摘要
920 samples were collected from JL red earth section, Lushan area, Jiangxi Province, and magnetic susceptibility was measured on all these samples. The results indicate that: 1) the magnetic susceptibility of weak plinthitic red earth and loess-paleosol is rather higher than typical plinthitic red earth, loess-paleosol is 2.88 times the value of plinthitic red earth; 2) pedogenic ferromagnetic minerals are prone to dissolve, transform and leach in pesudogleyization environment caused by damp and soil waterlogging, which results in the abnormality of magnetic susceptibility from plinthitic red earth; and 3) based on ESR chronology, generally speaking, the magnetic susceptibility of JL red earth increases by four phases from bottom to top.
