The Long-Term Deep Loessal Sediments of Northeast China: Loess or Loessal Paleosols?

open access: yesQuaternary, 2023
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

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021
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]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
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

Atmospheric pCO2 Reconstruction of Early Cretaceous Terrestrial Deposits in Texas and Oklahoma Using Pedogenic Carbonate and Occluded Organic Matter

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
Pedogenic carbonate samples collected from three Lower Cretaceous (Aptian–Albian) fossil localities in Texas and Oklahoma were analyzed to develop paleoatmospheric pCO2 estimates by measuring the stable carbon isotopes of pedogenic calcite and their co ...

Late Pleistocene Climate and Dust Source From the Mobarakabad Loess–Paleosol Sequence, Northern Foothills of the Alborz Mountains, Northern Iran

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Paleoclimatic investigation of loess-paleosol sequences from northern Iran is important for understanding past changes in a region highly sensitive to shifts in precipitation, and along potential routes of past human migration.
