The results show thatfrom 0.0 Ma to 0.8 Ma there exists a quadratic phase coupling between ～100 ka period and the period components of precession(16 ka) and semiprecession(about 13.8 ka, 12.4 ka, 11.1 ka), while from 1.6 Ma to 2.6 Ma, between 128 ka period and the period components of precession(19.3 ka and 16.8 ka) and semiprecession (about 10 ka). Evidence from the above calculation suggests that nonlinear interaction between precession and semiprecession waves may be the cause to produce ～100 ka cyclicity in loess records.展开更多
