제주도 용천동굴 석순(YC-2)에 기록되어 있는 한반도의 소빙하기

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Carbon isotopic compositions of the YC-2 stalagmite in Yongcheon Cave were analyzed to delineate paleoclimatic variations near Korean peninsula for the past historical period. The YC-2 stalagmite is about 68 ㎜ long and annual growth laminae are distinctively identified. Because the number of growth laminae is at least 242, the stalagmite can be estimated to be at least 241 years old. At about 15 ㎜ from the bottom, one thick brown growth lamina is observed, and this lamina was likely to have been formed when the stalagmite ceased to grow, making the hiatus. High resolution, carbon isotope data indicate past fluctuations of East Asia monsoonal intensity (intimately related to the amount of precipitation). Based on the carbon isotope trend, the stalagmite can be divided into three stages (Stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ). The highest carbon isotopic compositions of Stage Ⅰ (δ¹³C = ?3.3~0.4‰, PDB) indicate that the stalagmite grew during the Little Ice Age when cold and dry climate prevailed with less vegetation. Stage Ⅱ is characterized by a transitional period from cold and dry to warm and wet climate with a increasing trend of carbon isotopic compositions (δ¹³C = ?9.6~?0.6‰) and this period indicates the weakening of the Little Ice Age climate. This decreasing trend also suggests that Little Ice Age was terminated near middle 1870's around Korean peninsula. Relatively low carbon isotopic compositions during Stage Ⅲ (δ¹³C = ?11.0~?8.0‰) indicates that the climate was changed to warm and wet conditions which are similar to the present.
