From dust to dust: Quaternary wind erosion of the Mu Us Desert and Loess Plateau, China
The Ordos Basin of China encompasses the Mu Us Desert in the northwest and the Chinese Loess Plateau to the south and east. The boundary between the mostly internally drained Mu Us Desert and fluvially incised Loess Plateau is an erosional escarpment, up to 400 m in relief, composed of Quaternary loess. Linear ridges, with lengths of ~102–103 m, are formed in Cretaceous–Quaternary strata throug...
متن کاملMagnetic record of Mio-Pliocene red clay and Quaternary loess-paleosol sequence in the Chinese Loess Plateau
This article presents magnetic data of a 300-m-thick Mio-Pliocene red clay and Quaternary loess-paleosol sequence near Chaona town in the Central Chinese Loess Plateau. Detailed magnetostratigraphy shows that the aeolian red clay began to accumulate at ca. 8.1 Ma. Here, we presented a high-resolution rock magnetic data at 20-40 cm intervals within 4.5-8 ka span per sample of this section, which...
متن کاملSpatial Variability of Soil Erosion and Soil Quality on Hillslopes in the Chinese Loess Plateau
Soil erosion rates and soil quality indicators were measured along two hillslope transects in the Loess Plateau near Yan'an, China. The objectives were to: (a) quantify spatial patterns and controlling processes of soil redistribution due to water and tillage erosion, and (b) correlate soil quality parameters with soil redistribution along the hillslope transects for different land use manageme...
متن کاملSpatial Analysis on Surface Deformation by Soil Erosion in the Chinese Loess Plateau Using Insar Techniques
Monitoring the surface deformation over the loess hills could help us understand the dynamics of soil erosion, the extent of anthropogenic impacts, and the mitigation methods for the potential damage to local ecosystems, agricultural production, socioeconomic infrastructure, water quality, and air quality in the Loess Plateau and the surrounding areas. The objectives of this study were to compr...
