A long-term flood discharge record derived from slackwater flood deposits of the Llobregat River, NE Spain

Slackwater palaeoflood deposits were identified along two bedrock gorge study reaches of the Llobregat River, at Pont de Vilomara and Monistrol de Montserrat. The compiled palaeoflood record consists of two principal flood series: (a) a relatively complete record of low to high magnitude flood event...
