Basic Geologic Problems of Loess in China

Basic Geologic Problems of Loess in China Abstract The geology of loess in China involves many problems. This paper deals only with the basic ones of the origin of loess, the geologic setting and palaeoenvironmental evolution leading to the formation of the Loess Plateau, and the regional stratigraphy of loess deposits, particularly the last problem. A better knowledge of the formation and development of the loess deposits in China has been obtained through analysis and correlation of lithostratigraphy, biostratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, climatostratigraphy and chronostratigraphy. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Acta Geologica Sinica (English Edition) Wiley
