英文摘要 | Lake-level reconstructions aid in clarifying the relationship between climatic and hydrological changes and serve as a reference for predicting future hydrological evolution trends in the context of current global warming. Serling Co, which undergoes frequent lake-level changes in central Tibet, is an ideal study area; however, the paleohydrological evolution of this region remains contested. In this study, we analyzed tetraether lipids in Serling Co sediments and successfully reconstructed quantitatively the lake-level history since 25.1 cal kyr BP using its derived lake-level proxies (%OH-GDGTs, %Cren, and Cren/Cren' ratio) and salinity proxies (the relative abundance of archaeol to caldarchaeol (ACE) and archaeol to brGDGTs (ACE')). The results indicate that Serling Co experienced a low lake-level stage during the Last Glacial Maximum, a severe fluctuation stage during the last deglaciation, and a relatively high lake-level stage in the Holocene, corresponding to typical climatic events. The evolution of the lake level in Serling Co is comparable to paleoclimate records from the Tibetan Plateau, sug-gesting consistent Indian summer monsoon (ISM) dynamics. The increase in precipitation caused by the enhanced ISM may be the main cause for the rise of the lake level in Serling Co during the Bolling/Allerod and Early Holocene. From 7.8 to 1.8 cal kyr BP, Serling Co maintained a relatively stable lake level under a moderate monsoon intensity and reduced solar radiation. After 1.8 cal kyr BP, Serling Co shrank rapidly under a series of chain reactions caused by the weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. We emphasize the importance of long-term precipitation-evaporation balance on lake level variation, particularly for some large lakes in arid and semi-arid regions, and that climate events affect the lake level by breaking this balance. Our study provides the first quantitative record of lake-level changes in central Tibet during the Late Quaternary and clarifies the role and mechanism of climate change in the process of hydrological evolution in this region, which may serve as a general reference for the study of hydrological evolution in the transition region between the ISM and the westerlies. |
