Loess Deposit and Loess Landslides on the Chinese Loess Plateau

2012
Chinese Loess is a wind origin deposit which records the continuous Quaternary history. In the past 30 years, the loess stratigraphy has achieved a great advantage that the absolute age and the litho-strata were well defined by dating and correlating with deep sea core isotopic curves.

Influence of Anthropogenic Activities and Loess Dusts on the Rainwater Hydrochemistry in the Chinese Loess Plateau

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
Rainwater hydrochemistry is an important indicator for tracing anthropogenic input on air quality. As the fastest economically developing city in the northwestern China and the Chinese Loess Plateau, rainwater chemistry, sources of dissolved solutes, and the influence of loess dust on rainwater chemistry in Xi'an city is unclear. Inorganic ions, δD and

Formation of asymmetrical loess gullies in the northeastern loess plateau of China

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2021
AbstractLoess gullies are the most active and changeable landform unit on the Loess Plateau of China. Under the influence of inhomogeneous internal and external forces, various gully morphologies have been identified as specific forms of asymmetrical loess gullies in the northeastern Loess Plateau. Thus, the formation mechanisms of asymmetrical gullies

Climate of the Loess Plateau

2013
The Loess Plateau in China covers an area of ca. 640,000 km2, extending between 34° N and 40° N/100° E and 115° E, which is the middle region of China’s Yellow River. The climate of Loess Plateau is strongly influenced by latitude, longitude, and topography. It has a typical continental monsoon climate.

Vegetation of the Loess Plateau

2013
Natural vegetation on the Loess Plateau has been suffering gradual degradation over a long period, owing to human activities. As a result, hardly any original vegetation remains.

Soils on the Loess Plateau

2013
Morphological characteristics of soils on the Loess Plateau are products of its distinctive physical properties and behavior of water and salt in soil profiles. Various types of soils are distributed across the plateau, where rapid environmental changes occur because of long-term artificial contributors to loessial sediments. Soil health in this region

Experimental study on the disintegration of loess in the Loess Plateau of China

Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 2018
The strength and mechanical behaviour of loess are especially affected by water, and loess tends to disintegrate in the presence of water. Loess disintegration is closely related to the formation of caves, rills, and gullies on slopes and landslides. In this study, we conducted in situ tests and laboratory tests on Q3 Malan loess using self-developed ...

Agriculture on the Loess Plateau

2013
The Loess Plateau is considered the cradle of agricultural cultivation in China. The climate, ecology and geography of the area have created a unique farming system on the plateau. Agricultural output in the area increased 25-fold from 1980 to 2008, with more profound increases during the last 5 years because of the adoption of modern farming ...

Formation and evolution of a loess sinkhole in the southern Chinese Loess Plateau

CATENA, 2023
Sinkholes are formed by the collapse of the overlying strata or the subsidence of the ground from cracks or holes in the underlying strata, which are widely developed in the karst and loess regions over southern and northern China. These sinkholes have been explored intensively to infer their climatic and ecological significances, as well as the ...

Analysis on hydrologic-drought characteristics of loess plateau

2010 Seventh International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery, 2010
This paper analyzes hydrologic-drought characteristics from different sights, using runs theory, displacement theory, and stochastic process theory. It deals with happening, developing and diverting regularly for hydrologic-drought, and provides theoretical basis for regional water resources plan.
