“…Previous studies of depositional AMS in sediments have shown that the shape and orientation of the magnetic fabric can be related to different sedimentological processes during the deposition of particles from suspension in water (Ellwood, 1980;Rees, 1965;Rees et al, 1968;Rees & Woodall, 1975;Weiler, 2007). The initial sedimentary fabrics are generally determined by gravity and currents.…”

“…Although paleocurrents may also produce a relatively well-defined magnetic lineation (e.g., Rees and Woodall, 1975;Parés et al, 2007) Furthermore, sites CJ05, CJ06, and CJ07 lie along the crest of a ~E-W trending, westward plunging syncline (Fig. 3).…”

“…However, there are some exceptions, namely L 3 and L 5 , which must represent the accumulation of eolian dust on a slope (Rees 1966;Rees and Woodal 1975;Ellwood and Howard 1981). The direction of the maximum susceptibility (κ max ), on the other hand, may reflect the direction of paleotransport.…”

Four paleosol layers indicating wet and moderate periods and five loess layers indicating dry and cold climate were separated by different methods. The following climate cycle model, based on the development of the sediment sequence created by the influence of climatic, geologic and geomorphologic phenomena, was established by detailed paleomagnetic studies (e.g. anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS), isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM), frequency dependence of magnetic susceptibility (κ FD ), etc.):-A well-foliated magnetic fabric predominantly built up by multi-domain ferromagnetic minerals (magnetite, maghemite) was developed during the semi-arid (350-400 mm/y) and cold loessification period of the Pleistocene. The magnetic fabric can reflect the direction of dust deposition and/or the paleoslope.-The accumulation period of dust was followed by the more humid (650 mm/y) pedogenic period indicated by the enrichment of superparamagnetic minerals and by the disturbed or inverse magnetic fabric developed during pedogenesis by different processes (e.g. leaching and/or bioturbation).-The third period following the pedogenic period is the humid erosional phase indicated by the finely layered reworked loess. The magnetic fabric built up by multi-domain ferro-and superparamagnetic minerals is characterized by better-aligned directions of principal susceptibilities than in the wind blown material. Sheet wash and other waterlogged surface processes appeared in the fabric of these layers. This process is possibly connected to sudden, rare yet significant events with high precipitation and absence of vegetation.-The cycle was closed by the beginning of the next dust accumulation period.
