The distribution of Van Genuchten model parameters on soil-water characteristic curves in Chinese Loess Plateau and new predicting method on unsaturated permeability coefficient of loess. [PDF]
The unsaturated permeability coefficients are often used to solve geotechnical problems associated with unsaturated soils. But it is very difficult to measure.

Genesis of Loess Particles on the Chinese Loess Plateau
The sources of the sediments in distinct areas of the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) are still disputed, starting with the particle formation in the original desert areas, as well as the neighboring river systems.

Tetraether biomarker records from a loess-paleosol sequence in the western Chinese Loess Plateau [PDF]
The ubiquitous occurrence of glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) in soils and their ability to record temperature and environmental changes offer the prospect of independently reconstructing continental paleotemperature and paleoenvironment from the loess-paleosol sequences (LPS) from the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP).

Spatially variable provenance of the Chinese Loess Plateau [PDF]
AbstractLoess sequences of the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) compose one of the most complete Neogene–Quaternary terrestrial paleoclimatic archives. Understanding the CLP's sediment sources is critical to tracing Asian aridification, atmospheric circulation patterns, and Asian monsoon evolution.

Geochemical and Clay-Size Minerals Evidence for the Provenance of LQC Loess Deposits in the Central Shandong, Northern China [PDF]
The identification of the Shandong loess provenance adjacent to the floodplain of the Yellow River external the Loess Plateau is very important for revealing the path of dust accumulation and paleoenvironment, which has aroused widespread concern.

Groundwater recharge in hillslopes on the Chinese Loess Plateau
Study region: Yuanzegou Watershed in Qingjian, Wangdonggou watershed in Changwu, the Chinese Loess Plateau. Study focus: Hillslopes are the predominant land form unit on Earth, and despite its importance in maintaining groundwater supplies in many parts of the world, groundwater recharge on hillslopes is poorly understood.
