Conditions and age of aeolian sand deposition in the Volhynian Polesie (Ukraine)
Paweł ZIELIŃSKI, Stanisław FEDOROWICZ, Iwan ZALESKI
The study attempts to describe conditions for dune distribution in the Volhynian Polesie. The structure and age of sandy aeolian forms were obtained from the lithofacial analysis and TL dating at three representative sites. They served as a basis for indicating aeolian sand alimentation areas and for reconstructing aerodynamic conditions during the deposition of three various-age aeolian series. Variations in the speed and direction of dune-forming wind were correlated with changes in the baric situation in the Late Vistulian. The study also discusses the possibility and accuracy of TL date application to determine the dates of dune-forming phases.
Keywords: aeolian sand, deposition, TL age, Volhynian Polesie, Ukraine
