Floral communities in terrestrial habitats such as steppes are highly sensitive to regional climate changes. Here, we generated carbon and nitrogen isotope profiles for soil organic matter (SOM) in the Weinan loess-paleosol section in... more
In the early 1980s, Ding Fang ’s earliest sketches still carried the characteristics of social realism. With the influence of Western culture in the "New Enlightenment", he has transformed into the practice of modernist oil paintings and... more
Magnetic susceptibility (MS) of surface sediment varies systematically across the Loess Plateau in central China, decreasing exponentially from >200×10−8 m3/kg at the northern margin of the Qinling Shan to ≤30×10−8 m3/kg near the... more

SUMMARY This paper deals with the magnetic properties (magnetic susceptibility, saturation isothermal remanent magnetization (SIRM), magnetomineralogicl parameters), the contents of heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn) and their... more

The 28 m high-resolution Shajinping loess section in Lanzhou on the western Chinese Loess Plateau records a 60 ka, millennial summer monsoon variation. The record shows that Asian summer monsoons have rapid episodic pulse enhancements... more
Geomagnetic excursions are prominent short-lived features (normally < 5 kyr) of the Earth’s magnetic field and lie temporally between Microchrons (Laj & Channell 2007) and short time intervals of anomalously high secular variation.... more
Investigation of the global loess record—primarily as a palaeoclimatic archive—continues unabated. One important aspect of this research effort is the determination of the magnetic properties of the loess itself and of the palaeosols... more
