| Abstract | The CGS1 segment of the Chagelebulu section in the southeast of the Badain Jaran Desert, records sedimentary cycles consisting of alternations between dune sands and overlying paleosol or loess during the Holocene. Based on the analysis of primary chemical elements (78 samples) [SiO$_{2}$, Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$, and Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$ + FeO (TOFE)], we found that the variation of the primary chemical element content shows eleven chemical element cycles, of these, seven cycles are approximately consistent with the sedimentary cycles. This study suggests that the peaks of SiO$_{2}$ contents and the valleys of Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$, TOFE, Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$/SiO$_{2}$, TOFE/SiO$_{2}$, and (TOFE + Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$)/SiO$_{2}$ contents in the dune sands represent the dominant periods of East Asian winter monsoon, the valleys of SiO$_{2}$ contents and the peaks of Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$, TOFE, Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$/SiO$_{2}$, TOFE/SiO$_{2}$, and (TOFE + Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$)/SiO$_{2}$ contents in the paleosol and loess reflect the dominant periods of East Asian summer monsoon. The cold periods C1, C2, C3, C4, C7, C9, C10, and C11 revealed by primary chemical element contents in the CGS1 correspond well to the cold events in the North Atlantic. We attributed the climate fluctuations to the combination impact of oceans and atmosphere triggered by the weakened AMOC. Furthermore, we found more cold periods such as C5, C6, and C8 in the CGS1 than those in the North Atlantic, which were also discovered in some other places of China. They serve as new evidence in China’s deserts to support global climate variations during the Holocene. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
