The stratigraphic record of alternating loess deposits and interbedded paleosol profiles is
interpreted to represent glacial-interglacial cycles in response to orbital forces during …

The loess–paleosol sequences of the Karewa Group preserve a valuable repository of the
Late Quaternary climatic changes and the landscape evolution history of the Karewa Basin …

Integrated pedological and geochemical study of the Quaternary Loess-Paleosols
sediments of the Kashmir Valley was carried out in order to reconstruct their chemical …

The late Quaternary loess and loess-like deposits in Kashmir Valley are natural archives that
have preserved paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental records of the region. We present a …

Loess is the most areally-extensive surficial deposit in Kashmir Valley and its depositional
history extends as far back as∼ 0.2 million years. Three loess-paleosols sections …

Pedogenic carbonates, widespread in paleosols throughout the geological ages, have been
widely used to infer climatic conditions and vegetation type during their formation. They are …

Terrestrial loess palaeosol sequences (LPS) are the most extensive paleoclimate archives
documenting dynamic sedimentary processes in response to glacial (cold-dry) and …

We thank the commentator for his comments on our paper (Dar et al., 2014) in press,
hereinafter referred to as Dar et al.(2015). Standard procedures were followed for correlation …

Kashmir valley receives the rainfall owing to the dominant westerly winds and experiences
less impact of the southwest monsoonal rains (SWM). In this valley, loess and loess …

Loess paleosols have been often studied to reconstruct late Quaternary past climate
changes. In the present study, textural analysis, TOC, CaCO 3 content, micromorphology …
