英文摘要 | Despite of the fast development of speleothem records, oxygen isotope (delta O-18), the main paleoclimatic proxy, remains complicated in climatic interpretation. Continuous cave monitoring is essential for understanding the response of stalagmite oxygen isotope to East Asian Summer Monsoon moisture transportation. We introduce a 7 years (2010-2016) study on oxygen isotope of atmospheric precipitation, cave drips and modern speleothems at Jiguan Cave, central China, located Chinese north-south divide where is sensitive to Asian Monsoon. The monitoring covered a whole ENSO (El Nino Southern Oscillation) cycle, from El Nino in 2010 to La Nina in 2011 and recovered another El Nino in 2015. The precipitation delta O-18 shows obvious seasonality (negative in summer and positive in winter), but air temperature and rainfall amount are not primary controlling factors. The interannual delta O-18 of precipitation corresponds with ENSO variability, which means delta O-18 value is positive during El Nino event and vice versa. We used HYSPLIT (Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory) model to simulate the moisture transportation for rainy season in El Nino and La Nina years, and found the Pacific contributed over 50% moisture in El Nino years and the Indian Ocean was the predominant oceanic source in La Nina year. There is no seasonality in drips delta O-18 value, while the response to ENSO variability is evident on interannual scale. The stable negative delta O-18 of drips compared with precipitation indicate there is a threshold for infiltration, suggesting cave drips are recharged by summer heavy precipitation with light delta O-18 value, but it's the mixture of latest and former rainy precipitation that recharge drips in drought, which has been verified by simple infiltration model. We found the modern speleothems were precipitated under nonequilibrium fractionation during drought years, nevertheless, they can record the El Nino related delta O-18 positive anomaly. Overall, the modern speleothems can receive the precipitation delta O-18 signal transferred by drips, and our study offers significance for verification of Asian Summer Monsoon driving force and interpretation of stalagmite delta O-18. |
