Based on synthetic analyses for thevariation of the content of organic carbon, sporo-pollen composition and lithofacies, the fluc-tuating model of paleo-climate since 750 ka B.P. was set up. It is divided into 21 fluctua-ting epochs of climate, among them, 11 are warm and humid epochs, and 10 are dry andcold epochs.展开更多

A succession of Neogene clastic sediments indicates lake depocentre migration from NW to SE.

Continued deformation through Pleistocene developed a series of NW- SE trending domes and troughs. This setting continued to exert a controlling influence on basin and brine evolution and the progressive development of sulfate to chloride brines as, dry conditions intensified in late Pleistocene, at the end of which, extensive flat floors were formed in Dalangtan, Qarhan and other playas.The, model, which was set up based on the synthetic analyses, divides the fluctuating palaeoclimate since 750ka,B.
