Provenance of loess material and formation of loess deposits on the Chinese Loess Plateau
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2002Abstract Results of a multiple, isotopic, chemical and mineralogical analysis of loess from the three northwestern inland basins (the Junggar Basin, the Tarim Basin and the Qaidam Basin) and the Loess Plateau region of China are summarized. They suggest a qualification of the conventional views that the three northwestern basins were the important ...

What is the mass of loess in the Loess Plateau of China?
Science Bulletin, 2019The Loess Plateau of China (LP) has the largest and thickest loess deposits in the world. Quantifying the amount of loess in the LP is crucial for investigating the accumulation and erosion of loess, and determining the regional soil and water resource capacity.

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 ...

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.

WIREs Computational Statistics, 2010
AbstractLinear least squares regression is among the most well known classical methods. This and other parametric least squares regression models do not perform well when the modeling is too restrictive to capture the nonlinear effect the covariates have on the response.

Collapsible Loess on the Loess Plateau of China
1995The aeolian silt accumulation making up the Loess Plateau of North China reaches more than 250m in thickness in the Lanzhou region. Regional studies have shown that there is a clear gradient in collapsibility from the dry north-west to the moist south-east of the Plateau.

The properties of glacial loess and the formation of loess deposits
Journal of Sedimentary Research, 1966Abstract Some loess is produced directly by glacial action in a two-stage process. Sand-sized quartz is first formed and then these grains are crushed. Quartz grains of about 80 mu are most easily raised and carried by the wind. Characteristic vertical structures of loess deposits are due largely to the cohesive nature of the material
