Résumé

The Bureba Corridor is a depression bounded by the Cantabrian Mountains to the north and the Sierra de la Demanda to the south, which connected the Duero and Ebro basins during the Neogene. However, during the Quaternary, the incision of the fluvial valleys has generated very different topographical features, creating the current hydrographic watershed between the two basins. In this paper we present the first studies focused on determining the terraces sequence of the Bureba Corridor valleys draining to the Ebro valley, particularly in the Oca and Tirón valleys, where at least 17 fluvial levels developed from the Early Pleistocene up to the present time.
