In September 2016, the annual meeting of the International Union for Quaternary Research's
Loess and Pedostratigraphy Focus Group, traditionally referred to as a LoessFest, met in …

Recent investigations of the Semlac loess section in the south-eastern Carpathian Basin,
which is situated at an undercut slope position on the right bank of the Mureş River in its …

This is a contribution to the reconstruction of the eolian transport processes and wind
directions in south-eastern Europe during the Weichselian Pleniglacial. The study is based …

Magnetic fabric (MF) investigations complemented by geochemical and grain surface
analyses of the understudied and controversial marine isotope stage (MIS) 5 b, 4 and 3 …

This study utilizes four different methodological approaches to examine the prevailing
surface winds and their associated aeolian processes in Northern Serbia, focusing on the …

Abstract The Chornohora and Svydovets massifs represent the highest part of the Ukrainian
Carpathians (2061 m asl) and the north-eastmost mountain area in Europe, which was …

The source of aeolian sediments such as loess has been investigated since decades.
Reliable knowledge on potential dust sources is crucial to understand past climatic and …

Measurements of the anisotropy of whole-rock magnetic susceptibility (AMS) and U-Pb ages
of detrital zircons have been combined to define the palaeowind directions and sources of …

Atmospheric mineral dust is a poorly constrained yet extremely important component of the
climate system. Provenance studies from geologic dust archives are crucial to understand …

A summary of approximately three decades and greater than thirty loess magnetic fabric
studies is presented here. The revised studies cover various loess regions from the Chinese …
