| The original substrate of the soils on the terrace surfaces in North Reutlingen consist of loess deposits in varying thicknesses. |
| The series consists of very deep, well drained, fine silty alfisol formed in loess. |
| Now that we have some visuals of what a dune, yardang, a loess are we can go into the actual definitions. |
| Large-scale landslides and mass flowage of loess are frequently triggered by heavy, seasonal rainstorms in the drylands of Asia and elsewhere. |
| The regionally immense deposits of rich loess soils, for example in the Midwest, are also of aeolian origin. |
| In flat coastal plains and piedmonts, yields appear to increase five to ten-fold with agriculture, whereas in loess terrains 100-fold increases are typical. |
