HU Meng-yu,Barbara A. Maher. THE MAGNETIC RECORDS OF THE CHINESE LOESS-SOIL SEQUENCES AND PALAEORAINFALL RECONSTRUCTION[J]. Advances in Earth Science, 2002, 17(3): 320-325.

This paper outlines the magnetic properties of the Chinese loess-palaeosol sequences and introduces the model of pedogenic magnetite formation. It further discusses the correlation between rainfall and pedogenic susceptibility and the approaches to palaeoclimate reconstruction.
