Auteur :
MAHANEY, W. C.

Description :
A sequence of paleosols investigated to reconstruct the weathering effects and climatic intensities that occurred during three interglacial periods on Mount Kenya. Scanning electron microscopy of the sand fractions in these paleosols reveals the full extent of weathering differences between interglacial and interstadial climates.
