西格陵兰全新世古环境研究进展

PROGRESS ON THE PALEOENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES IN WEST GREENLAND

西格陵兰地区由于其特殊的地理位置(北极地区-北大西洋地区),使之在全球变化研究中占有重要地位。回顾了近年来西格陵兰地区陆地、海洋全新世古环境研究的现状,并探讨了该地区不同全新世气候记录之间的差异及其成因。最后,根据当前全新世古气候研究的重点和热点,探讨了西格陵兰全新世古环境研究的不足,并展望了其动向。

Being located in Arctic and North Atlantic region, West Greenland is sensitive to global climate changes. Thus, paleoenvironmental studies here are of vital importance. The paper firstly presents an outline on terrestrial and marine Holocene paleoenvironmental studies in West Greenland in recent years. In addition, the differences in paleoenvironmental records based on various proxies are presented and the reasons are discussed. Several future research focuses are given at the end of the paper.
