title: Soil Formation in the Early Pliocene by Data of the Alma-Peschanoe Loess-Soil Sequence, Western Crimea
abstract: The loess-paleosol sequence of the Alma-Peschanoe section located in the west of the Crimean Peninsula is analyzed. A comprehensive analysis of morphological, physicochemical, and some other features enables us to identify eight paleosols formed under different conditions. The supposed age of the loess-paleosol sequence was determined by the paleofaunal analysis based on the discovery of a tooth from the mouse Micromys cf. bendae. According to the data obtained, the formation of paleosols at the
