The reported data also appear to suggest that the mid-Holocene was drier in the American side of the Pacific (Baker et al, 2001, Bartlein et al, 1984Dean and Schwalb, 2000;Forman et al, 1992;Mason and Kuzila, 2000;Olson et al, 1997) and wetter in the Asian side of the Pacific as discussed above.…”

“…Paleowinds are recognized as northerly to northwesterly (Forman et al, 2008) as indicated by loess distribution as well as the weak trend of dunes in the area (south-southwest to north-northeast). Some inconsistencies in loess thickness and particle size from the source region suggest variable south to southwesterly winds (Olson et al, 1997) that may also have reworked the dunes to some degree.…”

Muhs et al (1996) recognized an eolian episode in northeastern Colorado sometime between 11,000 and about 4000 yr B.P, and Olson et al (1997) also report such an episode in western Kansas.

Eolian and soil stratigraphy and radiocarbon ages of soil humates were used to reconstruct landscape evolution at a site (25KH67) in western Nebraska along the South Platte River. The site is on the bluff of a short, deeply incised, dune-blocked tributary to the South Platte. The Paleoindian component is in the lower part of the Brady Soil. The age of the lower Brady Soil where cultural material was recovered is 10,360 yr B.P., and the age of the upper Brady Soil is 6090 yr B.P. The Brady Soil formed over a longer interval at site 25KH67 than at other upland localities in southern Nebraska and Kansas. Three episodes of eolian deposition occurred after 6090 yr B.P.
