“…It may be concluded that the Kamenka interstadial paleosols are practically identical to those of Krutitsa in their characteristic. In the Gololobovo, Mikhnevo, Ozherelye sections in the studied region the paleosols are comparable with imperfectly developed modern Gleyic Phaeozems (Panin 2007(Panin , 2015Velichko and Morozova 2015). Paleosols of the Korostelyovo, Sebryakovo-Mikhailovka, Strelitsa-2017 and Gun'ki sections are attributed to imperfectly developed Kastanozems and Haplic Kastanozems, or to imperfectly developed Haplic Chernozems.…”

Among the sections, are Gololobovo (Panin 2007;Panin 2015;Little et al 2002;Chizhikova et al 2007), Ozherelye and Mikhnevo (Panin 2007), Suvorotino (Panin 2007), Bogolyubovo (Velichko et al 1996), Likhvin (Little et al 2002), Bryansk and Arapovichi (Velichko and Morozova 1963;Morozova 1981), Korostelyovo (Velichko 2002), Sebryakovo-Mikhailovka (Velichko et al, 2006), Gun'ki (Velichko et al 1997) and Strelitsa-2017. In those sections the Late Pleistocene (Mezin paleosol complex, PC) and Middle Pleistocene (Kamenka PC and Inzhavino PC) paleosols were exposed together with the surface soils.…”

“…Earlier investigations resulted in acquiring abundant materials on physical-chemical characteristics and micromorphological data that gave us an insight into the development, structure, and properties of paleosols, both interstadial and interglacial ones (Velichko and Morozova 1963;Velichko and Morozova 1972;Velichko and Morozova 2010;Velichko et al 1985;Panin 2007;Panin 2015). It follows from the results obtained that the interstadial paleosols both of Late and Middle Pleistocene developed under grass steppe vegetation under conditions of lesser heat supply than those formed during interglacials.…”

“…8) PC. Taking into consideration the small thickness of their profile (0.42 m), the listed characteristics suggest a certain similarity of those paleosols to modern imperfectly developed Gleyic Chernozems (Panin 2007;Panin 2015;Velichko and Morozova 2015) formed under steppe vegetation (Novenko et al 2008). In sections Korostelyovo, Sebryakovo-Mikhailovka, Gun'ki and Strelitsa-2017 the microstructure of interstadial paleosols is distinct for large regularly shaped gypsum crystals; according to Gerasimova et al (1992), such crystals may develop under conditions of continuous, or long-term, presence of water in the soil, which makes possible the crystal growth.…”

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.
