    • The glycerol dialkyl glycerol ether (GDGTs) may be subjected to degradation during the sample storage, which may have an effect on the application of GDGTs. Thus, it is important to understand the resistance of GDGTs compounds to degradation for the accurate application of GDGT derived proxies. In this study, the extractions (GDGTs) of stalagmite sample from the year of 2012 was reanalyzed in 2017. It is found that the absolute concentration of GDGTs has decreased and the relative content of each component has changed significantly. The change of the concentration of bacterial brGDGT is smaller than that of the archaeal isoGDGTs, which corresponds to the decreased Ri/b value and increased BIT values. Therefore, compared to the isoGDGTs, the brGDGTs are more stable during the processes of degradation. Smaller changes of the concentration of archaeal isoGDGTs of less-cyclic-moieties and increasing CBT values indicate that GDGTs with fewer rings tend to be more stable during the degradation processes. The isoGDGTs based TEX86 values also decrease significantly. The increasing of the brGDGTs based MBT values show that GDGTs with more cyclopentyl moieties are more easily to be degraded.
