At Belcroute there is a more complex deposit of loess head on a raised beach deposit elevated at 8 metres, that sits on another loess deposit.

He incorrectly conjectured that icebergs may be the emphasis behind the transport of glacial erratics, and that silty loess deposits might have settled out of flood waters.

Ian Smalley and his colleagues suggested that the distribution of the northern carmine bee-eater is tightly linked to the presence of secondary loess deposits throughout Africa.

Unlike other forms of carbonate nodules, which are often found in more solid rock, loess deposits with lime nodules are soft and crumbly, or loose.

The thickest loess deposits can be found in the northwest and north-central part of the Kansas River basin from southern Nebraska into northwest Kansas, as well as near the river's mouth.
16.
The sediments here are made up of 50 % ice, and 50 % loess, which is a windblown sediment-the carbon content of loess deposits is five times that of a rainforest floor.
17.
The cultural layer, located under a layer of loess deposits was partially eroded and redeposited back in the Pleistocene period, but despite this horizon was very rich in archaeological materials, particularly fossil fauna.
18.
The soils in the area of the fault scarp benefit from fertile loess deposits whilst, in places, there are steep rock faces on the scarp slopes which are a result of erosion and which are now classified as natural monuments and biotopes.
19.
Montane and piedmont glaciers formed the land by grinding away virtually all traces of the older G�nz and Mindel glaciation, by depositing base moraines and terminal moraines of different retraction phases and loess deposits, and by the pro-glacial rivers'shifting and redepositing gravels.

The region, with its ice age loess deposits ( hence it is sometimes called the Central Saxon Loess Hills or " mittels�chsisches L��h�gelland " ) is heavily dominated by agriculture ( fruit and vegetable farming ), especially as a result of its very high soil values.
