全球变化背景下古气候学的研究越来越受到关注。利用多年来的文献记载和自然证据,对青藏高原东北部气候变化进行重建。并以若尔盖湿地为例,梳理了区域5000 a来气候变化对湿地植被类型、泥炭沼泽发育和文化发展产生的影响,探讨了气候变...全球变化背景下古气候学的研究越来越受到关注。利用多年来的文献记载和自然证据,对青藏高原东北部气候变化进行重建。并以若尔盖湿地为例,梳理了区域5000 a来气候变化对湿地植被类型、泥炭沼泽发育和文化发展产生的影响,探讨了气候变化、文化发展、沼泽发育三者之间可能具有的相互关系。指出青藏高原东北部5000—3000 a B.P.之间气候较为暖湿,其平均温度要高出现在2℃左右;3000 a B.P.至今为气候干冷期,其中1000 a B.P.左右是过去5000 a中最寒冷时期,近1000 a来气温呈缓慢回升趋势。区域的气候变化决定了植被类型,对泥炭沼泽的形成和发育发挥了重要作用,对文明进程的影响主要体现在气候变化通过影响沼泽的演替,从而改变人类活动的范围与早期文明的形成,同时人类的过度活动也在一定程度上影响了沼泽的分布格局及动态。但气候变化、沼泽发育和文化发展三者之间的关系有赖于多因素耦合,其具体机理有待更深入的研究。展开更多
