Sf. Xiong et al., A climatic reversal at the last interglacial-last glacial transition recorded in the loess section at Zhaitang, Beijing, CHIN SCI B, 44(6), 1999, pp. 571-575
A weakly developed paleosol was identified at S1-L1 transition of the loess
section of Zhaitang, Beijing. This paleosol may represent a climatic rever
sal which is associated with the strengthening in summer monsoon and correl
ated well with the climatic regression event documented in the paleoclimate
records from Greenland ice, marine sediments and European pollen at the la
st interglacial-last glacial transition.
