The article deals with the macro- and micromorphological description of the second phase of the Korshiv fossil soil formation. We investigated only the soil of the second phase because the soil of the first phase is destroyed or is not found in the Grymayliv and Yarmolyntci support slits. So, the analyzed types of soil of the second phase in terms of these slits bear resemblance to modern black soil but differ in the conditions of their formation. Key words: micromorphological structure, fossil soil, loess, Middle Pleistocene, soil horizon, thin section.

Key section Pidvolochysk is located in the quarry of the currently inactive brick factory. It represents the Upper and Middle Pleistocene loess-soil series as well as some fossil paleocryogenic forms of the Khmelnytsky Plateau of the Podolian Upland. The ice-wedge casts of the Final Pleistocene (Krasyliv) palaeocryogenic stage are presented here especially intensely. One of them is studied on the engineering-geological aspect. In particular, it has been defined, that the loess filler of ice-wedge cast, in contradistinction to loesses that contain it, is loose and subsiding. This is of great importance for the engineering-geological evaluation of the properties of loess-soil strata. Key section Pidvolochysk is well stratified. Two Upper Pleistocene loess horizons (MIS 2, 4) and the upper horizon of Middle Pleistocene loesses (MIS 6) are disclosed here. Besides loess horizons, Dubno fossil soil (MIS 3) and Horokhiv fossil soil complex (MIS 5), as well as delluvial-solifluctional stratum above Dubno, are developed here. The engineering-geological properties of the loess and palaeosol horizons, including their subsidence, have been studied in detail. Individual characteristics of distinct stratigraphic horizons are given. It can be used during the engineering-geological research in the areas of distribution of Pleistocene loess-soil series. Key words: loess-soil series, key section, Pleistocene, palaeocryogenesis, engineering-geological features, Podolian Upland.

Abstract. The drumlin section recently discovered near Hörmating in the Upper Bavarian area of the Würm Glaciation and evaluated with regard to stratigraphy, paleoclimatology, and chronology by E. Ebers (in this annual) can closely be correlated with the typical loess section of eastern Lower Austria, particularly with its Fellabrunn (Göttweig) fossil soil complex as described and interpreted by F. Brandtner. The Göttweig loamificaton developed during the Hörmating Interstadial from c. 47000 (or 48000) until the close marked by a thin peat layer 45300±1000 C-14 years old. As some findings are suggestive of at least one cold oscillation, the term „Göttweig Interstadial Complex" appears to be correcter. This period interrupted the glacial climate of the Würm Glaciation from c. 47000 (or 48000) until c. 30000 B. P. The northern alpine Piedmont Glaciation was initiated by an advance-gravel later on weathered on the surface probably during the Paudorf Interstadial and advanced entirely (or almost entirely) during the Main Würm Stage from the (Swiss) Aare to the Salzach rivers, after several Lower Würm gravel masses had poured out of the Alps valleys during the Early Würm Stage. This Lower Würm gravel was capped by a weathered (decalcified) stratum 2-3 metres in thickness and can contain up to three interstadial Schieferkohle (Pleistocene lignite) beds intercalated, the lowermost overlying a Schieferkohle stratum deposited during the Riss-Würm Interglacial at some sites.

The article presents the results of the field study of the two artificial outcrops of the Pleistocene deposits, which are located in the suburbs Solonske near Drohobych city. Outcrops (careers) are located within the terrace of the Tysmenytsia River. The height of the terrace is about 50 m above the river level and changes along the distance from the mountains. The main attention in the article is paid to the study of the structure of the upper (covering) stratum of the terrace with a thickness of about 26 m, and also to the characteristics of its consolidated stratigraphic section. The basis of this stratum consists of the layers of non-carbonate loams and clays. They are more or less enriched of iron compounds and gleyed. Between them there are four horizons of buried soils of the interglacial and interstadial rank. Based on the observations made in the field, it was found that the sediments of the covering stratum have mainly river origin. The conditions of their accumulation, as well as the conditions for the formation and transformation of ancient soils, are considered; eight pre-Holocene lito- and pedostratigraphic layers of different rank are singled out. The division of the covering stratum of the terraces into three main layers is sub¬stan¬tiated, which is equivalent to the stratigraphic units of the glacial and interglacial rank. Comparison of the Solonske section with other sections of the similar height terraces, in particular with well-known outcrops near the village Dubrivka (section Dubrivka) gives grounds to assume that the formation of a local terrace occurred during the Marine Isotopic Stages 12 to 10. Consequently, the Solonske section represents a short strati¬gra¬phic interval of the Middle Pleistocene (not the three main Pleistocene units as stated in the results of its previous study). It can be the basis for studying only a few (two to three) horizons of the glacial/interglacial rank. At the same time, it is potentially a very impor¬tant key section of the Solonske (Dubrivska, Dovhivska, Varnytska) terrace of the Pre-Dniester. The studying of Solonske outcrops makes it necessary to revise the popular notions about the origin and the age of the so-called covering stratum of the river terraces of the Carpathian Foreland and Podolian Pre-Dniester, its stratigraphic filling and significance. Key words: alluvial deposits; terraces; soil-loess sequence; Middle Pleistocene; Dniester valley; Carpathian Foreland; Solonske section.

The Fore-Carpathians part of Svicha River valley partially covers Morshyn and Zalissia Uplands and Stryi-Zhydachiv depression. Within the Svicha and Sukil' river valleys, there are well-developed different-age terraces with thick stratified loess covers. The investigation of the last ones can help to define nomenclature and age of the terraces. The loess covers of the third (Kolodiiv) and the fourth (Mariampil) terraces, which are represented by Pidberezhzhia and Mizhrichchia sections accordingly, are characterised in detail in the article. Pidberezhzhia section represents a sequence of alluvial and covering deposits of the third (Kolodiiv) over-floodplain terrace of Svicha River, which is developed on its right bank. The terrace is stretched out in the form of a narrow (about 2 km) strip from the village Zarichchia to the village Novoselytsia. It is separated from the Svicha riverbed by the system of different-altitude floodplain levels and the first and second over-floodplain terraces. The boundaries between them are morphologically distinct, the exceeding of the surface of the Kolodiiv terrace above the water level in the riverbed of Svicha reaches 10 m or even more. Covering loess-soil series on the terrace has a capacity of more than 6 m and begins with the Horokhiv fossil soil complex. Mizhrichchia section represents the fourth (Mariampil) over-floodplain terrace, which to the north of Mizhrichchia village forms a scarp to the riverbed of the Svicha River, about 20 m in height. The terrace on this part of the valley of the river covers small areas and it is developed between the villages of Zarichchia and Mali Didushychi. Almost along its length, the terrace directly scarps to the riverbed. On the opposite side, where the rear seam is, it borders on the fifth (Galician) over-floodplain terrace, which forms a scarp about 10 m in height. Loess cover on the fourth terrace is up to 14 m thick. There are welldeveloped Dubno fossil soil (MIS 3) and Horokhiv fossil soil complex (MIS 5) and a thick sequence of hydromorphic deposits, which obviously correspond to the Korshiv fossil soil complex (MIS 7) in loesspaleosol series. The studied Pleistocene covers allow us to reliably identify Mariampil and Kolodiiv terraces of the Svicha River, as well as outline the nomenclature of the remaining terraces of the adjacent sections of the Zalissia and Morshyn Uplands and Stryi-Zhydachiv depression. Key words: river terrace, loess-soil covers, Dubno fossil soil, Horokhiv and Korshiv fossil soil complexes, Fore-Carpathians, Zalissia and Morshyn Uplands.

Maximal Extent

The question concerning the limit of the maximum extent of the Middle Pleistocene (Dnipro) glacial cover on the territory of the Volyn Polissya remains still open. The author attempted to establish that limit more precisely basing on geological and geomorphological data obtained mainly during the field works. The following features of that limit were emphasized: the differentiation in age, the connections with the irregularities of the relief of the rocks forming the substrate, as well as the differences in the structure of the marginal forms originated during the time of the maximum extent of the ice cover in various parts of the Volyn Polissya. Key words: Volyn Polissya, Dnipro glaciation, Liuboml’-Stolin Range, marginal zone, terminal moraines, eskers, kames.
