The formation of
deluvial and alluvial cones as a consequence of human settlement on a loess plateau: an example from the Chroberz area (Poland).
The lithologic substratum is mainly made up of Sarmatic sediments (marl, sands, calcareous gritstone) and Pliocene sediments (sands, argil, gravel) which, through in situ alteration / and
deluvial reshuffling on slopes and fluvial reshuffling on banks and meadows, constitute soils suitable for wine-growing.
Seismic station at Orlova village was located in the area in which no sedimentary rock occurred except of
deluvial and sandy loams--so called "Carboniferous window" (e.g.
However, in the case of synlithogenic or abnormally developed mineral soils, solid sediments (
deluvial, alluvial) are added to water-soluble substances.
The present volcanic flows are overlain unconformably by Pleistocene sandy limestone and younger Quaternary sediments mainly of clastic rock formation lacustrine, playa, wadi deposits, sebha,
deluvial, proluvial, and eolian clastics.
Loamy sediments and unsorted fragments are characteristic of
deluvial deposits [19].
The
deluvial and solifluction sands and silts appear within the valleys of small streams, flowing out of the highlands, within the dry valleys and on the slopes.
Because of complicated landforms, the diversity of soil types is high, including eroded, erodible,
deluvial, gley, and marsh soils.
Deluvial deposits are characterized by loamy sediments and unsorted fragments [18].
