Stalagmite Inferred High Resolution Climatic Changes through Pleistocene-Holocene Transition in Northwest Indian Himalaya

Abstract: Investigated for d 18 O and d 13 C isotopes, mineralogy and growth rate, a 20 cm long and 230Th-dated calcite stalagmite from Kalakot (Jammu and Kashmir Himalaya), has recorded high resolution precipitation variability during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition. At present, the study area is influenced by both the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) and Westerlies. The StalAge model indicates that the stalagmite grew between 16.3 ka to 9.5 ka BP under the ideal isotopic equilibrium conditions as revealed by the Hendy … Show more

“…Nearly all stadials in the 240 ka Bittoo cave record [13] are characterised by more positive δ 18 O values compared to interstadials, consistent with the modeling results given by Pausata et al [102]. Unlike the LIA, this pattern of more positive δ 18 O is replicated by other shorter records from north and northeast India [15][16][17]44] (Figure 3). The Bittoo and Mawmluh cave records suggest that Heinrich stadials are responsible for higher amplitude changes in the ISM than the YD stadial in north and northeast India ( Figure 5).…”

“…Records from peninsular Valmiki cave covers the later phase of Heinrich event 1 [50] and the last deglaciation [49]. Bittoo [13], Kalakot [44] and Timta [15] caves from north India and Mawmluh [16,17,46] cave from northeast India cover the Bølling-Allerød (BA) and Younger Dryas (YD) periods. Sahiya [10,12] cave from north India, Mawmluh [45] and Umsynrang [61] caves from northeast India and Kotumsar [57] cave from peninsular India encompass significant periods of the Holocene.…”
