The Long-Term Deep Loessal Sediments of Northeast China: Loess or Loessal Paleosols?
Previous research assumed deep buried loess as the initial composition of the overlying paleosol and failed to address the long-term continuous pedogenic weathering history in the deep loess-paleosol sequence, which was attributed to little understanding

Strength and structure of Q3paleosol
Paleosol is an important part of loess stratum, but there are few researches on its mechanical properties.In order to study the strength and structure of paleosol, Q3paleosol in Xi'an is taken as the research object.Through the way of soil mechanics, the

The distribution of organic carbon fractions in a typical loess-paleosol profile and its paleoenvironmental significance [PDF]
Background The loess-paleosol sequence on the Loess Plateau has been considered an important paleoclimatic archive to study global climatic and environmental changes in the Quaternary. So far, little attention has been paid to the characteristics of soil

Priabonian, late Eocene chronostratigraphy, depositional environment, and paleosol-trace fossil associations, Pipestone Springs, southwest Montana, USA [PDF]
Sanidine 40Ar/39Ar ages of lapilli tuffs and the mammalian fauna of Pipestone Springs strata provide a high-resolution chronostratigraphy for upper Eocene (Priabonian) rock units in southwestern Montana.

Coastal dunes of Urup Island (Kuril Islands, North-Western Pacific): palaeoclimatic and environmental archive [PDF]
The Late Holocene phases of aeolian processes have been reconstructed on the basis of dune fields construction. The palaeoenvironmental studies were targeted to following problems: 1) to determine the periods of higher and lower activity of aeolian ...
