Özet

Reconstructing and interpreting past hydrological system changes from the Quaternary sediment-landform record presents many challenges especially when trying to establish causality. In such circumstances attempting to isolate individual drivers is perhaps unrealistic and thus inferences are made with respect to the combined influence ofmultiple controls and constraints. In this paper we seek to interpret the landscape responses recorded in the sediment-landform record of the Early Pleistocene Gediz valley, western Turkey, within the context of interacting geodynamic and hydrodynamic system changes.
