灰尘在地球环境系统中很重要。然而，灰尘在气候变化中的作用仍然很大程度上未知。更好地了解亚洲沙尘积累的时间和空间变化，是建立沙尘沉积与气候变化之间联系的重要一步。这里总结了中新世早期开始的亚洲黄土沉积的开始和扩展的时间。还回顾了黄土年代学和古环境重建某些方面的最新进展。
Dust is important in the Earth environment system. However, the role of dust in climate change remains largely unknown. A better understanding of the temporal and spatial variability of the dust accumulation in Asia forms an important step towards establishing the link between dust deposition and climate change. Here, a summary is given for the timing of the onset and expansion of loess deposition in Asia beginning in the early Miocene. Recent progress on some aspects of loess chronology and palaeoenvironmental reconstruction is also reviewed.
