  Article:   COASTAL KARREN FEATURES IN TEMPERATE MICROTIDAL SETTINGS: SPATIAL ORGANIZATION AND TEMPORAL EVOLUTION.

  Abstract:  Basin pools are the diagnostic feature of coastal karren landscape in temperate settings. According to size and connectivity parameters four morphological zones are identified along limestone coastal profiles. Each zone reflects the balance between the effects of physical and chemical weathering-erosion agents. Broadly, marine abrasion, bioerosion, and biologically driven solution show a larger influence seaward, whereas non-biologically driven solution enhances its participation landward.

Key words: coastal karren, basin pools, biokarst, Balearic Islands, Spain.
