The monograph examines the problems of paleogeography, chronostratigraphy, and the genesis of loess and fossil soils. Based on detailed palynological analysis and a comprehensive study of reference sections of late Cenozoic deposits, a new concept of the formation of loess-soil formations and the development of landscapes in the loess regions of Northern Eurasia in the Pleistocene has been developed. The age and climatic and phytocenotic conditions for the formation and conservation of subsidence of loess rocks in the Eastern Ciscaucasia have been established. The book is intended for geographers, geologists, soil scientists, paleobotanists, specialists in geoecology, teachers and students of higher education institutions.
