Abstract
In the paper, after presenting the terraces identification methodology (field research, drilling data, fauna remains, cartographic materials, satellite images, and bibliographic sources), describes rock type structure and morphometric parameters of terraces and rivers beds levels in the area of the biggest hydrographic basin located between the Prut and Nistru rivers – the Raut river basin. They identified and described five Pleistocene terraces and two levels of the upper Pliocene age in the river’s valleys. A detailed rivers terraces levels analysis showed that fault and folded formations found in the sedimentary cover of Moldovan plate, together with hydrologic characteristics and basic level oscillations were part of the fluvial morphogenesis during Neogene and Pleistocene age.
