英文摘要We used positive thermal ionization mass spectrometry (PTIMS) to generate high precision delta B-11 records in Porites corals of the mid-late Holocene from the South China Sea (SCS). The delta B-11 values of the Holocene corals vary significantly, ranging from 22.2 parts per thousand to 25.5 parts per thousand. The paleo-pH records of the SCS, reconstructed from the delta B-11 data, were not stable as previously thought but show a gradual increase from the Holocene thermal optimal and a sharp decrease to modern values. The latter is likely caused by the large amount of anthropogenic CO2 emissions since the Industrial Revolution but variations of atmospheric pCO(2) cannot explain the pH change of the SCS before the Industrial Revolution. We suggest that variations of monsoon intensity during the mid-late Holocene may have driven the sea surface pH increase from the mid to late Holocene. Results of this study indicate that the impact of anthropogenic atmospheric CO2 emissions may have reversed the natural pH trend in the SCS since the mid-Holocene. Such ocean pH records in the current interglacial period can help us better understand the physical and biological controls on ocean pH and possibly predict the long-term impact of climate change on future ocean acidification.
