Description :
Based on multivariate analysis of mollusk assemblages and magnetic susceptibility of the Eustis section in western Nebraska, the climate of the Peoria loess steppe was relatively mild and, in terms of annual precipitation, relatively moist during the advance stages of Woodfordian ice. It was cold and dry during ice retreat.
