“…Several sand deposits worldwide were correlated to the cold period in the last millennium based on accurate OSL chronology (e.g. Tamura et al, 2016Tamura et al, , 2011Hu et al, 2013). The mean annual temperature variation in northeastern China constructed by Wang et al (1998) and temperature change in the Liaoning Province presented by Sun and Zhao (2002) indicate that the temperature was steadily increasing between 1880 AD and 1940 AD, indicating that the PJ sand dune accumulated during a warm period after the LIA.…”

Abstract:The timing of the formation of extensively distributed sand dunes in the Bohai coastal area and its forcing factors are poorly understood. In this study, the chronology of a well-preserved sand dune located in Panjin Forest Park (PJ) in the Lower Liao Plain (LLP) is investigated using quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and K-feldspar postinfrared (IR) infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) (pIRIR) dating. For the pIRIR measurements, the combination of preheating at 180°C and pIRIR stimulation at 150°C (pIRIR 150 ) is exploited. The quartz results show that the sand dune accumulated from c. 120 a (1890 AD) to c. 70 a (1940 AD) before present, and the underlying sandy soil sediments deposited from c. 5.0 ka to c. 0.13 ka as marsh sediment after the sea level highstand since the mid-Holocene. From the evidence in historical coastline records, the PJ sand dune is an inland sand dune and not a coastal sand dune. Based on further information of climate and temperature change after the Little Ice Age (LIA) and human activity in northeastern China, we conclude that the PJ sand dune accumulation was very likely impacted by the immigrants and land reclamation at the end of Qing dynasty. The fading corrected IR 50 ages, the apparent and fading corrected pIRIR 150 ages are consistent with quartz ages for two sandy soil samples but overestimate those for six sand samples. The overestimation of the feldspar ages is derived from the residual signal which has not been bleached before burial. The offset obtained from the difference between the quartz OSL and the feldspar pIRIR 150 ages are ~20-160 a (predicted residual dose: ~0.08-0.60 Gy), whereas the measured residual dose after bleaching 4 h in a solar simulator yielded age overestimation of ~10-40 a (~0.05-0.16 Gy). The age discrepancy calculated from the predicted residual was larger than those obtained from the laboratory measured residuals. We conclude that the pIRIR 150 of aeolian sediment is applicable for samples older than ~1000 years where the effect of the residual dose become negligible.

“…At a site in southwest Portugal, these have been dated to 12.6, 5.6, 1.2, 0.4 and 0.3 ka (Costas et al, 2012) and aeolian activity and dunebuilding linked to enhanced phases of dominant westerlies. Tamura et al (2011a) identify the winter monsoon as a primary control on aeolian processes and related phases of increased or declining dune activity in east Asia. They present evidence for major dune activity and development between the 15th and 17th centuries, which they compare with similar periods of dune migration and activity in northwest Europe during the Little Ice Age (e.g.…”

Geomorphology is increasingly engaged with the connections between coastal behaviour and climate variability and change. While impacts of climate change at the coast are often primarily viewed in terms of landform adjustments to accelerated sea-level rise, geomorphologists are also starting to unlock the subtleties of how coastal processes are forced by a broader suite of climate factors. This progress report highlights three main strands of recent geomorphological research in this vein: the search for a broader suite of climatic signatures in recent coastal deposits; empirical analyses of the linkages between climate variables and contemporary shoreline change; and enhancement of our capability to predictively model climate-driven changes in coastal morphology.

“…Chinese historical documents suggest that the winter monsoon in East Asia has fluctuated at decadal-and centennial-scales (Wang and Zhang, 1992). An increase in the winter monsoon strength 400-500 years, corresponding to the beginning of the Little Ice Age (Lamb, 1995), is suggested by frequent aeolian dust fall (Zhang, 1984) and lower winter temperature (Ge et al, 2003) in China, and activation of coastal dunes along the Japan Sea (Tamura et al, 2011). Therefore, it is probable that the downdrift elongation of the Tra Vinh coast beach ridges was enhanced by the strengthened winter monsoon.…”
