Precambrian paleosols on the Great Unconformity of the East European Craton: An 800 million year record of Baltica’s climatic conditions

• Weathering on East European Craton. • Mature and well preserved Precambrian paleosol altered by low degree of diagenesis. • Studied profiles represent weathering sequences from early to advance stages, on a variety of parent materials and ages. • Paleosols are analogous to Recent weathering in warm and humid (tropical) climate. • Unique set of Meso and Neoproterozoic paleosols on the crystalline basement of the East European Craton. •...
