On the basis of comprehensive investigations of the evolution of the lake's surface and sediments on the plateau, the authors have further demonstrated the existence of a pan-lake stage (river and lake flooding stage) on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau during the period of about 40+-28 ka B.P. and analyzed the palaeoclimatic characteristics of the pan-lake period and relationships between the ancient monsoons and the uplift of the plateau since the beginning of the Quaternary.展开更多
对位于渤海湾西北岸晚更新世早期滦河冲积扇中部的TD1孔进行了磁性地层学、14C测年、沉积旋回、测井沉积学、孢粉地层学和介形类研究,结果表明:(1)220m深的钻孔地层记录了古地磁学布容(Brunhes)、松山(Matuyama)和高斯(Gauss)极性时,...对位于渤海湾西北岸晚更新世早期滦河冲积扇中部的TD1孔进行了磁性地层学、14C测年、沉积旋回、测井沉积学、孢粉地层学和介形类研究,结果表明:(1)220m深的钻孔地层记录了古地磁学布容(Brunhes)、松山(Matuyama)和高斯(Gauss)极性时,钻孔底部层位年龄接近3.45 Ma。(2)钻孔揭示了滦河冲积扇中部地层结构,最厚的湖相沉积地层出现在上新世,第四纪以来主要由辫状河流体系分支河道相与相关沉积构成。(3)测井相与岩心沉积相分析结合显示,约3.45Ma以来出现6个大沉积旋回,与冲积扇顶端钻孔所见沉积旋回在深度上基本可以对比,其中3.2、3.0、2.0和0.78Ma的沉积旋回分别覆于全孔4期浅水湖泊—湖沼沉积物之上;末次盛冰期与渤海湾西岸钻孔一样出现浊黄橙色沉积,显示低水位域的沉积特征。(4)尽管古季风可以导致降水增多并出现湖沼沉积,但是该钻孔有机质含量最高的是在6 ka BP层位,中全新世大暖期气候对该地水热状况影响最大。展开更多

According to the discovery of lake terraces and highstand lacustrine deposits at several places in Nam Co and its adjacent areas, the authors confirm the existence of an ancient large lake in the southeastern part of the northern Tibetan Plateau. On the basis of the U-series, 14C and ESR dating, coupled with the levelling survey of lake deposits and geomorphology, the evolutionary process of the ancient large lake in the southeastern part of the northern Tibetan Plateau may fall into three stages: (1) the ancient large lake stage at 115-40 ka BP, when the ancient lake level was 140-26 m above the level of present Nam Co; (2) the outflow lake stage at 40-30 ka BP, when the ancient level was 26-19 m above the present lake level; and (3) the Nam Co stage since 30 ka BP, when the ancient lake level was < 19 m above the present lake level. During the ancient large lake stage, a large number of modern large, medium-sized and small lakes, including Nam Co, Siling Co and Zhari Namco, in the southeastern part of the northern Tibetan Plateau, were connected into a single large ancient lake, rather than several separate lakes connected by river channels. Its areal extent may have gone beyond the watersheds of the modern endorheic and exorheic drainage systems; so it may be called the 'ancient east lake', 'ancient south lake' and 'ancient west lake'. It might also be connected with other ancient lakes in the southern and western parts of the northern Tibetan Plateau to form a unified 'ancient large lake' on the northern Tibetan Plateau.展开更多
文摘The Qinghai-Tibet plateau is one of major saline lake regions in China, where saline lakes are widespread and constitute an important object of researches on the palaeoclimatic change in the region. On the basis of comprehensive investigations of the evolution of the lake's surface and sediments on the plateau, the authors have further demonstrated the existence of a pan-lake stage (river and lake flooding stage) on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau during the period of about 40+-28 ka B.P. and analyzed the palaeoclimatic characteristics of the pan-lake period and relationships between the ancient monsoons and the uplift of the plateau since the beginning of the Quaternary.
