Abstract  

Geochemical and grain size analysis on aeolian deposits in the DQ profile from Gonghe Basin, northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, indicated that the characteristics of regional winter and summer monsoonal variation was that when one was rising, the other was falling, and the climate had experienced several cold-dry and warm-wet cycles since the last glacial maximum (LGM) period. The cold and dry climate dominated the region in LGM period before 15.82 ka BP due to the stronger winter monsoon and weaker summer monsoon, but the climate was relatively cold and wet before 21 ka BP. In 15.82-9.5 ka BP, the summer monsoon strength increased and winter monsoon tended to be weaker, implying an obviously warm climate. During this period, the relatively cold and dry condition appeared in the Oldest Dryas and Younger Dryas with time of 14.7-13.7 ka BP and 12.1-9.5 ka BP respectively, while relatively warm and wet in 13.7-12.1 ka BP (Blling/Allerd period). The winter and summer monsoon strength presented a frequent fluctuation in Holocene and the relatively warm and wet emergeed in 9.5-7.0 ka BP due to the higher summer monsoon intensity. From 7.0 ka BP to 5.1 ka BP, the cycle of cold-dry and warm-wet climate was corresponding to the frequent fluctuation in winter and summer monsoon. The climate became warm and wet in 5.1-2.7 ka BP, accompanied with increased summer monsoon, but it tended to be cold and dry since 2.7 ka BP due to the enhanced winter monsoon strength. In addition, the evolution of regional winter and summer monsoon was coincident with the warm and cold records from the polar ice core. In other words, it indicated that the climatic variation in Gonghe Basin could be considered as a regional response to Global climate change.
