The <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chengdust1:place>st1:City> clay consists essentially of silty grains of 5 to 50 μm in size, with an average grain diameter of 7.1 to 7.3 φ(i.e., 7.4 to 6.6 μm in size)and also a small amount of more than 63 μm fraction, and in the diagram, tends to display the bimodal patterns of distribution. The grain size parameters, mean square deviation values and kurtosis values for the <st1:City w:st="on">Chengdust1:City> clay are strikingly similar to those of the northern <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chinast1:place>st1:country-region> loess and Garze loess, but quite different from those of the fluvial deposits. The above-mentioned aspects suggest that the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chengdust1:place>st1:City> clay is a kind of Aeolian soil. According the results of optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chengdust1:place>st1:City> clay from the Chengdu Plain should be originated from the latest glacial sediments in the middle to late stages of the late Pleistocene.
