The upper pleistocene loess of southern Tunisia: A statement

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 1988
AbstractOn the Matmata Plateau, the sedimentological characteristics of the peri‐desert loess and the interbedded palaeosols (particle‐size distribution; chemical and mineralogical composition of major components; trace elements; clay mineral assemblage; heavy mineral assemblage; SEM‐examined surficial textures of the quartz and palygorskite grains ...

Definition of the Middle–Upper Pleistocene boundary

Global and Planetary Change, 2003

Loess chronology of the Middle and Upper Pleistocene in Tadjikistan

Geologische Rundschau, 1998
The loess/paleosol sequences of Central Asia are continuous terrestrial records of the Quaternary period and enable detailed comparison with paleoclimatic archives such as marine and ice core records in order to reconstruct regional and global paleoclimatic and paleoecological development during the past 130 000 years.

Upper Pleistocene loess stratigraphy in Southern Germany

Quaternary Science Reviews, 1999
Abstract The detailed loess/paleosol sequences of Southern Germany provide a highly sensitive record of the regional climate and environmental changes of the Upper Pleistocene. Combined infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) and thermoluminescence (TL) dating was carried out on loess and loess derivatives at Upper Pleistocene-type sections from the ...

Biostratigraphy of the Middle and Upper Pleistocene of the Caspian Region

Quaternary International, 2013
Biostratigraphy of the Caspian Pleistocene is based on changes in evolutionary patterns and ecological assemblage change of the mollusc genus Didacna Eichwald. The study of peculiarities and patterns in the spatial-temporal distribution of Didacna Eichwald in the deposits of the middle and upper Pleistocene of the Caspian region showed that the ...

Aspects of the Middle and Upper Pleistocene of the Upper Ouse Basin

1984
The thesis undertakes a lithostratigraphical examination of terrace and fluvioglacial gravels of the Upper Great Ouse basin, and part of the Nene basin, in order to provide a foundation for a Middle and Upper Pleistocene stratigraphy of a relatively little-researched area. Pebble-counts are used as a basis for Stratigraphie interpretation following the

Recent Developments in the Upper Pleistocene Prehistory of China

1987
Although the past decade of Sino-American rapprochement has witnessed the intensification of interest among Western prehistorians in the archaeology of China, nonetheless, the Pleistocene cultural sequence of that country remains poorly understood by non-Chinese specialists.

Miocene to Upper Pleistocene proboscids in Croatia

2010
U Hrvatskoj su na više od 90 nalazišta pronađeni skeletni ostatci proboscida (red Proboscidea Illiger, 1811 ; hrv. = rilaši). Većinom su to zubi, a nešto rjeđe i fragmentirane kosti. Osim sporadičnih in situ nalaza, fosilni ostatci rilaša potječu iz naplavina naših velikih rijeka: Save, Drave, Dunava i njihovih pritoka.
