    A REVIEW OF RECENT PROGRESS IN CHINESE LOESS AND RED-CLAY PROVENANCE STUDIES USING ZIRCON U/Pb DATING

    • Loess and the underlying red-clay sequences on the Chinese Loess Plateau contain important paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental information, but great debates remain with the provenance of Chinese loess and red-clay. Zircon U/Pb dating is a novel provenance tracing technique and is starting to be used to solve provenance problems of Chinese loess. In this paper, we review these studies and propose several points that need to be paid attention to in future studies.
