Abstract

The landscape evolution of the San-Pablo river valley near the Serro-Gordo volcano during the end of the late glaciation is described. Stages in the development of landforms, soils, and catenae were distinguished. In the landscape evolution different rhythms and trends can be seen. Climatic changes - trend from warm OIS 3 to maximum of glaciation (LGM) and late glaciation (LGT) - OIS 2, and to new interglacial (Holocene) OIS 1 - played a leading role in the landscape formation. During this time aridization took place. At the limit of glaciation and interglacial time the tracers of disastrous water flow were found. It guttered down from the slopes of the Serro- Gordo to the San-Pablo river valley.
