Eolian sand sheet deposition in the San Luis paleodune field, …
Eolian deposits are common in the western Pampas of Argentina, and most are assumed to be associated with glacial conditions. Stratigraphic and sedimentologic studies coupled with OSL dating in San Luis Province document for the first time a nearly continuous sequence of eolian sand sheet deposits that span most of the Holocene.

In part of this region, the sandy deposits overly buried soils (i.e. Thapto-sols). The action of wind gave way to the development of sand dunes, whose orientation is dictated by the direction of the prevailing winds. Lowlands between dunes are covered by hydromorphic and salt-affected soils (INTA 2017).
