NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Kohfeld and Harrison 2001 Mid-continental USA Gridded Maps of Loess Thickness
This archived Paleoclimatology Study is available from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), under the World Data Service (WDS) for Paleoclimatology. The associated NCEI study type is Loess and Eolian Dust. The data include parameters of loess and paleosol with a geographic location of North America. The time period coverage is from 34000 to 10000 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
