英文摘要 | The East Asian coastal mountains have been in place during the Late Cretaceous times, thus substantially influencing the Asian climate. So far, their altitude is uncertain. Here we investigate the influence of such mountains on Asian climate using an atmosphere-ocean general circulation model, Community Earth System Model version 1.2.2. Simulation results show that extensive deserts would develop over the eastern part of the East Asia if the altitude of the coastal mountains was greater than 2 km. This is due to the pumping effect of the coastal mountains which deprives the moisture from the East Asian interior during summer and autumn, leading to less precipitation and greater potential evapotranspiration. The existence of extensive desert areas would be more consistent with the presented Asian paleoenvironmental reconstructions. Therefore, our results independently indicate that the altitude of the coastal mountains had attained 2 km or more by the early Late Cretaceous. |
