摘要

Currently, paleosol research is distinguished by a fairly fundamental degree of development in both geographical and chronological aspects. Paleosols serve as valuable repositories of geochemical and mineralogical data, providing comprehensive insights into terrestrial environments during their formation. Throughout the geochemical history of landscapes, climate changes entail changes in the ratio of weathering rates, which in turn affect the direction of the soil-forming process and the accumulation of various solid-phase products of soil functioning. Paleosols, although not as common in the geological record as other types of terrestrial sedimentary rocks, are an important source of information about the state of the Earth’s surface in the past and preserve information about the paleobiosphere.
