Micromorphology of paleosols at the continental border of the Buenos Aires province, Argentina
Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018 The sediments with loessial characteristics of the Pampean plain are called “loess y limos pampeanos” (Pampean loess and silts), to distinguish those of purely eolian origin (loess) from those reworked by water (silts). In the continental border of

Val Sorda: An upper Pleistocene loess-paleosol sequence in northeastern Italy
Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018 The upper Pleistocene loess-paleosol sequence of Val Sorda (northeastern Italy) is investigated with paleopedological, micromorphological, and mineralogical methods. Special emphasis is placed on magnetic parameters and analysis of clay minerals.

Indicators for identifying aquic conditions in paleosols: First approximation
Identifying paleosols with aquic conditions is essential for understanding the evolution and distribution of ancient wetland systems. Yet there are no guidelines for paleopedologists for writing field descriptions to target properties that indicate ...

Magnetic susceptibility record of loess/paleosol sequence: Case study from south-west Slovakia
Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2009 The paper proposes a new method to distinguish between paleosols and glacial loess deposits. The aim of our study is to test whether magnetic susceptibility measure- ments can be used as proxies for determining the boundary between the loess and ...
