Abstract
The efficacy and limitations of routine environmental magnetic approaches to characterize and compare the Quaternary sediments of varied depositional settings (fluvial, fluvio-lacustrine and marine) from the Indian sub-continent are discussed. The various studied profiles fall under tropical wet and dry, subtropical humid, cold arid and alpine climatic zones at altitudes varying from ∼2000 m below sea level to ∼4500 msl. The magnetic mineral assemblages are characterized by magnetic susceptibility, high field hysteresis parameters and their ratios and bivariate plots. Besides applying the conventional models, we produced new and multi-parametric environmental magnetic models for finer discrimination of the mineral magnetic assemblages (MMA) amongst these deposits.
