Here we present a new organic carbon isotope (δ13Corg) time series of peat sediments, spanning from 61000 cal a B. P. to 10000 cal a B. P. derived from the northern Leizhou Peninsula. To better understand the past vegetation responses to the climatic and environmental changes, we estimated the relative abundance of C3 and C4 plants using the δ13Corg records and compared them with other climatic records. The estimated results indicate that the vegetations in the study region were mainly composed of mixture of both C3 and C4 plants in the early stage of MIS-3. During the rest of the MIS-3, C3 plants were dominant, although C4 plants expanded to a certain extant during certain periods. During the MIS-2, the relative abundance of C3 plants decreased significantly and C4 plants expanded greatly. At the beginning of the Holocene, the proportion of C3 plants seemed to increase gradually. Variations of the relative abundance of C3 and C4 plants in the northern Leizhou Peninsula was similar to the pattern of East Asian monsoon intensity reconstructed from the stalagmites records, suggesting that the East Asian monsoon intensity accompanied with the changes in monsoonal precipitations exerted a very strong control on the relative abundance of C3 and C4 plants. It is likely that the temperature threshold, which is normally an important factor in high latitudes, may be less important in influencing the relative abundance of C3 and C4 plants in tropical southern China. The atmospheric CO2 concentration may also partly superimpose some influences on the variations of relative abundance of C3 and C4 plants at orbital scale. %R 10.18307/2014.0318 %U http://www.jlakes.org/ch/reader/view_abstract.aspx %1 JIS Version 3.0.0
