Origin of superparamagnetic particles in Argiudolls developed on loess, Buenos Aires (Argentina)

Records from magnetic signals in Buenos Aires loess-paleosol sequences have been published, but their relationship with environmental changes has been difficult to establish. Studies on the superparamagnetic (SP) population in present soils can help to understand these processes. Samples from presen...
