Reconstruction of the Misery Point area from the Middle Pleistocene to the Present. a Late part of the Middle Pleistocene (MIS 13–9): Lower Pleistocene deposits are affected by pedogenic and karstic (cave formation) processes. FMC = flank-margin cave. b Early part of the last interglacial. The cave has been opened and is flooded during the MIS 5e highstand leading to the formation of the serpulid bioherm. c Present-day situation. FMC = flank-margin cave. TRP = terra-rossa paleosols
