- W1482612805 abstract "Lake Baikal is one of the unique sites on the globe. Its huge freshwater reserves were accumulated over the course of several geological epochs, with Pleistocene glaciations having had an important role in this respect. Clean melt waters from the numerous glaciers that were descending down the surrounding mountain ranges serves as the main supplier of freshwater. The Quaternary glaciation in East Siberia was stronger when compared with Europe, but because of the insufficient amount of moisture in air masses over Central Asia, a permanent snow cover persisted only on the mountain ranges and on their arms. This factor is responsible for a significant depth of freezing of sedimentary rocks (“eternal” frost, or permafrost), and for the occurrence of a smaller (in area and thickness) glacial shield advancing from the Arctic Ocean. Recent years saw the emergence of intensive studies into palaeoclimatic changes, based on analyzing core material from bottom sediments in Baikal. The history of the “Drilling on Baikal” or “Baikal-Drilling” program is widely known from publications of such outstanding scientists as M.I. Kuzmin, G.K. Khursevich, A.A. Prokopenko, S.A. Fedenya, and E.B. Karabanov (Kuzmin et al., 2009); S.M. Colman, J.A. Peck, E.B. Karabanov S. J. Carter, J. P. Bradbury, J.W. King and D.F. Williams (Colman et al., 1995); T.G. Moore, K.D. Klitgord, A.Ya. Golmstok, and E. Weber (Moore et al., 1997), and others. The program has opened up a new era in the palaeoclimatic investigations into the Baikal hollow. The point is that as early as 1989 D.F. Williams, professor of South Carolina University, suggested to their Russian colleagues that a cooperative project be started aimed at studying global changes in the natural environment and climate of Central Asia based on deep-water drilling on Baikal. In 1992, Japanese scientists headed by Professor Sh. Horie joined the “Baikal-Drilling” project. As part of the drilling operations, several continuous palaeoclimatic records covering a time span of several million years were obtained. The question as to how these palaeoclimatic records are correlated with intra-continental deposits is a currently challenging palaeoclimatic problems of Central Asia which will remain one of the “hottest” areas for many years to come." @default.
