LOESS-SOIL QUATERNARY FORMATION - NEW METHODS OF STUDY
Loess-soil formations of the Quaternary age are an important evidence of the ancient landscapes and palaeoclimates. Therefore, the development of new, especially quantitative methods of the study of fossil soils and loess is a topical direction in Quaternary geology. This article presents a new method of the study of Quaternary loess and soils - the method of biomarkers - by the example of one of the reference localities (Kurtak geoarchaeological district). In the end, the results of the reconstruction of paleoclimates are presented.
