dc.description.abstract	The upper Yenisei River area is of major importance for mapping the Pleistocene climate evolution over Siberia. An extensive loess cover with a suite of buried palaeosols from the Northern Minusinsk Basin has provided one of the most complete, high resolution Late Quaternary palaeoclimatic archives in north-central Asia. The loess-palaeosol records indicate establishment of periglacial steppe-tundra during cold stadial intervals, replaced by parkland steppe and boreal forest during warm interstadial intervals.	en

utb.fulltext.sponsorship	Quaternary investigations (1997–1998) in the Yenisei Basin (the Kurtak area) were supported by the National Geographic Society, the Royal Society (London) and the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Drs. N.I. Drozdov, V.P. Chekha and N.I. Ovodov (Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography, SB RAS, Krasnoyarsk) provided assistance during previous (1993–1994) field studies. Dr. E.V. Akimova (Archaeology Institute, Krasnoyarsk) kindly provided illustrations on the Listvenka site (Figs. 22–24). Edward Little (Geological Survey, Nunavut, NWT, Canada) helped with preparation of Figs. 1 and 17.
