项目摘要

Knowledge of the past variations in the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) is essential for understanding the monsoon system as a whole and its relationship to other parts of the climate system. Despite existing instrumental data and proxy evidence for variations in the ISM at sub-decadal to millennial timescales, we still have a poor understanding of how monsoon circulation has controlled long-term moisture over the Asian landmass. While marine and stalagmite proxy records have provided a framework of variations in the ISM, they reveal little about the hydrological conditions within the continental monsoon domain, where the human population is foremost. Even so, these records show decadal- to century-scale climate oscillations in the ISM that are concurrent with N. Atlantic ocean circulation changes, significant perturbations in tropical ocean temperatures and ENSO-like behaviour in the western Pacific warm pool, potentially forced by variations in solar output. But, it is unclear whether the monsoon responds to high-latitude teleconnections, or plays a primary role in initiating and/or amplifying abrupt climate changes from the tropics via ENSO-like mechanisms. Consequently, pre-instrumental palaeoclimate records of the ISM are key to understanding the origin of monsoon variability. I will investigate ISM variability over the past 15,000 cal. years through a high-resolution isotopic and trace element study of ostracods from sediments in Lake Peiku Co, southern Tibet. Peiku Co offers one of the best archives of information of past moisture changes as it lies at the edge of ISM rains and is therefore sensitive to changes in monsoon intensity. This palaeoclimatic record will be used to evaluate changes in the behaviour of the ISM and to investigate the relative importance of different forcing factors and wider climatic teleconnections.

了解印度夏季风（ISM）过去的变化对于了解整个季风系统及其与气候系统其他部分的关系至关重要。尽管现有的仪器数据和代理证据的变化在ISM在分十年到千年的时间尺度，我们仍然有一个贫穷的了解季风环流如何控制长期的水分在亚洲大陆。虽然海洋和石笋代理记录提供了一个框架的变化在ISM，他们揭示了很少的水文条件在大陆季风域，在那里的人口是最重要的。即便如此，这些记录显示了ISM中与N。大西洋环流变化、热带海洋温度的重大扰动和西太平洋暖池的类似厄尔尼诺/南方涛动的行为，可能是太阳输出变化造成的。但是，目前还不清楚季风是否响应于高纬度遥相关，或通过ENSO机制在启动和/或放大热带气候突变中发挥主要作用。因此，前仪器古气候记录的ISM是了解季风变化的起源的关键。我将通过对藏南北库错湖沉积物中介形类的高分辨率同位素和微量元素研究，探讨ISM在过去15,000 cal.年的变化。Peiku Co提供了过去湿度变化信息的最佳档案之一，因为它位于ISM降雨的边缘，因此对季风强度的变化很敏感。这一古气候记录将用于评估ISM的行为变化，并调查不同强迫因子和更广泛的气候遥相关的相对重要性。
