摘要

Stalagmite Orum-1 from a cave near Orumana in northwestern Namibia provides a multi-proxy record of regional drying with increasing global-scale warmth over the last 47 kyr, in a region with few long well-dated location specific paleoclimate records. Data from Stalagmite Orum-1 include carbon and oxygen stable isotope ratios, proportions of aragonite and calcite, pronouncedly differing petrographic fabrics, positions of layer-bounding surfaces, variation in layer-specific width, and changes in layer thickness, all of which combine to support change from wetter to drier conditions. Combined with fourteen U-Th ages, they suggest that climate was wetter in northwestern Namibia during globally cold MIS 3 than it is today, and with more grass than is present today. The climate at Orumana became drier during the deglacial transition after the Last Glacial Maximum, but carbon isotope data indicate that C-4 grasses persisted. In the Holocene, even greater aridity led to a reduction in grass cover and to the present C-3-dominated vegetation. Hiatuses in Stalagmite Orum-1 suggest even drier conditions during the Bolling-Allerod and during the early Holocene thermal maximum.
