The loess-paleosol and related subaereal sequence in Hungary in Loess (INQUA).

Auteur :
PECSI, M.

Description :
The loess of type localities is subdivided into 3 subseries on the basis of the paleosols allowing even an Eurasian comparison for their lithostratigraphy. It can be concluded that the reddish paleosol developed under climatic, and in general, ecological conditions (probably warm subhumid with rapid cyclical climatic changes) differing from the cold and semiarid or semidesert environments of typical loess formation. The former conditions were characteristic, from the lower Pliocene to the lower Pleistocene, on continental or global scales.
