A memory of Paleozoic to Quaternary Greenhouse climates recorded in Southern African regolith
In this article, we explore the potential of iron-rich duricrust regoliths from old erosional anorogenic surfaces to record clues of the long-term continental paleoclimatic evolution. We coupled geochemical, mineralogical and geochronological analyses on iron oxides and oxyhydroxides (i.e. hematite and goethite) fr...
