英文摘要Evaluating how future climate changes may impact C-3/C-4 biomass in East Asia depends largely on the understanding of the relationship between past C-3/C-4 variations and Asian monsoon circulation. The glacial-interglacial variations in C-3/C-4 biomass have been readily ascribed to the summer monsoon. However, the internal processes governing the link of C-3/C-4 vegetation to the Asian monsoon have not been clearly described. Here we present isotopic results of pedogenic carbonate from northern China for the Holocene, the last and penultimate interglacial periods. Comparison of the observed and predicted delta O-18 values of modern soil carbonate from gravelly soils suggests that pedogenic carbonate forms mainly in warm, rainy season. Carbonate nodules from the Chinese loess demonstrate a distinct negative delta O-18-delta C-13 relationship and a wider scatter of isotopic values in the southern Loess Plateau than in the northern part. By combining rainfall, delta O-18 of precipitation and the peak of C-3 and C-4 plant metabolism, we develop a conceptual model to explain the isotopic signatures of the carbonate nodules. Our model shows that a narrowly-focused season of monsoon precipitation at a specific site produces low delta O-18 values of soil water and simultaneously favors C-4 over C-3 plants. Our model further suggests that the scattered isotopic values of soil carbonate reflect a strong summer monsoon while the focused values indicate a weak summer monsoon. delta C-13 values of soil carbonate indicate a striking pattern of northward-increasing C-4 vegetation for the last interglacial, while a flat spatial pattern is seen for the penultimate interglacial and the Holocene. It is inferred that the summer monsoon was stronger during the last interglacial than during the penultimate interglacial and the Holocene, leading to a northward displacement of C-3 forest ecosystems into the southern Loess Plateau. In addition, an in-phase relationship between intra-nodule delta C-13 and delta O-18 values suggests a strong and possibly rapid response of C-3/C-4 biomass to the seasonality of Asian monsoon precipitation. In this context, if the last interglacial period (MIS 5) is taken as an analog for the projected near future, then C-3 plants may be favored in the south while C-4 plants may be efficient in the north.
