Abstract

The regional loess stratigraphy in the Vojvodina region, in the southeastern Carpathian Basin, has often been successfully correlated to the global palaeoclimate. This is a quasi-continuous sedimentary record that provides detailed environmental reconstruction during the last four glacial/interglacial cycles. In this study, we present a standardized loess stratigraphy and illustrate how it correlates with the marine oxygen isotope and Chinese loess stratigraphical records. We argue that the loess stratigraphy in Vojvodina region is an important link in the integration of European terrestrial stratigraphical schemes and the deep-sea stratigraphical model. We highlight how the loess record can better illustrate terrestrial environmental change through multiple glacial cycles than other records, such as glacial records. The investigated loess record enables direct links to be made between the loess sediments and their glacial sources. This reveals evidence of glaciations during every glacial cycle of the Saalian Stage complex, equivalent to Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 10, 8 and 6. Therefore, Serbian loess has the potential to provide a direct link between terrestrial glaciations and wider records of global climate change, which is an enigma for many other continental records. These loess records display a strong relationship with the intensity of European glaciations during different glacial cycles. Loess sedimentation rates are highest in the most intensive European glaciation of the Saalian complex (MIS 6) and much lower during the weaker ‘missing’ glaciations equivalent to MIS 8 and 10. A key observation from the Vojvodina loess is the gradual increase in interglacial aridity through the late Middle Pleistocene. The explanation for the progressively increasing aridity in the investigated region at this time is still unclear. However, this trend is consistent with the idea of the Saalian complex as representing a 400 ka mega glacial cycle modulated by shorter classic 100 ka glacial cycles.

塞尔维亚北部伏伊伏丁那地区黄土地层与萨利阿冰期和里西亚冰期的关系--综述
喀尔巴阡山盆地东南部伏伊伏丁那地区的黄土地层经常被成功地与全球古气候相关联。这是一个准连续的沉积记录,提供了过去四个冰川/间冰期周期的详细环境重建。在本研究中,我们介绍了标准化的黄土地层,并说明了它与海洋氧同位素和中国黄土地层记录的相关性。我们认为伏伊伏丁那地区的黄土地层学是欧洲陆地地层学方案与深海地层学模型相结合的重要环节。我们强调了黄土记录如何比冰川记录等其他记录更好地说明多个冰川周期的陆地环境变化。通过调查黄土记录,可以将黄土沉积物与其冰川来源直接联系起来。这揭示了萨利亚阶段复合体每个冰川周期(相当于海洋同位素阶段(MIS)10、8 和 6)期间的冰川证据。因此,塞尔维亚黄土有可能提供陆地冰川与更广泛的全球气候变化记录之间的直接联系,而这正是许多其他大陆记录所无法解释的。这些黄土记录与欧洲不同冰川周期的冰川强度有着密切的关系。黄土沉积速率在欧洲冰川强度最大的萨利亚复合时期(MIS 6)最高,而在相当于 MIS 8 和 10 的较弱 "缺失 "冰川时期则低得多。伏伊伏丁那黄土的一个重要观察结果是,在中更新世晚期,冰期间的干旱程度逐渐增加。调查地区在这一时期干旱程度逐渐增加的原因尚不清楚。不过,这一趋势与萨阿连复合体代表 400 ka 超大冰川周期(由较短的 100 ka 经典冰川周期调节)的观点是一致的。

期刊介绍: Boreas has been published since 1972. Articles of wide international interest from all branches of Quaternary research are published. Biological as well as non-biological aspects of the Quaternary environment, in both glaciated and non-glaciated areas, are dealt with: Climate, shore displacement, glacial features, landforms, sediments, organisms and their habitat, and stratigraphical and chronological relationships. Anticipated international interest, at least within a continent or a considerable part of it, is a main criterion for the acceptance of papers. Besides articles, short items like discussion contributions and book reviews are published.
