This paper illustrates the new subsurface investigation performed on the area of the «Terrazzo di Livorno» allowing the identification of eight lithostratigraphic units, which were correlated with known sedimentary units previously described for the area. The subsurface geometries of some of these units were defined for the fist time. The implications for the presence of the two coastal marine arenitic beds («Panchina» I and II, Auct.), deposited during the marine isotope stage 5 are also discussed. This study also identified some important unconformities which can allow the definition of at least one allostratigraphic unit.

Abstract
This paper illustrates the new subsurface investigation performed on the area of the «Terrazzo di Livorno» allowing the identification of eight lithostratigraphic units, which were correlated with known sedimentary units previously described for the area. The subsurface geometries of some of these units were defined for the fist time. The implications for the presence of the two coastal marine arenitic beds («Panchina» I and II, Auct.), deposited during the marine isotope stage 5 are also discussed. This study also identified some important unconformities which can allow the definition of at least one allostratigraphic unit.File in questo prodotto:
