英文摘要 | Surface sediments such as aeolian sand, loess/sandy loess, and fluvial/alluvial clastics are widespread in the Yarlung Tsangpo (YT) catchment and across the Tibetan Plateau (TP). However, it is debated whether the source of the aeolian sediments is local or remote, involving transport across large regions, and whether the surface sediments, especially aeolian deposits, are a major source of global dust. Here, we use strontium-neodymium (Sr-Nd) isotopic analysis and modern observations of dust emissions to investigate the provenance of aeolian sediments from the YT catchment and adjacent areas during different periods (modern, Holocene, Late Pleistocene), and the relationship between surface sediments of the TP and the dust component of sediments in the Japan Sea and the North Pacific Ocean. Strontium-87/strontium-86 (Sr-87/Sr-86) and neodymium isotopic ratio (epsilon(Nd)) show a wide range of variation in different areas (Sr-87/Sr-86 varies from 0.707996 to 0.731078, and epsilon(Nd) from -6.2 to -13.6), influenced by the composition of the clastic material derived from the local parent rock; additionally, there are no significant variations between size fractions. Due to local recycling the aeolian sedimentary systems in the southern TP are supplied with clastic material from proximal sources, and they are unlikely to receive large quantities of long-range dust transported from regions such as the Taklimakan desert in Central Asia. Dust emission occurs mainly in the dry season (from March to May) and the dust is carried on the upper-level westerly jet stream and then deposited downwind in the Japan Sea and the North Pacific Ocean, thus contributing to global dust. |
