Evident variation of Ca2+ concentration has been found in the Guliya ice core since the Last Intergla-ciation with two relatively strong increase periods and two weak increase periods. These variations are generally related to climatic changes: high Ca2+ concentration periods coincide with cold periods and low Ca2+ concentration periods coin-cide with warm periods. However, Ca2+ concentration does not always decrease (increase) with climate warming (cool-ing). The magnitude and phase of Ca2+ concentration does not always match temperature either.
