CLIMATIC CHANGE DURING THE LONGSHAN PERIOD(5.0~4.0 kaBP)
-
摘要: 龙山时代(5.0~4.0 kaBP)是全新世气候演化的一个重要阶段,也是中国古代社会演进的重要时期,然而有关这一时期的气候变化情况仍不太清楚;传统观点将整个龙山时代看作是一显著暖期,但近年来高分辨率的古气候纪录对这种认识提出了挑战。该文主要基于历史文献、考古证据以及近几十年来高分辨率的自然气候记录,运用IGBP强调古气候重建需要集成的方法,恢复了龙山时代气候变化;结果表明:龙山时代气候并非一直温暖,而是经历了龙山早期暖期(5.0~4.5 kaBP)、龙山中晚期冷期(4.5~4.0 kaBP)以及龙山末期降温事件(4.2~4.0 kaBP)等3个气候阶段和气候事件;将其与世界其他地区古气候记录对比显示,这些特征气候阶段和气候事件影响范围较广,具有北半球性分布的特征。

Abstract: The Longshan period(5.0~4.0 kaBP)is a key period for generation and development of the Chinese civilization. However, the climatic background of this period remains in dilemma. In this paper, based on historical documents, archaeological evidence, and high-resolution natural records reported during the past few decades, the climatic change during Longshan epoch was reconstructed following synthesis method recommended by IGBP. Our results indicate that the Longshang Epoch was not a uniform warm period as traditional researches suggested. It could be further divided into the early-middle Longshan Warm Period(5.0~4.5 kaBP), middle-late Longshan Cold Period(4.5~4.0 kaBP),and a pronounced cooling event by the end of the Longshan period(4.2~4.0 kaBP). The reconstructed climatic changes of the Longshan period are well correlated with the climatic records in the other parts of the world, indicating that it is at least a semi-sphere phenomenon. -
