Abstract

Abstract

Core sediment samples collected from the mud area of Bohai Sea（BS) were analyzed for the concentration and depositional flux of black carbon（BC). By combining with ²¹⁰Pb radionuclide dating,the relationship between centennial scale variation of BC depositional flux and human activities adjacent to the BS was discussed. The results showed that:（1) the concentration and flux of BC ranged from 0.24 to 0.49 mg/g and from 0.026 to 0.053 mg/(cm²·a),with mean values of（0.32±0.07) mg/g and（0.040±0.008) mg/(cm²·a),respectively. BC concentration was equivalent to those in other China seas（like the East China Sea),but significantly lower than the heavily polluted areas,such as America bays and Swedish continental shelf;（2) BC flux peaked around 1950s to mid-1970s and early 1990s to late 1990s,which each could be attributed to the sharply increased biomass burning and fossil fuels（coal and oil) combustion. However,the lower value and the decreasing trend of BC flux occurred in the period of late 1970s to late 1980s and the initial period of the 21st century could be explained by the diversion of the Huanghe River and the utilization of clean technology for energy consumption as well as pollution control strategies,respectively;（3) By comparing the present results and other studies in various seas and lakes around the world,it was confirmed that BC sedimentary record in core sediment could be used as a good geochemical indicator to reveal the influence history of anthropogenic activities on regional ecological environment.
