Аннотация:Paleosol studies were widespread in the East European Plain. Three paleosol complexes were distinguished in the sequence of soil-loess deposits: the Mezin complex of the Late Pleistocene and the Kamensk and Inzhavin complexes of the Middle Pleistocene. Each of them comprise paleosols of two phases: the earlier interglacial phase and the later interstadial one.
