<description>Magnetic fabric (MF) investigations complemented by geochemical and grain surface analyses of the&#xd;
understudied and controversial marine isotope stage (MIS) 5 b, 4 and 3 loess deposits in the Lower Volga&#xd;
region, Russia show that the material has been transported and deposited by wind and to a large extent&#xd;
experienced post-depositional reworking. Grain surface features suggest that the material was glacially&#xd;
ground and fluvially transported prior to final aeolian deposition as loess. Secondary magnetic fabrics in&#xd;
the loess reveal pedogenic and cryogenic processes and a generally cold environment with brief shifts to&#xd;
warmer climate during late MIS 5 and MIS 3. Palaeowind reconstructions derived from preserved primary&#xd;
aeolian MF, indicate locally influenced westerly and north-westerly flow as part of a wider scale&#xd;
westerly wind pattern, similar to modern day winter conditions. We suggest that the climate of the last&#xd;
glacial in the Northern Caspian Lowland was cold and dry, with higher windspeeds and less variability&#xd;
during MIS 4 compared to MIS 3.</description>
