Loess-like deposits in Harbutowice, southern Wielickie Foreland
Keywords:
Polish Carpathians, Pleistocene, Denekamp Interstadial, palaeosolAbstract
Three beds of the loess-like deposits, separated by deluvial-solifluction and weathering deposits, were distinguished. The oldest loess-like deposits, together with the weathering and solifluction ones, were associated with the older Pleniglacial. The second bed of the loess-like deposits together with deluvial and solifluction ones were accumulated during the Interplenilacial. Deposition terminated with soil forming processes, which led to development of a palaeosol during the Denekamp Interstadial, 14C dated at 31 200±1000 ka BP. The youngest loess-like deposits, together with deluvial and weathering ones, represent the younger Pleniglacial.Downloads
