Abstract
Much importance in the formation of the global climatic system is attached to Asia, a large land with elevated and severe topography that has a pronounced effect on planetary air circulation. The history of modern climate and environment formation in this territory during Cainozoe is observed on intercontinental profiles. One of the fullest profiles among the Pleistocene continental sediments are loess-soil profiles, and the reflected record of climate events shows the cyclic variations in environment and climate during this period of time. The data on 100 loess-soil profiles of West Siberia were analyzed, and the revision of the already published materials was conducted. The comparison of the structure of full loess-soil sequence in Siberia within Bruenes period (0-780 th. years) with the structure of continuous global climate records makes it possible not only to reveal the frequency, but to show the correlation between climate and environment changes on this territory during Pleistocene and the global ones.
