Study on Carbonates in Loess: A Review

Chen Zhong

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Carbonates in loess is used to extract information for palaeoclimate investigations.This subject covers the distinction of secondary carbonates,weight percent of carbonates,carbon and oxygen isotopes,and strontium in carbonates,etc.Based on former investigations,a brief review was given.It summarizes on how to distinct secondary carbonates,the significances of carbonate contents,the relation of oxygen isotopes in carbonates with palaeotemperature,the relation of carbon isotopes in carbonates with flora and humidity in loess area,the relation of strontium isotopes with palaeomonsoon,etc.
