中间 -- 从 Xuancheng (AnhuiProvince ) 和 Bose (Guangxi ) 的更新世 vermiculated 红土壤(VRS ) 通过土壤 micromor-phological 被学习,矿物学、化学的途径。结果显示 VRS 的一个多色的性质,经历了多重形成土壤的舞台。三个主要舞台被认出了,对不同气候政体可归因。他们包括红的同类的矩阵的形成土壤(舞台 1 ) ,在土壤侧面(舞台 2 ) 以内的白静脉的发展,和形成组织上并列了特征(舞台 3 ) 。白静脉,从铁弄空导致红土壤的同类的矩阵的扎根的团,没有重要季节的干燥的要求的丰富的降雨。地理上,广泛地,在中国的长江的传播 VRS 南方暗示在更新世中极端东方亚洲夏天季风。这气候极端可能仔细在 NADW 的力量与变化被连接。
The mid-Pleistocene vermiculated red soils (MRS) from Xuancheng (Anhui Province) and Bose (Guangxi) are studied through soil micromorphological, mineralogical and chemical approaches. The results indicate a polygenetic nature of the VRS, having experienced multiple soil-forming stages. Three main stages have been recognized, attributable to distinct climate regimes. They include the formation of the homogeneous matrix of a red soil (stage 1), development of the white veins within the soil profile (stage 2), and formation of juxtaposed textural features (stage 3). The white veins, resulting from iron-depletion in the groundmass of the homogeneous matrix of a red soil, required abundant rainfall without significant seasonal desiccations. The geographically widely spread VRS south of the Yangtze River in China implies a Mid-Pleistocene extreme East Asian summer monsoon. This climate extreme might be closely linked with the changes in the strength of NADW.
