A STALAGMITE-RECORD OF EAST ASIAN SUMMER MONSOON IN THE LAST 2000 YEARS AND ITS CORRELATION WITH HISTORICAL RECORDS

College of Geography Science, Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing 210046

摘要

摘要: 基于湖北神农架犀牛洞石笋(SN)21个²³⁰Th年龄及486个δ¹⁸O数据,建立了近2 000年来平均分辨率4~5 a的δ¹⁸O时间序列。该记录显示,近两千多年来东亚夏季风强度总体呈逐步减弱趋势,并叠加数次数十年到百年尺度的振荡旋回,中世纪暖期及小冰期显示独特特征。石笋δ¹⁸O曲线与北半球(33°N)太阳辐射曲线一致,揭示了近2 000 a来亚洲季风变化主要受控于太阳辐射的变化。通过与历史气候记录对比发现,汉朝和唐朝对应δ¹⁸O偏负即相对稳定的气候阶段,而三国、两晋、南北朝、宋朝及明朝均对应于正偏且波动较大的δ¹⁸O值,存在旱涝灾害频繁交替现象,说明朝代的兴衰更替在一定程度上和气候变化存在某种联系。

Abstract: A 4-5 year resolution oxygen isotope record based on 21²³⁰Th dates and 486 oxygen isotope data from a 236-mm-long stalagmite, which was collected from Xi-niu Cave in Shengnongjia, Hubei Province, provides a detailed history of the East Asian Summer Monsoon (EASM) during the past 2000 years. Our δ¹⁸O sequence reveals that EASM intensity gradually weakened in the last 2000 years, superimposed by numerous decades or century-scale aridity/moisture oscillations, showing a characteristics of the typical Medieval Warming Period and Little Ice Age. The δ¹⁸O record generally correlates well with the summer insolation at 33°N, indicating that the long-term trend of the EASM is likely modulated by summer insolation. A comparison with history literatures shows that periods of constant negative δ¹⁸O values (stable moisture periods) occur during the Han and Tang Dynasties, while intervals of positive yet large oscillation in δ¹⁸O values (aridity and abrupt monsoon variability) correspond to the War Era, Song and Ming Dynasties, indicating frequent plagues of aridity/flood. This relationship suggests a clear link between climate change and the demise of these dynasties, and climate variability probably played an important role in Culture evolution.
