Morphological record of pedogenesis and landscape evolution in the upper quaternary pedosediments within the upper Volga river basin

Бюллетень Почвенного института им. В.В. Докучаева, 2016
The morphological record of pedogenesis (mostly at a micromorphological scale) and the features of paleosols developed at the northern geographical extremity of the MIS3 paleopedoshpere (including the Bryansk fossil soils) are described.

Pedodiagenetic Characterization of Cretaceous Paleosols in Southwest Minas Gerais, Brazil

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
The influence of post-burial geological processes on preserving pedogenic properties has great importance in identifying ancient paleosols both in the field and in a laboratory.

HOLOCENE ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE IN SOUTH-EAST ALTAI EVIDENCED BY SOIL RECORD

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2019
The soils of Russian Altai highlands were used as a paleoenvironmental archive, as a source of dating material, and as a chronostratigraphic marker to describe Holocene environmental change in the studied area. Based on calibration intervals of 14C dates

Spatial Patterns of Chemical Weathering at the Basal Tertiary Nonconformity in California from Multispectral and Hyperspectral Optical Remote Sensing

Remote Sensing, 2019
Visible through shortwave (VSWIR) spectral reflectance of the geologic units across the basal Tertiary nonconformity (BTN) is characterized at three spatially disparate locations in California. At two of these sites, location-specific spectral endmembers

From alluvial fans to lacustrine systems: trace fossils applied to paleoenvironmental analysis in the Taubaté Basin (Brazil) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Geology
Studies integrating ichnology and sedimentology in paleoenvironmental interpretations are rare in Brazilian rift successions. This study applies an integrated ichno-sedimentological analysis to a well core from the Resende and Tremembé Formations ...

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Evidence for the continental origin of Pliocene deposits in the central Baja California peninsula, Mexico, and implications for controls on biodiversity

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

Late Pleistocene to Holocene environmental changes from δ13C determinations in soils at Teotihuacan, Mexico [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 2006
Stable carbon isotopic signature (δ13C) of soil organic matter (SOM) is used as a high-spatial resolution tool to infer environmental changes during late Pleistocene to Present in the Teotihuacan valley, Mexico.

Discriminating Arid Ecosystems and Tracking Desertification Dynamics: Evidence From Grain‐Size End‐Member in the Manas River Basin, Northern Tianshan Mountains

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10174-10186, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecosystem of the Manas River Basin, composed of mountains, oases, and deserts, constitutes an ideal natural laboratory for investigating surface processes and environmental evolution in arid regions. Elucidating the provenance, transport dynamics, and climate response mechanisms of surface sediments in this system is critical for advancing
