Abstract  Layer LJ3 of Linjiang stratigraphic section in Dongjiang river valley in the south of Nanling Mountains is a set of red sandy sediments. Measured by TL dating it was found to be formed in MIS2 phase of (9 500±800)—(19 600±1 800)a BP. Analyzed by the grain sizes of the 16 samples (LJ3-100 to LJ3-85) in this layer, it was discovered that: ①The contents of each grain group in different samples are similar;② The values of Md, Mz, σ ,Sk and Kg swing from LJ3-100 to LJ3\|85 in a narrow range;③The segments of each samples in the accumulative curves extend parallel with similar slopes. All the three aspects reveal the aeolian characteristics of layer LJ3. Hereby, the layer LJ3 is made up of red sandy sediments formed in MIS2 in the south of Nanling Mountain, reflecting the arid climate at that time.
