    • "Wushan loess", regarded as the southern boundary of Chinese Loess, is distributed in the Three Gorges area in the Yangtze River, which contains rich paleoclimatic information attracting attentions of many scholars in paleoclimate. In order to further reveal its causes and better understand the paleoclimatic significance contained in Wushan loess, the glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) extracted from Wushan loess section were investigated. Comparing the mean annual air temperature (MAAT) reconstructed based on branched GDGTs (bGDGTs) with frequency-dependent magnetic susceptibility and North Atlantic sediments, it is found that the three curves are analogous in climate evolution patterns. These similarities show that climatic changes in Wushan region respond to global climatic changes. The BIT values range from 0.5-1.0 and most BIT (bGDGTs vs. crenarchaeol) values are close to 1. The low BIT values suggest that it was very dry at 36.2 ka.BP, 30.2 ka.BP and 23.5 ka.BP. Based on MAAT and BIT values, it is found that it was relatively cold when it was very dry. It is proposed that the three periods correspond to H4, H3, H2 climate events, respectively.
