使用氧同位素的古地图学重建表明西藏高原的高度高. 然而,这项研究揭示了大气和地理因素使这些方法无效,
科学领域:
- 古气候学
- 地质学
- 同位素地化学
背景情况:
- 氧同位素古高度测量是重建古地图的一种常见方法.
- 之前的研究表明,西藏高原在公元前 (大约4000万年前) 达到目前的高度.
- 大气和水文变化可以影响降水中的氧同位素比率,可能会偏向古高度测量重建.
研究的目的:
- 评估以太古地理和气候对氧气稳定同位素衍生的古海拔估计的影响.
- 确定稳定同位素古高度测量方法在亚洲的适用性.
- 为了协调有关西藏高原在伊纪时期的高度的数据.
主要方法:
- 使用同位素配备的一般循环模型 (GCM).
- 模拟埃奥森大气和水文条件.
- 模型输出与现有的古风提升代码进行比较.
主要成果:
- 模拟表明,亚洲世时期的对流降雨增加,空气质量混合和广泛的干旱使稳定的同位素古高度计无效.
- 由于这些因素,氧同位素数据可能存在偏差.
- 模型数据比较表明,西藏高原在伊纪时期的海拔低至中等 (<3000米).
结论:
- 稳定同位素古高度测量方法不适用于重建西藏高原的海拔.
- 西藏高原显著升起的时间可能比伊纪晚些.
- 调和氧同位素数据与其他地质和古生物学代理数据,表明较低的欧纪海拔.

Freezing Point Depression and Boiling Point Elevation
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure is equal to ambient atmospheric pressure. Since the vapor pressure of a solution is lowered due to the presence of nonvolatile solutes, it stands to reason that the solution’s boiling point will subsequently be increased. Vapor pressure increases with temperature, and so a solution will require a higher temperature than will pure solvent to achieve any given vapor pressure, including one...
