Abstract: Abstract The electron spin resonance (ESR) dating method is thought to be limited to the Quaternary period. In this study, we attempt to expand the ESR dating range to the pre-Quaternary using three fault-zone samples… read more here.

Abstract: Pre-Quaternary Asian dust accumulation rate increases were caused by monsoon-driven erosion increases. Theories of late Cenozoic climate cooling assume that central Asian aridification and high dust accumulation rates in the Chinese Loess Plateau and the… read more here.
