Abstract
Abstract A preliminary report on Quaternary shore lines and dune systems of the extreme southern part of Madagascar. Consolidated beach deposits three meters above present sea level are attributed to a stillstand (here named the Karimbolian) which occurred prior to the pre-Flandrian regression. This three-meter level acts as a marker zone for identifying periods of dune formation. Present knowledge of the Quaternary history of the region is summed up in a table correlating climates, cycles of erosion and continental sedimentation, shore lines, and phases of dune formation.
