Abstract  

The "Old Red Sand" is widely distributed on the coasts of Fujian Province. Many studies have been made on the origin, age and laterization of the "Old Red Sand". In this paper, we focused on reconstructing the history of the Asian winter monsoon change. On the basis of granulometric analysis of samples with high-resolution, we got environmentally sensitive grain size component in Qingfeng profile by using grain size standard deviation parameter, which was proved that the selected sensitive grain size component were important proxy. The mean grain size of these environmentally sensitive components could be used to reconstruct the East Asian winter monsoon intensity. We reconstructed the history of the East Asian winter monsoon change since 44.0 ka with three main phases. (1) In 44.0-25.5 ka BP, the East Asian winter monsoon was relatively weak and increased gradually during fluctuating; (2) In 25.5-15.5 ka BP, the East Asian winter monsoon was the strongest with high-frequency fluctuation; (3) In 15.5-7.1ka BP, the East Asian winter monsoon was weak but remarkably enhanced during 11-10 ka BP. The East Asian winter monsoon recorded by mean grain size of the two neighboring sections had a good repeatability, so oscillation at the millennial scale should be a reliable signs of the East Asian winter monsoon intensity. There was a good consistency in climate change recorded by sensitive grain size components in the QF section and the stalagmites δ18O of Hulu Cave and Greenland GISP2 ice core, especially the Younger Dryas events and four Heinrich events were recorded bu the three proxies, but the signal of D-O cycles was relatively weak.

Key words:  Old Red Sand      environmentally sensitive grain size components      East Asian winter monsoon             Heinrich event
