A high-resolution micromorphological record of the Late Quaternary paleosols from Ganga–Yamuna interfluve: Stratigraphic and paleoclimatic implications

open access: yes, 2010
This study reports the micromorphological record of a continuous set of samples from paleosol-bearing intervals of two subsurface cores of ∼50 m depth representing typical pedosedimentary sequences of the Ganga–Yamuna interfluve in the western Ganga ...

Indicators for identifying aquic conditions in paleosols: First approximation

open access: yes
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

open access: yesContributions 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 ...

Paleosols of the Oligocene of Nebraska

open access: yes, 1955
Prominent paleosol ( buried or fossil soil) complexes occur at the top of the middle Orella, upper Orella, lower Whitney, and upper Whitney in the Brule formation of Nebraska; and at the top of the Lower Oreodon, Middle Oreodon, Upper Oreodon ...

The Tlaxcala basin paleosol sequence: a multiscale proxy of middle to late Quaternary environmental change in central Mexico

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2014
The Central Mexican Highlands still lack a consistent scenario of Quaternary environmental evolution, especially for the period before the last glacial/interglacial cycle.
