Proximal Supply in Loess Deposition of the Chinese Loess Plateau
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2023AbstractPrevious studies suggest that the northeastern Tibetan Plateau has been the major source area for the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP); this contribution was used to prove that the Yellow River played a dominant role in transporting the materials from the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, making them available for the CLP.

Rainwater hydrochemistry is an important indicator for tracing anthropogenic input on air quality. As the fastest economically developing city in the northwestern China and the Chinese Loess Plateau, rainwater chemistry, sources of dissolved solutes, and the influence of loess dust on rainwater chemistry in Xi'an city is unclear. Inorganic ions, δD and

Formation and evolution of a loess sinkhole in the southern Chinese Loess Plateau
CATENA, 2023Sinkholes are formed by the collapse of the overlying strata or the subsidence of the ground from cracks or holes in the underlying strata, which are widely developed in the karst and loess regions over southern and northern China. These sinkholes have been explored intensively to infer their climatic and ecological significances, as well as the ...

Undetection of Australasian microtektites in the Chinese Loess Plateau
Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2022Abstract Australasian strewn field of tektites and microtektites, formed by a large impact event at ~0.788 Ma, is the youngest and largest known strewn field on Earth. The location of its source crater is still unconfirmed after nearly 60 years of exploration.

Loess Stratigraphy and Loess Landslides in the Chinese Loess Plateau
2020Chinese Loess is a dust deposit brought by wind from North-West desert. In the past four decades, the age and the strata of the loess stratigraphy were well defined by dating and correlating with deep sea core isotopic curves. A standard loess stratigraphic profile and the correlation among the different areas are introduced, and typical river terrace ...

New insights into loess formation on the southern margin of the Chinese Loess Plateau
CATENA, 2021Abstract The Loess Plateau has been identified as one of the most important areas for dust particles deposition and considered as one of the key areas for studying the global climate change and regional responses. In this study, a continuous loess profile, located on the southern margin of the Loess Plateau, was selected to analyze microstructure of ...

Characteristics of loess landslides triggered by different factors in the Chinese Loess Plateau
Journal of Mountain Science, 2021Loess landslides are one of the most serious geological disasters in the Chinese Loess Plateau. Research has revealed that earthquake, rainfall, and human activities are common triggers for loess landslides. In order to study the relationship and characteristics of these landslides triggered by different factors, the paper uses historic landslide data ...

Quantifying paleoprecipitation of the Luochuan and Sanmenxia Loess on the Chinese Loess Plateau
Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2016Abstract Paleoprecipitation is one of the most important paleoclimatic factors for monsoon studies. Magnetic properties of the Chinese loess/paleosol sequences have been demonstrated to be controlled strongly by the mean annual precipitation (MAP). In this study, temporal variations of MAPs were systematically investigated for the Luochuan (LC) and ...

Loess Deposit and Loess Landslides on the Chinese Loess Plateau
2012Chinese Loess is a wind origin deposit which records the continuous Quaternary history. In the past 30 years, the loess stratigraphy has achieved a great advantage that the absolute age and the litho-strata were well defined by dating and correlating with deep sea core isotopic curves.
