Water Provision

An assessment of how future climate change will impact water provision services is important for formulating rational water resources management and development strategies as well as for ecosystem protection. The East Asian monsoon is an important component of the Asian climate and its changes affect the climate in East Asia and seriously affect the provision of water services. In this study, through the coupling of the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) model and Statistical Downscaling Technique Model (SDSM), we evaluated the impact of future climate change on water provisions in a typical East Asian monsoon basin of South China. The results demonstrate the applicability of the InVEST model combined with the SDSM model over the East Asian monsoon river basins. Under representative concentration pathway 4.5 scenario (RCP4.5), the annual average maximum and minimum temperatures would continually increase far into the future (2080–2095). However, the maximum and minimum temperatures slightly decreased under representative concentration pathway 2.6 scenario (RCP2.6) in the far future (2080–2095). The annual average precipitation and reference evapotranspiration experienced slight but steady increasing trends under the RCP2.6 and RCP4.5 scenarios. Based on the InVEST model simulation, annual average water yield would increase by 19.3% (33.5%) far in the future (2080–2095) under RCP2.6 (4.5) scenario. This study provides a valuable reference for studying future climate change impacts on water provisions in East Asian monsoon basins.

<p>The middle Piacenzian period is the closest sustained warm interval and a possible analog to the future climate. It is well known that global ice volume exhibits dominant 41-kyr cyclicities. However, high resolution terrestrial paleoenvironmental records are scare. Here we present a 3.6 kyr terrestrial environmental variation record from Teruel Basin of Spain and compare the results with the East Asian monsoon records. The Spain results show dominant 41-kyr cycles during the early Piacenzian (3.3-3.15 Ma) when eccentricity was at minimum, but the 41-kyr cycles weakens during the late Piacenzian 3.15-2.95 Ma when eccentricity got increased, suggesting direct forcing by insolation. This pattern is different from the monsoonal records from China, which demonstrates persistent 20-kyr cycles during the entire middle Piacenzian. The strong 41-kyr cycles in westerly region during the early Piacenzian may originate from its higher latitude and higher sensitivity to insolation gradient forcing.</p>

Exhumation History

<p>The southeastern Tibetan Plateau experienced significant tectonic uplift, fault activity, climate change and reorgnization of fluvial systems during the late Cenozoic. All these processes were probably accompanied by rapid rock exhumation. Therefore, rock exhumation history in this region could provide a key to reveal the interaction between tectonics, climate and surface processes. Here, we report new apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He dates from a ~1200 m granite vertical profile, located at Shimian county in the Daliang Mountains, southeastern Tibetan Plateau. The age-elevation relationship and thermal history simulation exhibit a two-phase rock exhumation history, one at ~25 Ma (~1 km/Myr) and a second moderate exhumation from ~15 Ma to present (~ 0.2 km/Myr). This two-phase rapid exhumation history is consistent with that of Longmen Shan and Jiulong in the adjacent areas. For the first phase in Oligocene, abundant geological evidence indicates that it was related to the regional uplift caused by the transpressional deformation during India-Asia convergence. However, there are two distinct explanations for the rapid exhumation from ~15 Ma to present: one group suggested this exhumation was related to the rapid river incision caused by regional uplift; By contrast, based on paleo-altimetry data another group proposed the uplift was ceased before the late Miocene in southeastern Tibetan Plateau, and then the enhanced rainfall caused by the East Asian monsoon resulted in rapid exhumation since the Middle Miocene. Our study suggests that the fast exhumation in southeastern Tibetan Plateau since ~15 Ma cannot be attributed solely to the regional uplift or the intensification of Asian monsoon. Combined with the activity history of the Anninghe fault in the study area and the East Asian monsoon evolution history, we suggest that the regional rock exhumation of southeastern Tibetean Plateau since the Middle Miocene could be the result of the combination of tectonic activity and climate change.</p>
