Holocene Yellow Silt Layers and the Paleoclimate Event of 8200 a B.P. in Lop Nur, Xinjiang, NW China
Holocene Yellow Silt Layers and the Paleoclimate Event of 8200 a B.P. in Lop Nur, Xinjiang, NW China
摘要
Abstract
Many yellow silt layers have been identified in the Holocene sediments in the last lake of Lop Nur (playa),Xinjiang, northwestern China. Statistics of drill-hole cores have revealed more than one hundred layers, which exhibitregularity in time sequence. Study has further verified that these yellow silt layers were deposited through eolianprocesses. The time-frequency distribution diagram shows an obvious peak occurring at about 8200 a B.P., which isconsistent with the dry, windy and cold climate event occurring at 8200 a in other places around the world. Therefore, thisevent is regarded as a response to the global climate change.关键词
