Abstract

North China is divided into three major geomorphic regions. Thick deposits of loess are a primary feature of the area; its distribution, age, and relation to other geologic formations are given. The Variscan and Himalayan orogenies influenced the paleogeography of the region greatly. The Huang Ho deposits great amounts of silt annually; efforts to control this river constitute a continuing major effort. --M. Russell.
