Chronology and paleoenvironment of Peoria Silt deposition and Jules Geosol development along the Illinois Valley, Illinois, USA
… paleosol developed in thick loess deposits (Peoria Silt) proximal to the Illinois River Valley around the time of the last glacial maximum. Two sites, New Cottonwood School and Thomas Quarry, which contain the Jules Geosol, were selected along the Illinois Valley to develop new chronologies …

Stratigraphy, magnetic susceptibility, and mineralogy of loess-paleosol sequences in southwestern Illinois and eastern Missouri
Magnetic susceptibility (MS) zones, controlled by silt-size magnetite concentrations, have been delineated within oxidized, C horizon Peoria and Loveland Silts along the Illinois and Mississippi Valleys. Lower Peoria and lower Loveland Silts (MS = 55-80 $\times\ 10\sp{-5}$ SI) and Roxana Silt (MS = …
