摘要The uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau is poorly constrained. A key problem is the discrepancy between reconstructions based on different paleoaltimeters. Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) produced by soil-dwelling bacteria offer a potential tool for paleoaltimetry reconstruction. However, because insitu soil temperature-the direct link between brGDGTs and altitude-is generally not well-constrained, the reliability and uncertainty of this approach remain uncertain. Here, we investigated brGDGT distributions and in-situ soil temperature along an altitudinal gradient at 2300-4000 m on Mt. Laji, northeastern Tibetan Plateau, to test the relationships among altitude, temperature, and brGDGTs. The results show that: 1. the measured mean annual soil temperature (MAST) is strongly correlated with altitude (R-2 = 0.73), but compared with those for mean annual air temperature (MAAT) derived from weather stations, the absolute values are substantially higher particularly at higher altitudes, while the lapse rate (-0.39 degrees C/100 m) is much lower; 2. brGDGT-reconstructed MAST using published soil temperature calibrations is generally consistent with in-situ soil temperature measurements, displaying similar lapse rates (-0.48 degrees C/100 m for MAST(ST) and - 0.41 degrees C/100 m for MAST(STS) at the sunny slope) to that for measured MAST; 3. the slope aspect may affect both measured and brGDGT-reconstructed MAST by up to >3 degrees C. Overall, our results demonstrate that soil brGDGTs can quantitatively capture elevation-dependent soil temperature variation on the Tibetan Plateau. However, the use of ex-situ air temperature instead of in-situ soil temperature, and the effect of slope aspect on temperature, may introduce uncertainties in evaluating the brGDGT paleoaltimeter in this region. In paleo-applications, suitable calibrations are required and soil temperature lapse rates should be constrained before applying brGDGTs to quantitatively reconstruct past uplift histories.
