löszkutatás

I am conducting a complex study of the loess-paleosol sequences in the Carpathian Basin. By recognizing the processes that took place in the strata, I aim to identify past environmental and climatic changes. To this end, I will primarily use micromorphological analysis of paleosols, complemented by other methods.

By describing the Bagi Tephra layer as a marker horizon and identifying it in several profiles, I have connected known or unexplored loess sections located at different distances . Through these, I correlated the terrace systems of the smaller rivers with the Danube Basaharcian terrace and drew conclusions about the evolutionary history of the areas.
