Pleistocene aeolian deposits interbedded with marine deposits, colluvial deposits and palaeosols are observed in area of Es Copinar, Caló d'es Mort and Es Ram-s’Estufadors in Formentera Island. The sedimentary succession outcropping along the south-eastern coast of the island is characterized by a well-exposed high-resolution succession representing the main climate and geomorphological changes that occurred in this part of the western Mediterranean during the late Pleistocene. In this study we present the sedimentology and stratigraphy of carbonate sandstone, marine deposits, breccias and the aeolian-alluvial interaction deposits and silty facies, which allow describing ten major sedimentary units. Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating and the biochronostratigraphic fauna from the marine deposits indicate that their deposition took place during the Last interglacial-glacial cycle, and their succession recorded Heinrich and Dansgaard-Oeschger events (DO). In this sense, dryer and cold Heinrich events led to the formation of extensive coastal dune fields when the sea level dropped. On the other hand, relatively warmer and wetter DO events drove the development of palaeosols and the aeolian-alluvial interaction deposits.

在福门特拉岛的 Es Copinar、Caló d'es Mort 和 Es Ram-s'Estufadors 地区观察到更新世风成沉积物与海相沉积物、崩积沉积物和古土壤互层。沿该岛东南海岸出露的沉积层序的特点是暴露良好的高分辨率层序，代表了晚更新世西地中海该地区发生的主要气候和地貌变化。在这项研究中，我们介绍了碳酸盐砂岩、海相沉积物、角砾岩和风积-冲积相互作用沉积物和粉质相的沉积学和地层学，可以描述十个主要沉积单元。来自海洋沉积物的光学受激发光 (OSL) 测年和生物年代地层动物群表明它们的沉积发生在最后一次间冰期 - 冰期循环期间，并且它们的演替记录了 Heinrich 和 Dansgaard-Oeschger 事件 (DO)。从这个意义上说，当海平面下降时，干燥和寒冷的海因里希事件导致形成了广阔的沿海沙丘。另一方面，相对温暖和湿润的溶解氧事件推动了古土壤和风积-冲积相互作用沉积物的发展。
