英文摘要 | Central Asian lakes are crucial for sustaining fragile oasis ecosystems in arid regions. Understanding the response of ecosystems in these lake basins to climate change is essential for predicting future variations in these ecosystems. Aibi Lake is a notable terminal lake in arid Central Asia. In this study, a 95 cm lacustrine sediment core was drilled from Aibi Lake to investigate the response of lacustrine and terrestrial ecosystems in the lake basin to climate change over the past 3200 years. Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) 14 C dating and multi-proxy analyses of diatoms, pollen, grain size, total organic content (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), and total hydrogen (TH) are applied to the sediment core. The grain size and geochemical results show that the lake experienced elevated levels and improved productivity and nutrition during the periods of 708 -181 BCE, 0 -740 CE, and 1428 -1900 CE. The periods align with the Roman Warm Period, Dark Age Cold Period, and Little Ice Age, respectively. For the past 3200 years, benthic diatoms have consistently been the dominant species in the lake. During the climatic transition periods of the Dark Age Cold Period, Medieval Warm Period, and Little Ice Age, there were significant changes in the abundance and survival of certain species of diatoms. Specifically, the halophilic species ( Nitzschia dissipata and Nitzschia hungarica ), basophilic species ( Synedra acus ), and the nutrition level-relevant species ( Navicula menisculus ) experienced notable shifts. These changes ultimately resulted in a noticeable alteration in the structure and function of the diatom community. Over the past 3200 years, the lake ecosystem has undergone three noticeable regime shifts. In contrast, the vegetation in the lake catchment has remained relatively stable, primarily consisting of desert steppe. These results suggest that aquatic ecosystems in arid central Asia are more susceptible and exhibit more rapid responses to climate change compared to terrestrial vegetation. |
