白令海盆17ka以来的古海洋与古气候记录

通过白令海盆08BR02钻孔(57°0.06'N,174°29.97'E,水深3 805 m)的AMS14C测年数据、颜色反射率b*与NGRIP(North Greenland Ice Core Project)氧同位素曲线及白令海4个钻孔颜色反射率b*记录作对比,建立该孔的地层年代框架,顶、底部沉积物年龄分别为4.2 ka和17.0 ka。该孔自17 ka以来,IRD(ice-rafted detritus:冰筏碎屑)、粒度的砂组分以及敏感组分中的33—63μm组分百分含量在全球性冷事件H1(Heinrich event 1)、B/A(Blling/Allerd)中期和YD(Younger Dryas)期间明显增加。IRD和有孔虫丰度在H1、B/A和YD期间同步增加,可能反映海冰融化为表层水提供营养物质,促使表层钙质生产力勃发并将有机质进一步输送至海底,为底栖生物提供营养物质。     

黄土高原100万年以来东亚夏季风演变信号的多尺度分析

在研究黄土高原东亚季风地质时期周期演变中,利用经验模态分解(EMD)方法对黄土高原甘肃省灵台和赵家川黄土剖面约1 MaB.P.以来磁化率时间序列进行多尺度变化分析,结果表明:1)0~0.8 MaB.P.地球轨道三要素中的偏心率准400 ka、100 ka周期在黄土沉积中反映明显,方差贡献率达35.19%,还发现16 ka的岁差周期及334 ka1、77 ka5、8 ka、31 ka、7.9 ka、3.9 ka的非轨道准周期;2)0.8~1 MaB.P.也发现地球轨道三要素中的偏心率准100 ka周期2、1 ka岁差周期及55 ka、8.3 ka、3.5 ka非轨道准周期,偏心率准100 ka周期具有主导地位(方差贡献率达37.44%);3)尽管黄土记录的东亚夏季风100 ka周期的产生机制已有多种假说,古气候学界还是普遍认为它产生于某些尚不清楚的过程,有待进一步研究。     

末次冰消期以来中国湖泊沉积记录的古气候演化及其驱动机制研究

末次冰消期是全球气候与环境出现较大变化的时段,其间发生了一系列气候突变事件,在全球不同地区以不同方式回应着这些事件的变化过程。综述了末次冰消期以来青藏高原高寒干旱区、西北干旱区、云贵高原湿润区以及东部平原地区的湖泊沉积记录的古气候演化特征,探讨了气候变化的驱动机制,并提出未来该研究领域亟待深入开展的工作,包括拓展高分辨率湖泊沉积记录的气候演化时间序列研究,提升学科交叉和与其他地质记录的对比研究,加强中国第四纪湖泊数据库和全球气候变化研究,以及加强水汽来源示踪研究。     

青海湖末次冰消期以来的湖面变化

青海湖是我国最大的内陆封闭湖泊,处在东亚季风、印度季风和西风带的交汇处,对环境变化敏感,是研究该区域及青藏高原环境变化的理想地点。前人基于其连续的湖相沉积物的多项环境指标与其四周湖成阶地、古岸堤以及表层所覆盖的风成沉积物的年代学研究,探讨了青海湖晚第四纪以来的湖面变化情况,取得了显著成果。然而由于测年材料和测年方法的不同,对于高湖面出现的年代问题依然存在着诸多争议。根据近年来已发表的测年数据、前人对青海湖湖面升降变化的研究结果和青海湖QH-2000孔介形类壳体δ18O的记录进行综合集成,构建了自14 ka以来的青海湖湖面变化曲线。在约14～12 ka,湖面在海拔约3 206 m,比现代湖面高12.3 m(以2010年3月湖面海拔3 193.4 m为基准);在约12～10 ka,湖面急剧下降到海拔约3 165 m,比现代低28.4 m;在10～9ka,湖面急剧上升到海拔约3 173 m;在9～6 ka,湖面相对稳定在海拔3 213 m;在6～4 ka,发生过一次干旱事件,湖面下降到低于现代湖面;在4～1 ka,湖面相对稳定在海拔3 193.7 m;在1 ka至今,湖面呈持续下降趋势。     

晚更新世以来长江三角洲长尺度气候干旱事件 ——来自沉积物环境磁学的记录

选择位于长江三角洲南部区域的3个钻孔CSB4、CSB6和CSB8,开展环境磁学方面的研究,以揭示该地区晚更新世以来沉积物记录的显著气候事件。结果显示：3个钻孔都存在明显的S300低值区域,其变化规律为当S300为低值时,磁化率、ARM和SIRM的值较低,而IRMAF80mT/SIRM和ARM/SIRM的比值相对较高,表明磁性矿物浓度降低、粒度变细。同时S300低值区域沉积物以黄色粉砂质黏土为主,含铁锰质结核。IRM获得曲线定量分析结果揭示：沉积物中赤铁矿等高矫顽力组分的含量相对增加,指示长江三角洲区域3次显著的干旱气候事件。在磁性地层及其AMS 14C、光释光测年基础上,推断3次干旱事件发生的时间分别为163―121 ka B.P.（事件I）、57―42 ka B.P.（事件II）和14―10 ka B.P.（事件III）,对应海平面相对较低时期,季风减弱,降水减少,气候干旱,形成以氧化作用为主的环境。     

南极15ka以来海洋沉积物的环境磁学研究

通过对东南极普里兹湾陆坡区ＮＰ９５－１及西南极长城湾ＮＧ９３－１两柱样系统的环境磁学研究，获得了南极地区１５．０～５．５ｋａＢ．Ｐ．以来的古气候变化序列。结果表明，磁学参数较好地记录了古气候变化及沉积环境变化的信息。ＮＰ９５－１柱样较好地记录了Ｈｅｉｎｒｉｃｈ１事件、新仙女木事件以及波令－阿罗德暖期，其中Ｈｅｉｎｒｉｃｈ１事件发生于１４．３ｋａＢ．Ｐ．，新仙女木冷期为１１．７～１０．３ｋａＢ．Ｐ．，１０．３ｋａＢ．Ｐ．以后，南极地区进入全新世。在全新世，两柱样记录了在１０．０ｋａＢ．Ｐ．及６．０ｋａＢ．Ｐ．前后两个暖期，其间夹有小幅气温下调的时段；６．０ｋａＢ．Ｐ．后，两柱样均有气候颤动变冷的记录。     

甘青地区末次冰消期以来植被与气候演化的孢粉记录对比分析

选用甘青地区达连海、青海湖、苏家湾、大地湾4个典型高分辨率的钻孔资料进行对比分析,阐明了该地区末次冰消期以来气候变化规律与主要气候事件,初步探讨了该地区植被纬向时空演化规律。结果显示末次冰消期大致开始于15.2~14.6 ka BP之间,冰消期期间该地区气候表现为冷暖波动频繁,气候不稳定,植被类型由东向西为草原-荒漠化草原。全新世早期阶段10.4~8.2 ka BP气候表现为温干,植被类型由东向西为疏林草原-草原。全新世中期8.2~4.3 ka BP气候温暖湿润,植被发育良好,由东向西出现森林-森林草原植被。4.3 ka BP以后该地区气候总体向凉干方向发展,3.9~3.4 ka BP期间陇中地区气候波动较显著,植被类型草原-森林草原交替出现。晚全新世后期2.3~0 ka BP气候冷干,从东到西发育草原-荒漠化草原植被。     

查格勒布鲁剖面—晚更新世以来东亚季风进退的地层记录

本文着重分析了查格勒布鲁剖面沉积物的粒度特征和孢粉组合特征，结合（１４）Ｃ测年、古冰缘现象和沉积物化学元素的ＳｉＯ２／Ａｌ２Ｏ３分子比值变化规律指出，晚更新世以来巴丹吉林沙漠南缘地区的气候条件随全球冰期气候的波动亦经历了由晚更新世早期的相对温湿阶段、晚更新世晚期尤其是末次盛冰期的干冷阶段向全新世温暖期的演化过程。东亚夏季风尾阎在晚更新世早期到达甚至越过本区影响到拐子湖一带，晚更新世晚期本区受冬季风的控制，全新世以来东亚夏季风尾闾又向本区推进，并于全新世大暖期对本区造成明显影响。     

末次冰期以来浑善达克沙地粒度组成的环境记录

浑善达克沙地周缘及腹地质量磁化率的测定和粒度分析表明：区域上粒度变化表现为东部较西部粗，腹地较周缘粗，南部较北部粗的规律，说明粒径的大小及土壤的成壤与源区及地表环境有关，同时也说明了浑善达克沙地的形成过程受东亚季风变化的影响；时间上，末次冰期晚期，浑善达克沙地全面扩张，主要表现为现代草场的位置都可找到古风成砂；冰后期，浑善达克沙地成壤作用较好，这个时期属于一个大的成壤期，即使在沙地的腹地也成壤；目前该地区处于成壤期，但成壤作用比冰后期差，粘土含量减少，地表粗化现象严重，表明了人类活动在沙漠化过程中的突出作用。     

东亚沿海山地末次冰期冰川与环境

对东亚沿海山地末次冰期冰川发育的气候条件、构造背景、冰进时序、发育规模等研究表明,台湾山地保存着3期冰川作用遗迹,冰川的最大前进规模发生在MIS3b阶段,其规模大于MIS2阶段;日本山地冰期系列齐全,包含了末次冰期的早(MIS4)、中(MIS3)、晚(MIS2)3个阶段的冰进,其规模是MIS4/3阶段大于MIS2阶段;而长白山存在2期冰川作用的遗迹,即末次冰盛期(MIS2)和晚冰期.在相似的冬雨(雪)型季风影响区,冰川发育的时序与规模也有一定不同,反映出在大气候背景下的区域性差异,在东亚季风影响范围内,末次冰期的环流变化在各地也很不一致.最新推算的现代理论雪线自北(日本)向南(台湾)依次递增,范围是2750～4245 m,除日本北部的高纬地区雪线降低值400 m之外,末次冰盛期(LGM)的雪线降低值在800～1300 m之间,平均值1000 m左右.东亚沿海山地冰川发育与新构造运动密切相关,更新世山体的快速抬升为冰川发育的内因,如台湾山地在末次冰期的MIS3b阶段,山体的抬升量约为250 m,对山体的高度和雪线变化有很大影响.     

Interannual variation of East Asian summer monsoon and its impacts on general circulation and precipitation

Using NCEP/NCAR reanalysis geopotential height (GHT) and wind at 850 hPa, GHT at 500 hPa, precipitation rate, sea level pressure (SLP) and precipitation observations from more than 600 stations nationwide in June–August from 1951 to 2006, and focusing on the East Asia–West Pacific region (10o–80oN, 70o–180oE), interannual variation of East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and its correlations with general circulation and precipitation patterns are studied by using statistical diagnostic methods such as 9-point high pass filtering, empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis, composite analysis and other statistical diagnosis, etc. It is concluded as follows: (1) EOF analysis of SLP in the East Asia–West Pacific region shows the existence of the zonal dipole oscillation mode (APD) between the Mongolia depression and the West Pacific high, and APD index can be used as an intensity index of EASM. (2) EOF analysis of GHT anomalies at 500 hPa in the East Asia–West Pacific region shows that the first EOF mode is characterized with an obvious meridional East Asian pattern (EAP), and EAP index can also be used as an EASM intensity index. (3) The composite analysis of high/low APD index years reveals the close correlation of APD index with EAP at 500 hPa (or 850 hPa). The study shows an obvious opposite correlation exists between APD index and EAP index with a correlation coefficient of –0.23, which passes the confidence test at 0.10 level. (4) Both APD and EAP indexes are closely correlated with precipitation during flood-prone season in China and precipitation rate over the East Asia–West Pacific region. The significant correlation area at 5% confidence level is mainly located from the southern area of the Yangtze River valley to the ocean around southern Japan, and the former is a positive correlation and the latter is a negative one.

陇西黄土沉积记录反映的末次间冰期以来青藏高原东北部季风的演化过程

对黄土高原西部的陇西盆地中断岘黄土剖面地层中的磁化率、粒度、CaCO3含量和有机碳含量等气候代用指标进行了综合分析。研究表明,青藏高原东北部地区在末次间冰期以来,其冬、夏季风的变化分别经历了多次相对增强的时期;其演化阶段基本可与深海氧同位素曲线(SPEC-MAP)对比,并且与同期的印度洋季风强度变化存在着较高的一致性。由此可以认为,全球冰量变化可能不是控制青藏高原季风演变的决定因素,而其它因素如太阳辐射变化及高原下垫面状况对高原季风演化可能具有更为重要的意义。     

Chronology of the Holocene loess-paleosol section and its deposition and pedogenesis on the south of Chinese Loess Plateau

Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating for polymineral fine-grained loess samples, collected in Laoguantai (LGT) section on the south of the Chinese Loess Plateau, was made by application of single-aliquot regenerative-dose (SAR) protocol. A ‘Double-SAR’ procedure in which aliquots are subjected to both infrared (IR) and blue stimulations was used, and two sets of equivalent dose (De) determinations were produced and assumed to relate predominantly to feldspathic and quartz fine grain populations respectively. The OSL ages estimated from IRSL signals are smaller than those estimated from [post-IR] OSL signals due to the anomalous fading of feldspar IR signals, based on fading experiment. The young ages of the samples near ground surface may be originated from the post-depositional disturbance by the intensifying humanity’s cultivation since 3.0 ka BP in the Guanzhong Basin, south of the Chinese Loess Plateau. Based on OSL dating, as well as field observations and stratigraphic correlation, we determine the chronology of the LGT loess-paleosol sequence. In combination with climate proxy records, it is indicated that aeolian loess deposition and pedogenesis underwent polyphase changes during the Holocene, likely to have been driven by shifts in the East Asian monsoon. This suggests that aeolian loess deposition is episodic and highly variable, with contributions from non-aeolian processes such as alluvial deposition found in the area.

近159年东亚夏季风年代际变化与中国东部旱涝分布(英文)

Based on the drought/flood grades of 90 meterological stations over eastern China and summer average sea-level pressure (SLP) during 1850–2008 and BPCCA statistical methods, the coupling relationship between the drought/flood grades and the East Asian summer SLP is analyzed. The East Asian summer monsoon index which is closely related with interdecadal variation of drought/flood distribution over eastern China is defined by using the key areas of SLP. The impact of the interdecadal variation of the East Asian summer monsoon on the distribution of drought/flood over eastern China in the last 159 years is researched. The results show that there are four typical drought and flood spatial distribution patterns in eastern China, i.e. the distribution of drought/flood in southern China is contrary to the other regions, the distribution of drought/flood along the Huanghe River–Huaihe River Valley is contrary to the Yangtze River Valley and regions south of it, the distribution of drought/flood along the Yangtze River Valley and Huaihe River Valley is contrary to the other regions, the distribution of drought/flood in eastern China is contrary to the western. The main distribution pattern of SLP in summer is that the strength of SLP is opposite in Asian continent and West Pacific. It has close relationship between the interdecadal variation of drought/flood distribution patterns over eastern China and the interdecadal variation of the East Asian summer monsoon which was defined in this paper, but the correlation is not stable and it has a significant difference in changes of interdecadal phase. When the East Asian summer monsoon was stronger (weaker), regions north of the Yangtze River Valley was more susceptible to drought (flood), the Yangtze River Valley and regions south of it were more susceptible to flood (drought) before the 1920s; when the East Asian summer monsoon was stronger (weaker), the regions north of the Yangtze River Valley was prone to flood (drought), the Yangtze River Valley and regions south of it were prone to drought (flood) after the 1920s. It is indicated that by using the data of the longer period could get much richer results than by using the data of the last 50–60 years. The differences in the interdecadal phase between the East Asian summer monsoon and the drought/flood distributions in eastern China may be associated with the nonlinear feedback, which is the East Asian summer monsoon for the extrinsic forcing of solar activity.

神农架石笋记录的近200年东亚季风变化及其ENSO响应

通过湖北省神农架永兴洞石笋(编号:YX92)230Th年龄和纹层计数年代学研究,建立了1788AD-1956AD时段年际分辨率石笋氧同位素序列。该序列δ18O值变化范围为-9.70‰~-7.87‰,最大振幅约达1.83‰,呈现显著的年代际尺度振荡旋回特征。功率谱分析结果揭示存在显著的60~70年准周期信号。该记录与同区域和尚洞石笋δ18O曲线具有很好的重现性,说明其可能受控于共同的气候因子,指示了东亚夏季风大尺度环流特征。将石笋重建的东亚夏季风指标与全印度夏季降水量指示的印度夏季风指数对比,结果显示两者在年代际旋回特征上具有很好的相似性,但是呈反相位关系。进一步与ENSO指数对比,发现东亚夏季风年代际尺度变化与ENSO存在密切联系,表现为东亚夏季风增强,对应于ENSO暖期,反之亦然。因此,东亚季风与印度季风在年代际尺度上的反相位关系可能源于两者对ENSO机制的不同响应。     

多种东亚冬季风指数及其与中国东部气候关系的比较

利用NCEP/NCAR再分析资料及气温和降水观测资料,对比分析了12种不同定义的东亚冬季风(EAWM)指数及其与中国东部冬季温度和降水的关系。结果显示:多数EAWM指数具有较好的一致性,同时也存在差异,体现了不同定义的指数反映东亚冬季风整体性和局部性特征的侧重点有所不同。有10个EAWM指数均反映出近60年东亚冬季风呈减弱趋势,尤其是近30年最为明显,平均减弱速率达-0.25σ/10a,各指数均有强烈的年际变率和年代际波动。有10个(8个)EAWM指数与我国东部冬季温度(降水)第1模态呈显著负相关;其中西伯利亚高压指数对冬季温度年际变率方差解释率最高(53.3%),而对降水年际变率方差解释率最高的是对流层中高层东亚经向风指数(50.4%)。此外,不同EAWM指数与温度和降水的对应关系在El Niňo状态、La Niňa状态有不同的变化,表明在利用单个EAWM指数监测冬季气候时,要考虑到各个指数在ENSO不同状态下具有的差异性参考意义。
