150ka B.P.以来萨拉乌苏河流域的CaCO3旋回

以米浪沟湾地层剖面作为萨拉乌苏河流域的典型剖面，探讨了150kaB.P.以来的CaCO3含量分布与气候变化的关系。1）该剖面CaCO3含量及其低-高变化同古风成沙与上覆河湖相或古土壤构成的没积旋回呈现出明显的对应关系。与米浪沟湾剖面的沉积旋回一样，CaCO3在分布上相应地构成了27个含量高低变化旋回。2)CaCO3在风成沙中含量的分布比较稀散，0.8%-7.18%，平均值2.50%；在河湖相和古土壤中土壤中相对富集，2.20%-14.90%，平均值5.74%。从而揭示出其时两者的气候背景是不同的，前者是干旱寒冷气候作用下的风力的侵蚀、搬运与堆积的产物；而后者则与暖湿气候环境下萨拉乌苏河流域地处鄂尔多斯高原和黄土高原这间特殊的低洼地貌位置有关。气候暖湿，河湖沼泽发育、成土成壤作用增强，低洼的集水条件有利于CaCO3的聚集。3）导致米浪沟湾剖面CaCO3的多旋回相对稀钐与聚集的根本原因可能是150kaB.P.以来北半球冰期-间冰期气候波动影响下乌素沙漠冬夏季风的多次更迭所致。     

萨拉乌苏河流域150 ka BP以来的粒度旋回

萨拉乌苏河流域米浪沟湾地层剖面150kaBP以来古流动砂丘砂与河湖相和古土壤在粒度上具有多次显著的粗细韵律交替变化，粒度参数-Mz、σ、Sk、Kg和SC/D亦随之响应为多波动峰谷交替的态势，同时，粒度特征值-φ5、φ16φ、φ25、φ50、φ84、φ9相应地表现为非常有节奏地跳动，据此，将米浪沟湾剖面划分为27个粒度粗细沉积旋回，并认为其是150kaBP以来在东亚冬夏古代季风交替影响下沙漠演变的一个颇为完整的气候-地质过程记录。

萨拉乌苏河流域MGS4层段记录的末次冰期早冰阶气候波动

萨拉乌苏河流域米浪沟湾末次冰期早冰阶时期记录了5.5个由古沙丘砂与河流相、湖沼相构成的沉积旋回。对各沉积旋回的粒度及微量元素分析表明,河流相和湖沼相的平均粒径Mz、分选系数σ和SC/D的值明显高于古沙丘砂,河湖相中的微量元素Mn、P、Rb、Zr、V、Ni含量普遍较古沙丘砂含量高,而Ba、Co等则呈现相反的变化;这些气候代用指标的波动构成了与沉积旋回相对应的5.5个粒度及微量元素变化旋回,指示了该地末次冰期早冰阶至少经历了6次冷干和5次暖湿的气候波动,其中若干次气候回暖事件和冷干事件可与格陵兰冰芯和葫芦洞石笋等记录的D/O事件和Heinrich事件相对应。米浪沟湾剖面地层记录的千年尺度气候波动既是对东亚季风环流演变历史的体现,同时也是对全球气候变化的响应。     

库姆塔格沙漠的形成时代与演化

库姆塔格沙漠腹地广泛出露含古风成砂的第四纪地层剖面。根据含古风成砂地层剖面的野外调查与地层年代的室内分析结果,并与已有的周边区域地质资料对比分析,库姆塔格沙漠形成至少始于早更新世初,到中更新世晚期285.9±42.9 ka BP沙漠已大面积扩展形成,奠定了现代沙漠环境格局。沙漠最初从西南部开始形成,之后向北和东北扩展。依据梭梭沟地层剖面,沙漠在第四纪演化过程中至少经历了19个沙漠正、逆过程旋回,平均周期约为110 ka。新构造运动对沙漠的形成演化和地貌的形成发育具有重要作用,构造了山间断陷盆地并使其逐渐向封闭的干旱盆地演化形成沙漠,受四周断裂控制沙漠整体形态呈"扫帚状"。分布在沙漠北部的独特砾石体地貌形成于晚更新世末(285.9±42.9)ka BP之后。     

毛乌素沙漠东南缘滴哨沟湾剖面DGS1层段粒度特征及其指示的全新世气候变化

分析滴哨沟湾剖面全新统DGS1段的粒度数据,认为流动沙丘砂、泥炭、砂质古土壤、古固定-半固定沙丘砂到湖沼相和次生黄土的颗粒总体上变细,分选变差。结合腹足类动物化石和湖沼相地层中石英砂粒表面电镜扫描,认为DGS1粒度结果实际上是全新世以来多次冬夏季风的交互演替过程的气候-地质记录。据此,将DGS1粒度信号记录的全新世气候分为4个阶段——全新世早期好转期、全新世鼎盛期、大暖期向寒冷期转变波动期和降温不稳定的沙漠化频繁变化时期。     

郧县盆地风成黄土—古土壤与汉江Ⅰ级阶地形成年龄研究

在对汉江上游河谷进行野外考察的基础上,就郧县盆地汉江Ⅰ级阶地及其风成黄土-古土壤覆盖层沉积学和理化性质进行了研究,并且采用OSL方法进行了测年断代.获得了26个OSL年龄数据,证实厚层风成黄土L1底部的年龄在25 ka BP,而剖面底部风成黄土-冲积砂层交互层(T1-al2)年龄范围在55-25 ka BP之间.地层年龄说明Ⅰ级阶地上黄土的堆积过程基本连续,汉江Ⅰ级阶地的发展经历了早期新构造抬升与河流下切阶段(55-25 ka BP)和晚期阶地面稳定接受沉积(25-0 ka BP)两个阶段.距今55 ka BP前后,新构造运动抬升和汉江下切作用加剧,河漫滩相沉积层开始脱离水面并接受风尘堆积物.这个过程持续到距今约25 ka BP,期间河水不时地淹没阶地面,从而形成了风成黄土-冲积砂交互的沉积学特征.距今约25 ka BP以来,河水不再淹没阶地,汉江Ⅰ级阶地最终形成,阶地面开始接受连续的风尘堆积.在汉江下切作用加剧的同时,全球性末次冰期的发展也逐步进入冰盛期,风尘活动强烈,在阶地表面堆积形成了厚层黄土.汉江Ⅰ级阶地形成以来,气候的变化使黄土覆盖层受到不同程度的风化成壤改造,形成了黄土-古土壤地层,其地层序列从下向上依次为:河流相砂卵石层(T1-al1)→黄土-冲积砂互层(T1-al2)→马兰黄土(L1)→过渡黄土(L1)→古土壤(S0)→近代黄土(L0)→表土(MS).这个层序记录汉江上游流域自从25 ka BP以来的气候变化经历末次冰期后东南季风逐渐加强、中全新世季风强盛、晚全新世季风衰退和气候变干的演变模式.

萨拉乌苏河流域MGS1层段粒度与CaCO3记录的全新世千年尺度的气候变化

 毛乌素沙漠东南缘萨拉乌苏河流域米浪沟湾剖面MGS1层段含有11个由古沙丘砂与河湖相或古土壤构成的沉积旋回。通过对该层段粒度和CaCO3的分析,发现其河湖沼相和古土壤的平均粒径、分选系数、偏度和峰态的值明显高于古沙丘砂;CaCO3含量在古沙丘砂及其上覆的河湖相和古土壤中依次变化于0.07%~0.32%（平均值为0.16%）、0.05%~1.50%（0.27%）和0.06%~1.42%（0.64%）,并与平均粒径呈显著相关（相关系数0.8）;构成与沉积旋回波动韵律相同的11个峰谷交替的粒度和CaCO3旋回,指示了全新世气候冷、暖的变化过程和东亚冬夏季风千年尺度交替变化的气候旋回。这些旋回中的冬季风主导时期可与北大西洋8 200、5 000、4 000、2 700、1 400 a BP等寒冷事件进行对比,和中国若干地点的气候波动具有良好对应关系,可能表明全新世东亚季风在全球大气、海洋、陆地和全球冰量变化的共同作用下,表现为干冷冬季风和暖湿夏季风的相互交替的千年尺度的气候变化特征。     

巴丹吉林沙漠查格勒布剖面微量元素反映的150 ka BP以来的气候变化

 通过对巴丹吉林沙漠查格勒布剖面150 ka BP以来地层层位中16种微量化学元素的分析发现:化学性质相对稳定的元素P、Mn、Zr、Cr、Pb、Rb、Nb、Y和相对活泼的元素V、Sr、Ni、Cu、Zn、As均随25个风成沙丘砂与黄土、古土壤、湖相、冲坡积砂土砾石层构成的沉积旋回显示为25个含量低-高变化旋回,呈跌宕起伏且多波动的锯齿状的元素相对迁移-聚集过程线。元素在风成沙中呈现的低值,揭示了干旱寒冷气候作用下风力的侵蚀搬运与堆积作用；在砂土砾石层特别是湖相、黄土和古土壤中相对富集,则与暖湿气候背景下剖面所处的特殊洼地地貌位置有关。上述变化特征主要是巴丹吉林沙漠南缘地区150 ka BP以来的25个干寒多风-温湿或暖湿的气候波动所致,其根本原因可能与全球冰期-间冰期气候波动影响下的东亚冬夏季风的“拉锯式”摆动有关。     

Grain-size cycles in Salawusu River valley since 150 ka BP

The palaeo-mobile dune sands and fluvio-lacustrine facies with palaeosols in Milanggouwan stratigraphic section of the Salawusu River valley situated at the southeast of the Mu Us Desert experienced abundant remarkable alternative changes of coarse and fine rhythms in grainsize since 150 ka BP, and the grain-size parameters — Mz,σ, Sk, Kg and SC/D also respond to the situation of multi-fluctuational alternations between peak and valley values. Simultaneity the grainsize eigenvalues — Φ5, F16, Φ25, Φ50, Φ75, Φ84 and Φ95 are respondingly manifested as greatly cadent jumpiness. Hereby, the Milanggouwan section can be divided into 27 grain-size coarse and fine sedimentary cycles, which can be regarded as a real and integreted record of climate-geological process of desert vicissitude resulted from the alternative evolvement of the ancient winter and summer monsoons of East Asia since 150 ka BP.     

Grain-size cycles in Salawusu River valley since 150 ka BP

Situated at the southeast Mu Us Desert on the Ordos Plateau of China, the Salawusu River valley, contains abundant environmental vicissitude information of the East Asia Monsoon since Late Quaternary and serves as an excellent site for researches of sedimentology and climatology etc. As early as 1924, the French paleontologists Teilhard de Chardin et al. found the Upper-Pleistocene Salawusu Formation and drew an outline of the 搃deal section through the loessic lands of N and the SE co…     

Sedimentary cycles of trace elements in Salawusu River Valley since 150 ka BP

The paper makes some analyses on 11 trace elements in the Milanggouwan stratigraphical section in the Salawusu River valley, which is regarded as a prototype geology-palaeoclimate record since 150 ka BP. The results show that the content and variation of trace elements has experienced remarkably regular changes in the pace with coarse and fine sedimentary cycles of palaeo-aeolian sands to its overlying fluvio-lacustrine facies or/and palaeosols. The trace elements with chemical properties of relatively active (V, Sr, Cu, Ni, As) and relatively stable (P, Pb, Rb, Mn, Nb, Zr) are a manifestation of the corresponding 27 changeable cycles between peak and valley values, appearing a multi-fluctuational process line of relative gathering and migration since then. The low numerical value distribution of these two types of trace elements in the aeolian sand facies represents erosion and accumulation under wind force during the cold-dry climate. Whereas their enrichments in both fluvio-lacustrine facies and palaeosols are related to the valley’s special low-lying physiognomic position between the Ordos Plateau and the Loess Plateau under the warm and humid climate conditions. The above relatively migrated and gathered change of the trace elements is the result of 27 climatic cycles of cold-dry and warm-humid, which is probably caused by repeated alternations of winter monsoon and summer monsoon in the Mu Us Sandy Land influenced by the climate vicissitudes in northern hemisphere during glacial and interglacial periods since 150 ka BP.

末次间冰期我国半干旱盆地Rb、Sr的迁移聚集规律与环境演变——以萨拉乌苏河流域米浪沟湾剖面研究结果为例

萨拉乌苏河流域米浪沟湾剖面末次间冰期层系记录了8.5个有风成的古沙丘砂与河湖相和/或古土壤构成的沉积旋回。该层系Rb、Sr元素含量分布具有明显的规律,主要表现为古沙丘砂中的Rb、Sr含量相对迁移,而在上覆河湖相和/或古土壤中相对聚集,构成末次间冰期的Rb、Sr含量迁移与聚集的8.5个元素旋回。研究表明,由Rb、Sr含量变化构成的这些旋回主要是由干冷暖湿气候波动所致。该地末次间冰期层系由上至下可划分为5个层段,即MS1~MS5。Rb、Sr含量在MS1、MS3、MS5和MS2、MS4分别呈现明显的峰态和不同程度的低谷,揭示出前者与后者分别是受到暖湿和干冷气候影响的阶段。据此,可以将 MS1、MS2、MS3、MS4和MS5依次在气候性质和阶段上可与GRIP冰芯和Sulu 海MIS5a、5b、5c、5d、5e诸亚段进行对比。研究亦表明,河湖相和古土壤Rb/Sr曲线却都不尽是峰态,黄土高原Rb/Sr值的气候意义并不完全适宜说明半干旱盆地或洼地的古环境变化。     

柳夼剖面末次冰期层段Rb/Sr的不稳定变化及其揭示的气候特征

位于山东半岛北部成山头附近的末次冰期地层,被称为“柳夼红层”。在野外调查的基础上,选择柳夼剖面进行工作,其末次冰期地层主要由沙丘砂与古土壤或湖积层叠覆堆积组成,地质时代为13.1―78.9 ka BP。根据铷、锶、Rb/Sr和矿物组成的分析结果,得出结论如下：1）不稳定矿物尤其是钾长石和斜长石等分解释放出铷、锶,释放量随着风化作用加强而增加。地球化学行为的差异使铷在风化过程中被吸附而锶淋失,导致铷的质量分数在沉积相中表现为沙丘砂＜砂质古土壤＜湖积层＜粉砂质古土壤,锶则表现为沙丘砂＞湖积层＞砂质古土壤＞粉砂质古土壤。2）铷、锶和Rb/Sr在层段上呈现出明显的峰谷变化,将末次冰期的气候波动特征呈现为LKS4、LKS2的寒冷期和LKS3的温暖期,LKS3又可划分为LKS3b的寒冷期和LKS3c、LKS3a的温暖期,体现了万年尺度的气候波动特征。这些暖阶段同步于中国季风区葫芦洞石笋记录的夏季风强盛期和65°N 7月份天文辐射总量的高峰,冷阶段对应于夏季风减弱期和天文辐射总量低谷,表明柳夼剖面末次冰期的气候变化是太阳辐射量和东亚夏季风格局共同影响下的结果。     

萨拉乌苏河流域米浪沟湾剖面主元素记录的末次间冰阶气候波动

 位于鄂尔多斯高原萨拉乌苏河米浪沟湾剖面是重建毛乌素沙地晚更新世以来古气候的理想地点。其末次间冰阶(MIS3)层序含4种沉积相,划分为19个沉积单元,构成9.5个风成的砂丘砂与河流相、湖相和古土壤交替的沉积旋回。主元素分析结果显示,该剖面MIS3层序中河流相、湖相和古土壤的Al2O3、TOFE、CaO、MgO、K2O、Na2O、TiO2含量明显高于古风成砂, 而SiO2则相反, 构成与沉积旋回相应的9.5个元素波动旋回。这些元素旋回指示了该地末次间冰阶至少经历了10次温湿(W事件)和9次冷干(C事件)气候波动,且可划分为MIS3e(58.90~49.50 ka BP)、MIS3d(49.50~40.70 ka BP)、MIS3c(40.70~36.90 ka BP)、MIS3b(36.90~27.00 ka BP)和MIS3a(27.00~22.30 ka BP)等5个亚段。其中, 19次冷/暖波动可与格陵兰GRIP冰芯δ18O冰段/间冰段大致对应, 5个亚段与我国古里雅冰芯和V23-81冷性浮游有孔虫数代表的北大西洋地区气候也具有较好的可比性。     

Sedimentary characteristics of paleo-aeolian dune sands of Salawusu Formation in the Salawusu River Valley

The Salawusu Formation of Milanggouwan section in Salawusu River Valley in-cludes 7 layers of paleo-mobile dune sands, and 4 layers of paleo-fixed and semi-fixed dune sands. Their structures have been observed and their grain size, surface textural features and several main chemical elements have been analyzed. The results showed that: 1) Some of the aeolian structural characteristics of these dune sands are similar to that of the recent dune sands. 2) They are also similar to the recent dune sands in grain size components, and parameters of Mz, σ, Sk and Kg, as well as in several main chemical components. 3) The scattergrams of Mz-σ and SiO2–Al2O3+TOFE and the probability curves of grain size showed that these paleo-dune sands are different from paleosols and fluvio-lacustrine facies, but are consistency with recent dune sands. 4) Quartz sands have well roundness and surface textural features such as dish-shaped pits, crescent-shaped pits, pockmarked pits, upturned cleavage plates, siliceous precipitates and siliceous crevasses, indicating that they had been carried for a long time by the wind. As the 11 layers of paleo-dune sands possess the aeolian characteristics in structure, grain size, surface textural features and chemical elements, the origin of their formation should be attributed to eolation.
