Article type
Annotation An aquatic genesis of the Late Pleistocene sediments (D’olkuminskaya suite), which had been considered as aeolian by many investigators, was proved in the southern part of the Central-Yakutian plain, in the bearing outcrop «Peschanaya Mountain» on the right bank of the Lena River. The sediments of the D’olkuminskaya suite were formed by catastrophic water flows of the NW-SE direction, which was opposite to the present-day direction of the Lena River course. The genesis is confirmed by granulometric, geochemical, and palynological investigations. The formation of sediments is, presumably, associated with a catastrophic flood in the end of Pleistocene
Key words D’olkuminskaya suite; Late Pleistocene; Central-Yakutian plain; Lena; Periglacial alluvium; Peschanaya Mountain; precipitation; flood; sediments; water extracts
