Micromorphological investigations of the Late Quaternary loess–paleosol sequences of the Kashmir Valley, India

, 2015
The loess–paleosol sequences of the Karewa Group preserve a valuable repository of the Late Quaternary climatic changes and the landscape evolution history of the Karewa Basin of Kashmir Valley in their lithological and pedogenic records.

Mechanical response of deep circular shaft supported by steel frame and sprayed concrete in loess-paleosol sequence: A case study

Case Studies in Construction Materials
Loess has a large pore structure and well-developed vertical joints, belonging to a strong structural soil layer with good self-supporting properties. Generally, the actual lateral pressure exerted on underground structures is relatively small and its ...

Geochemical characteristics and environmental significance of Talede loess-paleosol sequences of Ili Basin in Central Asia

, 2013
The loess-paleosol deposit in Central Asia is a sensitive indicator of the evolution of the quaternary paleoclimate in the Westerlies, providing insight into the quaternary climate history and its relationship with global climatic changes.

Glacial‐Interglacial Climate Cycles of Atmospheric Hg Deposition: Insights From Hg Isotopes in Loess‐Paleosol Sequences on the Chinese Loess Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters
As a highly volatile heavy metal, Hg is transported over long distances in the atmosphere and enters global ecosystems via Hg(II) wet deposition and Hg(0) dry deposition.

Effects of Paleosol on the Collapsibility of Loess Sites under Immersion Test Conditions

The existence of multiple layers of red paleosol within loess strata presents a unique challenge due to its high hardness, which resists settlement deformation upon exposure to water. This attribute significantly influences the subsidence measurements of

Lack of correlation between paleoprecipitation and magnetic susceptibility of Chinese loess/paleosol sequences

, 2001
. We have conducted a detailed mineral magnetic study of loess unit 8 (L8) and paleosol unit 8 (S8) from three localities (Jingbian, Yichuan, and Duanjiapo) along a N-S transect in the Chinese loess plateau.
