摘要
摘要:通过对青藏高原黄河源区鄂陵湖35cm长的沉积物岩芯(NR-1)中总有机碳含量(TOC)、总氮含量(TN)、碳氮比值(Corg/Ntot)以及有机碳同位素(δ13Corg)和总氮同位素(δ15Ntot)等地球化学指标的分析,并结合青海地区文献资料记载的人口数量变化以及高原湖泊水位记录,对研究区近1500a以来的气候环境变化进行了深入探讨。结果表明:近两百多年以来鄂陵湖沉积物中TOC和TN指标呈现明显上升的趋势,与青海东部地区人口数量变化趋势一致,表明近代人类活动已经对青藏高原最大淡水湖生态系统产生了显著的影响;而沉积物中δ13Corg值变化与青海湖水文环境重建指标具有可比性,说明高原大型淡水湖泊沉积物δ13Corg值可指示湖泊水位波动;此外δ15Ntot值变化趋势与青藏高原东北部已有的古温度记录总体一致,推测鄂陵湖沉积物δ15Ntot值可能响应了湖泊水体营养状态的变化,间接指示了湖泊夏季表层水温的波动。本研究为青藏高原腹地高海拔现代湖泊沉积物中有机碳和总氮含量及其同位素指标的解译提供了全新的思路。

Abstract:On basis of the organic geochemical indexes including total organic carbon(TOC), total nitrogen(TN), carbon nitrogen ratio(Corg/Ntot), organic carbon isotope(δ13Corg) and total nitrogen isotope(δ15Ntot) in the sediment core(NR-1) collected from the Lake Ngoring in the source area of Yellow River(SAYR), northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau(QTP), the climatic and environmental variations during last 1500 years were reconstructed. A gravity core(NR-1) was taken at a water depth of 31.8m in Lake Ngoring at a GPS location of 35°02'10″N, 97°42'24″E in July 2009. The core was 35cm in length and 55 sedimentary samples were obtained. The results show that TOC and TN in the sediments of Lake Ngoring have increased significantly in the past 200~300 years, which is consistent with the population trend in eastern Qinghai Province. Also, the trends of TOC and TN are comparable with the variation of atmospheric CH4 concentration and the change of agricultural production pattern that the former nomadic pastoral lifestyles gradually being transformed into permanent settlements since the early eighteenth century, indicating that the sedimentary organic matter for the last 200~300a in Lake Ngoring mainly respond to the increased human activities in the SAYR. The variation of δ13Corg value in sediments is consistent with the fluctuation of water level, which indicates that the sedimentary δ13Corg values in large freshwater lakes in SAYR might be a reliable proxy to reflect the change of lake water level. In addition, the variation of δ15Ntot accords with the temperature records in the northeastern QTP. So the δ15Ntot value of sediment in Lake Ngoring might respond to the change of nutrient level of lake water and indirectly indicate the fluctuation of lake surface water temperature. This study provides a new idea for the interpretation of organic carbon and total nitrogen contents and their isotopic values in lake sediments collected from the interior region of the QTP.
