DOI: 10.1002/esp.4779
Abstract: Permeability differences in multi‐cycle loess–paleosol aeolian sediments, which are still poorly understood, have the potential to significantly improve our understanding of climatic change during the glacial–interglacial periods of the Quaternary. In this study, the permeability… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2019.104153
Abstract: Abstract A brown paleosol developed on mafic lava and overlain by lapilli (Campanas profile, northern part of the Fogo Island, Cape Verde archipelago) was studied. The detailed iron speciation obtained by Mossbauer spectroscopy and magnetization… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2021.105445
Abstract: Abstract Studies of the loess-paleosol sequence of the center of the East European Plain have a long history. Previously, samples from loess-soil sections were taken for paleoreconstruction of climate and environment with low resolution, usually… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2017.02.042
Abstract: We obtained (U–Th)/He formation ages and cosmogenic ^3He concentrations for pisoliths from a paleosol of the Bohnerz Formation (Siderolithic) of Central Europe. The paleosol is exposed in the Almenbuhl quarry near Lohn, Canton Schaffhausen, Switzerland.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-73938-9
Abstract: Loess-paleosol sequences are terrestrial archives of past climate change. They may host traces of ancient microbial life, but little information is available on the recovery of microbial biomarkers from such deposits. We hypothesized that microbial… read more here.
