Numerous studies have investigated sediments from the northern South China Sea; however, research on the deep-sea basin southwest of this region remains limited. In this study, we analyze the major and trace elements of sediments collected from the eastern ridge of the Xisha Islands to identify their provenance and examine their responses to climate change over the past 140 kyr. The results indicate that sediments primarily originated from southwestern Taiwan and the Pearl River, with their relative contributions modulated by sea-level fluctuations on glacial-interglacial timescales. During glacial periods, Taiwan Island and the Pearl River contributed approximately 42 % and 58 %, respectively, to the total terrigenous input. During interglacial and intermediate climate periods, their contributions were approximately 52 % and 47 %, respectively. Our findings suggest that the East Asian summer monsoon strongly influenced the chemical weathering of surrounding source regions, although this effect is primarily evident in sediments deposited when the sea level was above −50 m. In contrast, the enhanced weathering intensity observed during glacial periods is attributed to secondary weathering processes at sea levels below −50 m. This study highlights the interplay between sea-level fluctuations, climate change, and chemical weathering processes, offering new insights into the influence of climate change on deep-sea sedimentation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55089,"journal":{"name":"Global and Planetary Change","volume":"254 ","pages":"Article 105042"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144907993","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}

Although such regional “scale-folds” are often observed, a quantitative analysis of this deformation type is still needed. One place where outcrop-scale structures associated with the formation of regional scale-folds are well-observed is the Marginal Folds unit of the East Carpathians in Europe. Contrasting rheological alternances driving the formation of scale-folds are created by deep-water turbidites, pelagic sediments and more shallow-water deposits. We have combined new field structural observations with existing depth constraints from wells and seismic data to define the deformation history and analyse its relationship with the rheological stratification. Deformation starts with the formation of detachment folds and continues with the formation of regional asymmetric folds by gradual thinning along their flanks and thickening in hinges, accommodated by omission and duplication shears, as well as hinge-collapse structures. As shortening continues and deformation gradually exaggerates the regional scale folds, it undergoes reverse faulting that gradually steepens and truncate the overturned foreland flanks of folds in a forward-breaking sequence. This deformation is followed by out-of-sequence overthrusting and formation of hinterland-dipping duplexes and backthrusting. The result is a dominant sub-vertical position of the observed strata and closely spaced reverse faults that formed gradually during the intense folding. These findings demonstrate a new kinematic and structural genetic type of deformation that can be applied elsewhere for structural or applied studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55089,"journal":{"name":"Global and Planetary Change","volume":"254 ","pages":"Article 105033"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144897857","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}

We looked at common fire proxies – macrocharcoal, microcharcoal, microcharcoal/pollen (C/P) ratio and the abundance and distribution of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). Macrocharcoal counts per gram of dry sample were low (mean ∼5), while the C/P ratio was ∼1.

Analysis of wind speed and direction and HYbrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model trajectories show that some of the smoke plume from the smaller burnt area passed through our sampling locations and left behind modest traces of the fire.

The most significant climate extremes were more closely associated with interannual temperature variations or particularly severe, isolated cold spells than with prolonged cold spells lasting many years. During this pre-industrial phase of climate instability, many rebellions broke out, one of the most famous being the French Revolution of 1789. A key question, however, relates to the precise and often intricate role of climate in precipitating these widespread uprisings and rebellions that profoundly reshaped human institutions, particularly in the European context. Using data for solar activity, temperature, precipitation, volcanic forcing and the evolution of grain prices, we compared and contrasted the occurrence of rebellions and revolutions across a wide geographical area comprising Europe-Russia-Ottoman Empire with LIA climate and hazards. We find that climate change primarily affected people's livelihoods by reducing harvests, lowering food-resource availability and sharply increasing cereal prices. Climate therefore played a major role in heightening population vulnerability by exacerbating one of the greatest scourges: malnutrition. For the populace, this fuelled social anger towards political authorities for failing to mitigate the impact of climate change. This study primarily reveals that environmental causes did not generate social crises during the LIA but rather triggered a cascade of environmental and human events that interacted, ultimately leading to highly conflictual situations. The LIA serves as a warning to modern political systems, highlighting the necessity to anticipate the consequences of current climate change to mitigate its impact on societies and prevent social unrest and conflict.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55089,"journal":{"name":"Global and Planetary Change","volume":"254 ","pages":"Article 105038"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144892143","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}

In this study, we integrate zircon U<img>Pb geochronology, whole-rock and mineral chemistry and Li isotopic compositions of pegmatites and associated granitoids from the West Kunlun Orogenic Belt (WKOB) in northern Tibetan Plateau, to investigate these issues. Zircon U<img>Pb dating yields weighted mean ages of 223 Ma for the pegmatites and 213–222 Ma for the adjacent granitoids.

The absence of coherent fractionation trends between pegmatites and granitoids (e.g., Rb, Cs), along with a lack of mineralogical evidence for extreme magmatic differentiation, argues against a fractionated granite origin. Instead, Li isotope models of partial melting, thermodynamically-defined phase equilibria and associated elemental calculations all demonstrate that the West Kunlun Li-rich pegmatites were likely generated by melting of Li-rich claystone under amphibolite facies conditions, whereas the Li-poor pegmatites originated from typical metasedimentary sources. We propose that the involvement of Li-rich claystone into the middle to lower crust during collisional orogenesis was a key control on the formation of Li-rich pegmatites in the WKOB.

These plots do not show the influence of photodegradation, which can hinder the proper interpretation of the origin of PAHs. Differences of up to three weeks in how PAHs resist photodegradation can change their distribution, leading to the coexistence of typically pyrogenic and non-pyrogenic indications.
