Sedimentary properties of the middle-upper eocene formations in çardak, burdur and incesu, SW Turkey
The integration of sedimentological, palynological and palaeontological data in three dif erent outcrops in SW Turkey provides a clearer understanding of the palaeoenvironments in an area between the Çardak-Dazki{dotless}ri{dotless} Basin and the Isparta region during the Middle-Late Eocene.
