英文摘要 | Background and Aims Annually resolved biological climate proxies beyond the altitudinal and latitudinal distribution limit of trees are rare. In such regions, several studies have demonstrated that annual growth rings of dwarf shrubs are suitable proxies for palaeoclimatic investigations. In High Asia, the pioneer work of Liang et al. (Liang E, Lu X, Ren P, Li X, Zhu L, Eckstein D, 2012. Annual increments of juniper dwarf shrubs above the tree line on the central Tibetan Plateau: a useful climatic proxy. Annals of Botany 109: 721-728) confirmed the suitability of shrub growth-ring chronologies for palaeoclimatic research. This study presents the first sensitivity study of an annually resolved delta O-18 time series inferred from Wilson juniper (Juniperus pingii var. wilsonii) from the northern shoreline of lake Nam Co (Tibetan Plateau). Methods Based on five individual dwarf shrub discs, a statistically reliable delta O-18 chronology covering the period 1957-2009 was achieved (expressed population signal = 0.80). Spearman's correlation analysis between the delta O-18 chronology and climate variables from different sources was applied. In a first step, the suitability of various climate data was evaluated. Key Results Examinations of climate-proxy relationships revealed significant negative correlations between the delta O-18 shrub chronology and summer season moisture variability of the previous and current year. In particular, relative humidity of the previous and current vegetation period significantly determined the proxy variability (rho = -0.48, P < 0.01). Furthermore, the delta O-18 variability of the developed shrub chronology significantly coincided with a nearby tree-ring delta O-18 chronology of the same genus (r = 0.62, P < 0.01). Conclusions The delta O-18 shrub chronology reliably recorded humidity variations in the Nam Co region. The chronology was significantly correlated with a nearby moisture-sensitive tree-ring delta O-18 chronology, indicating a common climate signal in the two chronologies. This climate signal was likely determined by moisture variations of the Asian summer monsoon. Local climate effects were superimposed on the supra-regional climate signature of the monsoon circulation. Opposing delta O-18 values between the two chronologies were interpreted as plant-physiological differences during isotopic fractionation processes. |
