Landscape units based on the visual features of the relief have been distinguished in the “Barranco del Río Dulce Natural Park” (Spain). These units are geomorphic entities composed of several elementary landforms and characterized by a visual internal homogeneity, and contrast with other landscape units in their location, height, profile and gradients, reflecting their different evolution and genesis. Landscape units bear some subjectivity in their definition and in their boundary location due to the overlapping of geomorphic processes along time. Visual, compositional and conventional boundaries have been used for mapping. Neogene landscape evolution mainly occurred through thrust faulting at the Iberian Ranges-Tagus Basin boundary, driving tectonic uplift and erosion of the Ranges and correlative sedimentation in the Basin. Erosion of the Ranges occurred with the development of planation surfaces, leaving minor isolated reliefs in the upland plains landscape. The lowering of the base level, caused by the endorheic–exorheic transition of the Tagus Basin in the Pliocene, originates fluvial entrenchment and water table lowering with development of the first fluvial valleys and the capture of karstic depressions. Two subsequent phases of renewed fluvial incision (Pleistocene) lead to abandonment of some Pliocene valleys, fluvial captures, and development and reincision of tributaries

Durante 2015 tuvo lugar una exploración geotécnica y geofísica en el desierto de Atacama (Chile) para el diseño de una planta solar fotovoltaica. Los datos de resistividad obtenidos en la Fm. El Batea resultaron extremadamente elevados (107Ω•m), por lo que se llevó a cabo un muestreo de las unidades geológicas presentes para su estudio mineralógico mediante difracción de rayos X (DRX). La composición mineral de la Fm. El Batea muestra una casi total ausencia de humedad y una muy baja porosidad. Estos factores producen que la componente electrolítica en esta formación sea casi despreciable, y su comportamiento eléctrico coincide con la conductividad de sus fases minerales casi en estado puro. Estas características se deben a las extremas condiciones ambientales en el desierto de Atacama. La formación El Batea ha supuesto una barrera a la evapotranspiración, siendo los valores de resistividad de la formación infrayacente prácticamente normales (103-104Ω•m).
