“…In Sebryakovo-Mikhailovka, Korostelyovo, and Gun'ki sections the Salyn soil micromorphology studies revealed the presence of large rhomb-shaped pedofeatures of gypsum and carbonates. Similar forms of gyp-sum were described in the Salyn paleosol in the Azov Sea region (Velichko et al 2017a;Velichko et al 2017b;Panin et al 2018); that gives ground for suggestion on a similarity in the soil-forming processes all over the south of the East European Plain. Gypsum is present in the soil as a concentration of small and larger crystals.…”

“…So loess-paleosol sequences (LPS) record and keep information of the soils of past epochs (Velichko and Morozova 2015;Zykin and Zykina 2015;Sycheva and Khokhlova 2016;Sedov et al 2016;Tabor et al 2017;Costantini 2017;Panin et al 2018). Quite a number of studies were aimed at the paleosol sequences on the East European Plain (Morozova 1981;Bolikhovskaya 1995;Velichko 2002;Rusakov and Korkka 2004;Dlussky 2007;Panin 2007;Glushankova 2008;Sycheva et al 2017;a.o.). The multidisciplinary approach used in those studies (including analyses of the soil morphology and micromorphology, paleomagnetic characteristics, physical and chemical properties, pollen analysis, etc) provided a possibility of reconstructing landscapes and climates of the past.…”

“…In paper we focus the attention on the micromorphology of the Late and Middle Pleistocene paleosols. The micromorphological studies of paleosols make it possible to recognize specific features of the soil structure at the micro-level (Matvishina 1982;Bronger and Heinkele 1989;Bronger et al 1998;Nettleton et al 2000;Kemp 1999;Kemp 2013;a.o.). In particular, that approach permits to identify pedofeatures of Ca, Fe and Mn, and also other features that may be interpreted as manifestations of certain soil-forming processes (Gerasimova et al 1992;Fedoroff et al 2010).…”

In this paper we focused on the micromorphology of the Late and Middle Pleistocene paleosols exposed in twelve loess-paleosol sequences sections in the central part of the East European Plain. Each studied paleosol complex known as Mesin (MIS 5), Kamenka (MIS 6 (8) -7 ( 9)), and Inzhavino (MIS 8 (10) -9 (11)) pedocomplexes (PCs) consists typically of two members, the earlier -main -phase of the soil development taking place during an interglacial, and the later one -at the subsequent interstadial time. Interglacial paleosols formation is associated with the thermal optimum of climatic macrocycles and corresponds to conditions close to modern in the territory under consideration. Interstadial paleosols formation characterizes the intervals within the glacial period, accompanied by an increase in heat and moisture. However, the heat supply of such intervals did not reach modern level in this region (Velichko and Morozova 2015). As follows from the analysis of the soil micromorphology over the studied area, the soil microstructure experienced notable changes under changing latitudinal zonality. During the interglacial periods clay coatings and Fe-Mn pedofeatures dominated the soil microfabric; in the south loesspaleosol sequences coatings are in negligible quantities, Fe-Mn pedofeatures decrease in amount, and carbonate pedofeatures appear instead. In the microfabric of the interstadial paleosols, Fe-Mn pedofeatures are abundant, but unlike interglacial paleosols, the coatings are rare. Basically, the coatings are humus-clayey in composition, but in the more southern sections coatings are absent.
