摘要

Dust transported by sandstorms has been an important feedback in climate change in the past, and its environmental effects are predicted to have a great impact on future global climatic change. Investigating the grain-size classes and the standard deviations of the modern sandstorm samples, and the samples in the Shagou section (situated in the eastern Hexi Corridor), lead us to suggest that the sand fraction within the range of 275.4-550 um in this section can be used as a sensitive indicator of severe sandstorms. We selected the size range in the L1 stratum of the Shagou loess section as indicative of temporal changes in sandstorm intensity in the eastern Hexi Corridor and found that during the Last Glacial period, severe sandstorms in the eastern Hexi Corridor occurred with high frequency during these periods: Ⅰ (70-54 ka B.P.), Ⅱ (51-48 ka B.P.), Ⅲ (45-42 ka B.P.), Ⅳ (38-33 ka B.P.), Ⅴ (31-28 ka B.P.) and Ⅵ (26-12 ka B.P.) In general, the frequency and intensity of dust storms in the early (MIS 4) and late (MIS 2) periods were both high but they were reduced in the middle period (MIS 3). The primary factors controlling severe sandstorms are hydrology and wind power, followed by the expansion of the source extent. Reduced precipitation caused the source region of sandstorms to expand; in addition, wind speeds also increased at this time. These factors may have directly contributed to the abundance of severe sandstorms. Based on the grain size from a loess section (the Shagou section) in the eastern Hexi Corridor, we propose an evolutionary sequence of the severe sandstorms during the Last Glacial period. This sequence is consistent with the dust records in the Arctic, the Antarctic and low-latitude (the central equatorial Pacific) areas. Thus globally synchronous periods of high dust activity occurred in the Last Glacial period. The strong winds proposed here provide a potential explanation for the global consistency of dust flux changes during the Last Glacial period.
