In this area, in post tertiary times, pedogenesis and sedimentogenesis may be differentiated into two main periods: before and synchronous with quaternary loess deposits and soil development. During the first period, the sedimentogenesis seems to have been weak and pedogenesis strong. The soil cover developed on the account of Paleozoic and Triassic rocks. Keyword: pedogenesis, Quaternary sedimentogenesis, loess and loess-like deposits, fossil soils, Northern Dobrudgea |
