Description :
Genetic diagnostics of paleosols are based on the morphology of soil profiles, on the combination of the stable properties of microstructure and on the mineral composition of soils. A significant contribution to this knowledge has been made by investigations into loess-paleosol sequences of Eastern Europe and these data can be used for paleoclimatic reconstructions.
