Paleosols in clastic sedimentary rocks: their geologic applications

TL;DR: Paleosols can be classified according to the interplay among deposition, erosion, and the rate of pedogenesis when they formed as mentioned in this paper, which can be used to interpret landscapes of the past by analyzing paleosol-landscape associations at different spatial scales.

Geochemical Climofunctions from North American Soils and Application to Paleosols across the Eocene‐Oligocene Boundary in Oregon

TL;DR: In this article, the degree of chemical weathering in soils increases with mean annual precipitation (P; mm) and mean annual temperature (T; C) and they quantified these relationships using a database of major-element chemical analyses of 126 North American soils.

The frequency and distribution of recent landslides in three montane tropical regions of Puerto Rico

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of simplified matrices representing geographic conditions in the three study areas were developed and provided a basis for the estimation of the spatial controls on the frequency of landslides in Puerto Rico.

Response of alluvial fan systems to the late Pleistocene to Holocene climatic transition: contrasts between the margins of pluvial Lakes Lahontan and Mojave, Nevada and California, USA

TL;DR: In this paper, two sets of alluvial fan systems have been mapped: the Stillwater fans, feeding Lake Lahontan; and the Zzyzx fans feeding Lake Mojave, and their contrasting morphologies suggest different responses to late Pleistocene to early Holocene climatic change.

River response to Quaternary subsidence due to evaporite solution (Gállego River, Ebro Basin, Spain)

TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of the Gallego river during the Quaternary was controlled by both climatic change and subsidence, where the valley subsidence was balanced by stream aggradation maintaining the river equilibrium profile.
