准噶尔盆地南缘柏杨河典型风成黄土剖面的岩石磁学与粒度研究结果指示该地区黄土磁性矿物以亚铁磁性矿物为主,主要载磁矿物为粗粒原生强磁性矿物,同时含有少量细粒磁性矿物,磁性矿物含量远低于黄土高原黄土。磁性矿物磁晶粒度以假单畴和多畴(PSD/MD)为主,后期成壤过程对磁性矿物颗粒的改造作用很小。柏杨河黄土磁化率增强机制较为复杂,磁学与粒度的曲线对比表明风动力强度对含磁性矿物较粗颗粒具有分选作用,是导致磁化率变化的重要因素,但二者的低相关性又暗示了风动力强度在解释磁化率增强机制中的局限性。古尔班通古特沙漠在末次间冰期以来的收缩与扩张导致的物源变化可能是影响磁化率变化的又一重要因素。
Rock magnetic parameters and grain sizes were measured and analyzed in a loess sectionin the Southern Junggar Basin. The results show that the content of magnetic mineral of the section ismuch lower than Loess Plateau of China, and the dominant magnetic mineral is ferromagnetic. Nativestrong magnetic mineral is the primary cause of magnetic susceptibility rise. The analysis of grain sizeof magnetic minerals indicates that the property of the loess is dominated by PSD/MD magnetite. Thechange mechanism of magnetic susceptibility of Xinjiang Loess is complex. Comparison of magneticsusceptibility curves and grain size curves show that wind is the important reason leading to magneticsusceptibility changes, but not the only one. The changing of provenance may be the other reasonleading to magnetic susceptibility changes, because the expansion and contraction of GurbantunggutDesert would be occur when the climate changes since the last interglacial period.
