История развития побережий Каспийского моря в плейстоцене

Аннотация

Oscillations of Caspian Sea level, neotectonic structure and climatic changes were the main factors of coasts' formation. Phased development took place in Pleistocene in accordance with major stages of transgressions and regressions: Prebakynian (Tyurkyanian), Bakinian, Urundgiksko-Singilian. Early-Khazarian, Chernoyarsko-Late-Khazarian, Atelian, Khvalynian, and Late-Khvalynian (New-Caspian). Most of the stages have complex structure: some minor transgressive maxima, which coincide with warm climatic epochs may be marked in every regressive stage.
