En XII Reunión Nacional de Geomorfología (609-612), Santander, Cantabria: PUbliCan: Ediciones de la Universidad de Cántabria.978-84-86116-54-5https://hdl.handle.net/11441/137079The Asón massif is a carbonated low inclined platform of medium height, which rises to 1,618 meters at the Picón del Fraile peak. The Asón platform is a part of the Castro Valnera Massif, next to the upper Trueba and Miera valleys. These mountains are included in Basco-Cantabrian system, a single folded chain built with carbonated Cretaceous materials. The Asón platform was occupied by an icecap, with several ice tongues to the east. One of these tongues occupied the Asón gorge; another was directed towards the Soba valley. The front-lateral moraines of these glaciers are well defined and we obtained the absolute age (OSL, U-Th and 14C) of the till upper levels. From these ages, we conclude that here the local glacial maximum ended at 40 ka.application/pdf6spaAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Glacial morphologyGlacial phasesUpper PleistoceneAsón platformCantabrian Mountainsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
