英文摘要 | Westerlies-dominated arid central Asia (ACA) has a very fragile ecological environment that highly depends on the available moisture sources. However, the moisture history of this region during the Holocene has been a controversial topic for several decades. Here, we performed optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating and grain-size analysis of aeolian sediments from the eastern Balikun Basin. Our results demonstrated that the early Holocene climate in the Balikun Basin was dry (before ~6.5 ka) and then became wetter during the mid-late Holocene. This Holocene climate pattern correlates well with other climatic inferences from various proxies acquired at various ACA locations, further supporting an earlier view that the Holocene climate in ACA was out of phase with that of the East Asia summer monsoon. Furthermore, an extremely dry event at 4.3-2.6 ka correlated well with pollen records and a decrease of ~4 degrees C in temperature in the western Balikun Lake, but this event was not evident in other ACA regions. Finally, Mingsha Shan Sand Dunes in the eastern Balikun Basin initially accumulated in the earliest Holocene. We suggest that the early Holocene dry climate in the ACA region and the local geomorphology are responsible for the formation of the Mingsha Shan Sand Dunes. |
