Continental France and Belgium during the early Cretaceous: paleoweatherings and paleolandforms
International audience ; During the early Cretaceous, successive tectonic phases and several sea level falls resulted in the emersion of the main part of western Europe and the development of thick “lateritic” weathering. This long period of continental evolution ended with the Upper Cretaceous transgressions. During this period, the exposed lands displayed a mosaic of diverse morphologies and weathered landscapes.Bauxites are the most spectacular paleoweathering features, known for long in southern France.
