Album Info:
This plateau was created two million years ago by the deposition of wind-blown dust and by glacial till, called loess, which was left behind by retreating glaciers. Loess provides good agricultural soil but is highly prone to wind and water erosion. High winds and lack of vegetation contribute to the dust storms that northern China is famous for. They also account for the distinctive color of the Yellow River and Yellow Sea. Because the fine grain "loess" soils areis easily eroded, much of this landscape consists of deeply furrowed yellow hills.
