Alluvial ridge development and structure: Case study on the Upper Tisza, Hungary

The juxtaposition of natural levees results in alluvial ridges with a unique fluvial record. Our aims were to (1) identify the Upper Tisza (Hungary); (2) determine their morphological characteristics; and (3) reconstruct Late Quaternary history region. oldest paleo-meander was abandoned ca. 29 ka ago; referring early avulsion Tisza. Five identified intensive activity at 12-13 ka, 7.7-8.6 6.1-6.6 4.8 2.9 ago. Moderate indicated by Atlantic Subboreal paleosols. sedimentation rate paleo-channels (0.3-0.5 mm/y) on slow, influenced reactivation paleo-channel.
