arid xerophitic vegetation across the alluvial complexes and a progressive aridification through time. A comparison with other areas shows that this association is similar to coeval floras of Iberia and of the “Grès à Voltzia” Formation of northeastern France.
