https://doi.org/10.15356/0435-4281-1971-1-68-76
Abstract
In the southern regions of Transbaikalia there are relicts of a single surface of pla- nation, which has formed mainly in the Late Cretaceous-Paleogene time. The surface of planation is a slanting and undulating denudational plain with locally preserved insular mountians. It is fixed with particolored and redcolored crusts of weathering. The processes of pediplanisation and peneplanisation of the initial relief played an equal role in the formation of the surface.
