英文摘要 | A series of Holocene charcoal concentrations (CC) records from a slope sedimentary section in Gonghe Basin, northeast Tibetan Plateau, are analyzed to investigate fire characteristics (e. g., frequency or magnitude) and their linkages with paleoclimate change and ancient human activities. The results reveal that changes in fire indicators are well correlated with paleoclimatic change during the past 10.0 ka BP. This pattern is characterized by lower CC in the warm and humid middle Holocene, and higher total CC in the cold, dry climate of the early and late Holocene. Meanwhile, an event characterized by abnormally high CC values at similar to 3.6 ka BP, distinct from the above trend, indicates an anomalously high fire frequency which cannot easily be explained as the result of a climatic event. Alternatively, this event is noted to correspond closely with the time of rapid human occupation of the high elevation Tibetan Plateau. Many basic domestic and agricultural activities (e. g., slash-and-burn farming, cooking or heating.) have required fire in the hostile environment of the Tibetan Plateau; this is reflected in the higher CC following the spread of human habitation. The analysis of CC might be a useful alternative method for investigating human activities when no direct evidence is available in the Holocene Tibetan Plateau records.
