Intensification of human-forced climate change began from about 1970 onwards with steepening increases in greenhouse gases, ocean acidification, global temperature and sea level, along with ice loss. The resulting distinction between relatively stable Holocene climatic conditions and those of the proposed Anthropocene epoch is substantial, with many aspects irreversible. The still-rising trajectory of greenhouse gas emissions is leading to yet greater and more permanent divergence of the Anthropocene from the Holocene Earth System. We focus here on the effects of the ensuing climate transformation and its impact on the likely duration of this novel state of the Earth System.</div><div>Given the magnitude and rapid rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), its long lifetime in the atmosphere, and the present disequilibrium in Earth's energy budget (expressed as the Earth's Energy Imbalance, or EEI), both temperatures and sea level must continue to rise – even with carbon emissions lowered to net zero (where anthropogenic CO<sub>2</sub> emissions = anthropogenic CO<sub>2</sub> removals) – until the energy budget balance is eventually restored. Even if net zero were achieved immediately, elevated global temperatures would persist for at least several tens of millennia, with expected levels of warmth by the end of this century not seen since the early Late Pliocene. Interglacial conditions are likely to persist for at least 50,000 years under already-accumulated CO<sub>2</sub> emissions and Earth's low eccentricity orbit. Continued increases in greenhouse gas emissions are likely to extend that persistence to around 500,000 years, suppressing the pronounced expression of Milankovitch cyclicity typical of the later Pleistocene Epoch. This major perturbation alone is sufficient to justify the Anthropocene as terminating the Holocene Epoch. The wider and mostly irreversible effects of climate change, not least in amplifying reconfiguration of the biosphere, emphasize the scale of this departure from Holocene conditions, justifying the establishment of a new epoch.</div><div>Given such perspectives, the Anthropocene epoch represents what will become a lasting and substantial change in the Earth System.

Dust transport from Mongolia to China is a major cause of dust weather in northern China.

Based on observational data, we analyzed the variation in cross-border dust storms between China and Mongolia during 1987–2022. The results indicate that, on average, approximately seven cross-border dust storm events occur annually between China and Mongolia, predominantly during the spring. The frequency of cross-border dust storms from Mongolia to China significantly increased from 2.2 events in P1 (1987–1999) to 7.5 events in P2 (2000−2022). Long-term trends suggest that rising dust emissions in east-central Mongolia largely contributed to this increase. The increase in cross-border dust storms from Mongolia to China in the spring was driven by more frequent cyclones in eastern Mongolia and Northeast China during P2. This is evidenced by a negative height anomaly and increased vorticity at 850 hPa over Northeast China. The cyclones were linked to the northward shift of the East Asian Polar Front Jet Stream (EAPJ) at 300 hPa between 50<strong>°</strong>N and 60<strong>°</strong>N. Additionally, surface conditions such as higher temperatures and decreased vegetation in Mongolia contributed to the increased frequency of cross-border dust storms from P1 to P2.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55089,"journal":{"name":"Global and Planetary Change","volume":"242 ","pages":"Article 104578"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142168003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the cause of this marine anoxia is debated, particularly regarding the influence of the Emeishan large igneous province (ELIP). To investigate the contribution of the ELIP to marine anoxia and the possible causal mechanisms, we undertook a conodont biostratigraphic and geochemical study of the middle Permian Maokou Formation in a platform-to-trough transect in the Upper Yangtze region, South China. Our results show that the depositional facies of the Maokou Formation changed from a carbonate ramp to an intra-platform trough within the <em>Jinogondolella</em> (<em>J.</em>) <em>altudaensis</em> zone in the northwestern Yangtze region, which can be attributed to the initial activity of the ELIP. Mantle-derived Sr inputs in the initial and main stages of the ELIP led to two decreases in <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr during the Capitanian, in the <em>J. shannoni</em>–<em>J. altudaensis</em> and <em>J. prexuanhanensis</em>–<em>J. xuanhanensis</em> zones. The elevated <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr values during the late Capitanian may have been due to enhanced continental weathering caused by rapid climate warming in response to subaerial eruptions of the ELIP. The deep-water anoxia–euxinia expanded during the middle Capitanian, as indicated by increased Mo<sub>EF</sub>/U<sub>EF</sub> and V/(V + Ni) values, along with the disappearance of burrows and appearance of small pyrite framboids in the <em>J. altudaensis</em> zone in the Cheng 20 well. However, shallow-water anoxia occurred during the late Capitanian (i.e., <em>J. prexuanhanensis</em>–<em>J. xuanhanensis</em> zone), as evidenced by positive Ce anomalies and losses of aerobic benthic species in the Erya section. Importantly, marine anoxia and negative δ<sup>13</sup>C<sub>carb</sub> excursions occurred synchronously, but earlier in deep water than in shallow water, potentially indicating an expansion of the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ). The deep-water anoxia corresponded to a decrease in <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr ratios and the appearance of an intra-platform trough in the <em>J. altudaensis</em> zone, whereas the shallow-water anoxia in the late Capitanian coincided with elevated <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr ratios.

In this study, the TCs that affected the ECCO from 1949 to 2022 are classified into three typical types of tracks using the k-means clustering method, mass moments, and track interpolation based on TC location, shape, and intensity information. Type 1 is a northwestward track, Type 2 is a northwest to northeast-turning track, and Type 3 is a northwest to northeast-turning offshore track. Type 1 tracks mainly make landfall in southern China, while Type 2 predominantly makes landfall in eastern China. Moreover, the proportion of Type 1 decreases while their landfall percentage increases over time, and the proportion of Type 2 tracks is increasing. The probability of TC effects on the eastern and northern parts of the ECCO is increasing, and the boundary where the TC center reaches after landfall is shifting landward. During the period from 1994 to 2022, there has been a significant migration in TC tracks, with the mean centroid of the TCs affecting the ECCO shifting westward by 0.66° in longitude and northward by 1.26° in latitude, which means the magnitude of the poleward shift is about twice that of the landward shift. This migration appears to have been pre-conditioned by a combined influence of a weakening westward steering flow, reduced vertical wind shear, and warmer sea surface temperature Our findings provide valuable insights into the longitudinal and latitudinal migration of TC tracks and have important implications for disaster prevention, mitigation planning, and the adjustment of crucial coastal protection zones in the ECCO and similar regions around the globe.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55089,"journal":{"name":"Global and Planetary Change","volume":"242 ","pages":"Article 104566"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142168002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
