Late Quaternary evolution of alluvial fans in the Playa, El Fresnal region, northern Chihuahua desert, Mexico: Palaeoclimatic implications

The Playa El Fresnal area is a tilted terrane characteristic of an extensional basin. It is a half graben/tilted-block system with a playa-lake on the basin floor flanked by piedmonts covered by alluvial fans. Structural heterogeneities within normal fault zones influenced the geomorphic expression...
