Abstract:
The eolian-sand section along the Great Wall in Yulin, Shaanxi province, is sensitive to climate and environmental changes. The magnetic susceptibility and particle-size analysis in Dabaodang profile showed that the early Holocene(11 500～10 000 a BP), was a transition during the change in eolian regime and dust source because of the weakened northwesterly monsoon along with the global climatic amelioration; the middle Holocene(10 000～4 500 a BP)was relatively humid, while vegetation coverage increased, aeolian activities weakened, silt and clay compositions were significantly increased, weathering pedogenesis was enhanced, and sandy weak paleosols were developed; the late stage of the middle Holocene(4 500～3 000 a BP)was mild and humid in general, but at 4 200～4 000 a BP an arid climate event occurred, with intensive eolian sand activities; the climate was droughty and fluctuating frequently in recent 3 000 a, while eolian sand was significantly coarser, which showing 5 times desert expansions. Natural factors played an important role in the environmental changes in this area, and human activities greatly strengthened and amplified the changes at the modern times.
