Abstract

The paper brings geomorphological characteristic of Neogene sediments and Pleistocene terraces of the Berounka (the left tributary to the Vltava). The localities of Neogene fluvial and fluvial-lacustrine sediments of Lower Miocene Age are clean-cut and neotectonically dislocated. The Pleistocene terraces (13 levels in 7 groups), diverging downstream, have been incorporated into the stratigraphical Pleistocene system.
