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。     

萨拉乌苏河流域MGS2层段主要氧化物变化及其指示的气候波动

萨拉乌苏河流域与MIS2相同时代的MGS2地层段记录了5.5个由风成砂与河流相或湖沼相构成的沉积旋回,通过对各沉积旋回的主要氧化物分析表明：河湖相中Al2O3、TOFE、K2O、MgO、CaO、Na2O、TiO含量通常明显高于风成砂,而SiO2含量则呈现相反的变化,构成了与沉积旋回相对应的5.5个主要氧化物变化旋回。结合各主要氧化物的化学迁移特性和剖面所在区域的地貌特征进行分析,认为该剖面的主要氧化物变化旋回是气候波动的反映,一个主要氧化物含量变动旋回指示了一个干冷-暖湿旋回,也即一个冬夏季风先后演替的气候旋回。MGS2持续的时间仅为12 ka,一个冬夏季风环境的变化大致平均仅需要2 ka,一个冬季风或者夏季风环境的平均持续时间大约1 ka。显然,这是一个千年尺度的环境变化。研究还表明,MGS2气候波动与晚冰期气候变化以及相关的Heinrich事件具有良好的对应关系。可以推断,MGS2记录的千年尺度环境变化是全球环境变化在本区域的反映。     

220 ka以来萨拉乌苏河流域地层磁化率与气候变化

 萨拉乌苏河流域滴哨沟湾剖面磁化率变化结果表明:近220 ka来我国北方气候变化极不稳定,存在着不同尺度的频繁变化,特别是寒冷气候阶段变化尤为频繁,其中倒数第二次冰期存在5个气候旋回,末次冰期存在10个气候旋回。这些气候变化与深海氧同位素、极地冰芯反映的全球变化具有良好的对应关系,反映了该区气候变化与全球变化的一致性。控制本区气候变化的主要因素是全球冰量变化及太阳辐射影响的东亚季风变化。     

萨拉乌苏河流域微量元素揭示的气候变化

根据毛乌素沙漠东南缘萨拉乌苏河流域滴哨沟湾剖面中更新世晚期以来风成砂与河湖相互为叠覆的沉积记录,利用SPSS软件对P、V、Cr等16种微量元素及Rb/Sr和Sr/Ba比值进行了聚类和相关分析。结果表明：除Sr、Ba、Rb/Sr和Sr/Ba之外的P、V、Cr等14中微量元素反映的气候变化规律较好,其含量的峰值段对应河湖相沉积,而谷值段对应风成砂沉积。根据微量元素含量变化特征及其与地层的对应关系,将萨拉乌苏河流域中更新世晚期以来的气候变化划分为5个阶段：223～196 ka BP,气候温暖湿润,相当于黄土高原S2古土壤发育期;196～148 ka BP,气候干冷,相当于黄土高原L2黄土发育期,属倒数第二次冰期;148～75 ka BP,气候温暖湿润,对应末次间冰期;75～10 ka BP,气候干冷,对应末次冰期;10 ka BP以来,气候以温湿为主。各个阶段还有气候冷暖干湿波动变化。通过与深海氧同位素阶段,冰芯记录变化对比,发现本区气候变化与全球变化具有较好的一致性。     

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。     

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。     

萨拉乌苏河流域高分辨率的沙丘砂常量元素分布指示的全新世寒冷事件

The components of the primary elements in the dune sands for the MGS1 subsection of the Milanggouwan section in the Salawusu River valley, compared with those of modern dune sands, show that they were caused by East Asian winter monsoon in the Mu Us desert during Holocene. The examined ages for the 11 layers of dune sands, based on the average sedimentary rate, are： 0 to 960, 1350-2240, 2470 to 3530, 4000 to 4180, 4290 to 4350, 4380 to 4760, 5040 to 5920, 6570 to 8270, 9020 to 9700, 9880 to 10160 and 10580 to 11080 a BP, respectively. The climatic events indicated by these dune sands are consistent with those records in the Huguangyan volcanic lake, Zoige peat bog, Hulu cave and Dunde ice core, particularly with the climatic fluctuations of the North Atlantic since 11 000 a BP. Among them, patterns from B0 to B8 correspond to the peak values of 0MD, 2D, 4D, 6D＋8D＋10D, 12D, 14D, 16D, 18D and 20D respectively. It might be caused by the North Atlantic ice age induced by the heat circulation, which strengthened the polar high pressure and Siberian-Mongolian high pressure and further led to the dominance of the winter monsoon over China＇s desert area.

巴丹吉林沙漠东南缘查格勒布鲁剖面CGS1层段粒度特征及其指示的全新世千年尺度气候变化

位于巴丹吉林沙漠东南缘的查格勒布鲁剖面CGS1层段记录了全新世以来显示风力强弱的沙丘砂与黄土堆积旋回。以Md（Φ）、Mz（Φ）的5 Φ（31.5 μm）为界,可以划分出10个“C1-C10”明显的和1个“C11”较弱的（<5 Φ）旋回变化。其中,有7个属于沙丘砂与之上覆黄土或古土壤构成的旋回。这些旋回在Md（Φ）、Mz（Φ）上显示出多谷峰波动的形式。不仅如此,粒度的σ、SC/D值和>63 μm含量亦随之响应。研究认为,CGS1层段粗粒和细粒层位Md（Φ）等参数和>63 μm含量的变化分别代表了东亚冬夏季风的作用过程;冬季风时期的C1与北大西洋IRD事件的冷期B0和B1,C2、C3、C4依次与B2、B3、B4,C7、C9、C10依次与B5、B6、B7在时间-气候性质上具有很好的对应;北大西洋B8冷期在CGS1中没有明显表现,但仍然能够在Md（Φ）、Mz（Φ）曲线上看到这是一个<5 Φ的低值时期,而>63 μm的含量相应增高;C5、C6和C8寒冷时段虽未见于北大西洋,但在中国一些地点却有发现。这些由若干粒度指标反映出来的寒冷事件表明,在全新世东亚夏季风活动盛行的总的形势下还存在频繁的千年尺度的冬季风波动。而尤为重要的是这些寒冷事件存在的与北大西洋寒冷事件的遥相关的关系表明,除C5、C6和C8以外的CGS1粒度记录的寒冷事件都隐含了北大西洋的强烈信号。从这个意义上来说,笔者讨论的内容可为全新世北半球的D/O震荡及其形成机制提供一个比较理想的东亚季风变化与中国沙漠区域环境响应的地质证据。     

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.

Cold events of Holocene indicated by primary elements distribution of the high-resolution sand dunes in the Salawusu River Valley

The components of the primary elements in the dune sands for the MGS1 subsec-tion of the Milanggouwan section in the Salawusu River valley, compared with those of mod-ern dune sands, show that they were caused by East Asian winter monsoon in the Mu Us desert during Holocene. The examined ages for the 11 layers of dune sands, based on the average sedimentary rate, are: 0 to 960, 1350–2240, 2470 to 3530, 4000 to 4180, 4290 to 4350, 4380 to 4760, 5040 to 5920, 6570 to 8270, 9020 to 9700, 9880 to 10160 and 10580 to 11080 a BP, respectively. The climatic events indicated by these dune sands are consistent with those records in the Huguangyan volcanic lake, Zoige peat bog, Hulu cave and Dunde ice core, particularly with the climatic fluctuations of the North Atlantic since 11 000 a BP.

It might be caused by the North Atlantic ice age induced by the heat circulation, which strengthened the polar high pressure and Siberian-Mongolian high pressure and further led to the dominance of the winter mon-soon over China’s desert area.     

汉江上游郧县辽瓦店剖面粒度组成特征及其意义

对汉江上游河谷辽瓦店（LWD）剖面的地层特征及粒度分布进行了研究,并与渭河河谷典型风成堆积物对比。结果表明：该剖面中黄土和古土壤的粒度组成以粗粉砂（10～50 μm）为主,频率曲线图、三角图、参数结构散点图等均指示它们具有相同的物质来源,但明显区别于洪水滞流沉积物;其地层序列、宏观特征和粒度分布与渭河河谷全新世黄土-古土壤序列具有良好的可比性。LWD剖面的黄土和古土壤具有风成的基本特性,但其粒度组成比渭河河谷黄土整体偏细,这可能与沙尘暴越过秦岭后强度减弱有关。
