摘　　要：加利福尼亚洋流系统(CCS)是东北太平洋一股十分重要的边界流,在全球海气交换过程中具有重要地位。CCS的海洋大气变化尤其是涌升流的强弱变化,在年代和多年代时间尺度上的变化主要受太平洋年代际震荡(PDO,20~30年周期)的控制。为了解CCS北区早更新世以来涌升流强弱变化规律及其主要控制机理,本文分析了国际大洋钻探1020B(CCS北区南部41°N)和1245B(北部44°N)钻孔钙质超微化石和硅藻化石等记录。结果显示,多半时间段的记录具有冰期和间冰期旋回的变化;其中超微化石的高含量见于间冰期,而硅藻高含量对应于冰期。这两类化石在沉积物中的含量变化显示出时间尺度长约0.5 Ma的3个阶段:早更新世(1.5~1.1 Ma)两个孔以超微化石含量高为特征;中更新世(1.1~0.65 Ma)两孔中的超微化石和硅藻化石含量相对较高,但它们在两个孔的变化趋势不同;晚更新世(0.65 Ma)以来,南部1020B孔超微化石含量高且出现频率高于硅藻化石,而北部1245B孔以硅藻化石含量较高且持久出现为特征。本文提出了该区涌升流受长周期“似太平洋年代际振荡模式”和“似北太平洋环流振荡模式”控制的假设。早更新世(1.5~1.1 Ma)主要受到持续的似PDO正位相(似+PDO,表层海水温暖)的控制,涌升流弱,海水中碳酸盐离子丰富,利于颗石藻骨骼钙化形成颗石和颗石产量高,沉积物中超微化石含量高。中更新世过渡期(MPT,1.1~0.65 Ma)受到似PDO负位相(似-PDO,海水表层水体冷、涌升流强、海水pH值低,硅藻生产力高,沉积物中硅藻化石含量高)与似+PDO的交替影响。晚更新世(0.65 Ma)以来,南部1020站位受到似-PDO/似-NPGO?的交替控制,但似-NPGO?的强度和出现频率均大于似-PDO,因此超微化石含量和出现时期比硅藻多;北部1245站位则仅受似-PDO的持续性控制,涌升流较强且持续时间长、沉积物中硅藻化石几乎持续出现且含量较高。MThe California Current System(CCS)is a very important boundary current in the Northeast Pacific Ocean and it plays an important role in the global air-ocean interactions.On the interannual and decadal timescales,the ocean-climate change and activity of upwelling in the CCS are principally affected by the Pacific Decadal Oscillation(PDO,with variable periods ranging from 20 to 30 a).To understand the variation of upwelling activity in the northern region of the CCS since the Early Pleistocene and its main control mechanism,we analyzed the data of calcareous nannofossils(fossils of coccolithophores)and diatom fossils from the International Ocean Drilling Program Holes 1020B(southern site,at 41°N)and 1245B(northern site,at 44°N).Our results suggested that abundance variations in these two fossil groups were correlated with most glacial-interglacial cycles,by which high abundances of diatom fossils and nannofosills were associated with glacial and interglacial stages,respectively.Three ca.0.5 Ma long-term stages of fossil abundance variations were recognized:the Early Pleistocene Stage(1.51.1 Ma)featured by abundant nannofossils in both holes,the Middle Pleistocene Stage(1.10.65 Ma)by relatively abundant diatoms and nannofossils with opposite variation trends in the two holes,and the Late Pleistocene Stage(since 0.65 Ma)by relatively abundant diatoms with very low and sporadic nannofossils in Hole 1245B and contrarily,abundant nannofossils with less abundant diatoms in Hole 1020B.We proposed a mode of long-term dominance of“Pacific Decadal Oscillation(PDO-like)”in combination with“North Pacific Gyre Oscillation(NPGO-like)”mode to explain the possible mechanisms for these records.The northern region of the CCS had been affected by a long-term dominance of+PDO-like phase that led to decreased upwelling during the Early Pleistocene,and by an altering of-PDO(intensified upwelling)and+PDO phases over the Middle Pleistocene Transition period(MPT).And for the last 0.65 Ma,the region was affected by an altering of
