Huangqihai,a small enclosed lake in Inner Mongolia of China,lies at the northern boundary of Eastern Asian Summer Monsoon and in the center area of Asian Winter Monsoon,thus its lacustrine sediment sensitively recorded the climate change of the above two monsoon systems.Based on the granular size character of sediment from profile H3 on the northern lacustrine bottomland 13m above the Huangqihai lake surface in 1986,the paper investigates the record of palaeolake water level,sedimentary environment evolution,and winter monsoon change.Together with the 13δ record(Shen et al,2005),the granular size character and sediment stratigraphic evidence of profile H3 suggested that(1)the lake level was at a high stage between 8.0-5.5 ka BP,which indicating that the palaeoclimate that was warm and humid for the summer monsoon was intensified,and the winter monsoon subdued,corresponding to the so-called Holocene Magathermal.However,the climate system made up of the two monsoon circulations far from the stable state for there appeared air mass dust sedimentation and low lake level events in twice during the 7.0-5.5 ka BP for abruptly-reinforced winter monsoon and fluvial effect inferred from the increased proportion of 6.25±0.25 Φ,7.25±0.25 Φ,-0.75±0.25 Φ,and-0.25±0.25 Φ size interval respectively;(2)during 5.1 ka BP~3.6 ka BP,timed to the so-called new-glacier,there appeared more and more air mass dust sedimentation and the lake level gradually decreased,which showed a cooler and drier climate for summer monsoon circulation was weakened and winter monsoon enhanced on the contrary.this kind of condition was persisted in during 3.6 ka BP~2.2 ka BP.
