用花粉记录探索古植被——答“关于华南地区末次冰盛期植被类型的讨论”

FROM POLLEN RECORD TO PALEOVEGETATION:REPLY TO "A DISCUSSION ON THE VEGETATION TYPES DURING LGM TIME IN SOUTH CHINA

正确认识花粉源区、花粉传播及其动力 ,是用花粉重建古植被的基础。对深海花粉来说 ,这个问题尤为重要。文章回答了刘金陵等对我们南海的工作的质疑 ,同时阐述了我们用深海花粉再造南海北部大陆架及沿海地区末次冰盛期古植被的逐步深入的过程。直至今日 ,我们仍在不断探索 。

Reconstruction of paleovegetation should be based on an adequate knowledge of pollen source area, pollen dispersal and its dynamics. It is of particular importance for interpretation of deep sea pollen records. The present paper is a reply to the comments of Liu and Wang on our work in the South China Sea. Here we explain the process of gradual development of our reconstruction of paleo vegetation on the emerged continental shelf and coastal areas of the northern South China Sea at the Last Glacial Maximum. Up to now, the process is continuing, and our efforts are still being made towards the real vegetation at the glacial maximum.
