摘要: Abstract Palaeosols in glacial environments, particularly those representing global interglacial periods, are important stratigraphic markers and can potentially provide valuable insight on palaeoenvironments postglacial landscape evolution. Surface soils formed sediment evidence their relative age, therefore be of great value mapping correlation targeting numerical dating efforts. Studies soil chronosequences especially these interpretations palaeosols, but it is also essential to take into account the complex response soil-forming processes varying position, parent materials, climate, vegetation.
