    Agro-pastoralists’ perception of climate change and adaptation in the Qilian Mountains of northwest China

    Basic information of intervieweesResults of the descriptive analysis summarized in Table 2 show that more than half of the respondents were males (69%) and were on average 41.3 years old while more than 32 years of farming experience. The study area is comprised of multiple ethnic groups (Han, Tibetan, Yugur, Mongolian, Hui, etc.). In most cases, the main livelihood activity of the Ethnic Minorities (Tibetan, Yugur, Mongolian, Hui, etc.) is livestock, while Han people main livelihood activity is farming. The majority of respondents (64%) were minority nationality. The vast majority of the agro-pastoralists (86%) have a primary school education or above, even though only 1% of them have Undergraduate education or Above. The results also reveal that 92% of respondents have access to weather information. The average cultivated land Per household is 10.23 Mu and Grassland is 156.21 Mu, respectively. The average per household income is RMB78000, and agricultural income is RMB52000.Table 2 Descriptive statistics of agro-pastoralist characteristics.Full size tableDue to their long-term farming experience, the agro-pastoralists were expected to have a high-level of understanding of local climate knowledge. Also contributing to this could be the information they receive about climate change and for some, the associated training through agro-pastoralists’ associations. Therefore, they also have a propensity to adapt to adverse conditions resulting from climate change impacts. In addition, the high-level of farming experience, the cultivated-land size, grassland size, Credit loan, Insurance, Village cadres all have a positive impact on the level of agro-pastoralists’ adaptation to new climate scenarios.However, the education level and cadres experience may be the major limiting factors for adopting specific long-term adaptation strategies. Ethnicity and gender are also expected to be key factors influencing awareness and adaptation to climate change. There are differences in relative perception intensity between Ethnic Minority and Han because of their cultural ecology (the main livelihood activity of minorities nationality is livestock, while Han main livelihood activity is farming.). In terms of gender, women in rural areas are less mobile and have less access to information and rights. They are also heavily involved in domestic work. However, men may have easier access to information (socializing, going out to work, etc.) Therefore, male headed households are expected to be more likely to adapt to the impact of climate change.Climate change trend in the study areaFigure 2 shows the trend of annual precipitation, annual rainfall and annual snow at different meteorological stations in the study area. As shown in the Fig. 2, precipitation, rainfall and snow show an increasing trend, but the increase range of snow (0.0325–0.375/a) is significantly lower than that of precipitation (1.22–3.1/a) and rainfall (1.04–2.81/a). Similarly, through the inspection, it is found that the multi-collinearity among precipitation, rainfall and snow at each meteorological station is obvious (most R2  > 0.5, and p  More

    Influence of the intertropical convergence zone on early cretaceous plant distribution in the South Atlantic

    The pre-evaporitic, evaporitic, and post-evaporitic phases are recognized for the late Aptian. These phases are recorded within the K40–K50 sequences (Fig. 2A), and show an average maximum thickness of approximately 650 m in the studied basins. The pre-evaporitic phase is represented by carbonate and siliciclastic deposits formed in fluvial and lacustrine deltaic environments within a large proto-oceanic gulf28 (Fig. 2A). The peak of the evaporitic deposition is recorded in the K50 sequence, with widespread occurrences in the Brazilian equatorial margin. The origin of these deposits is the heat intensification associated with the widening of the Atlantic Ocean. These conditions caused strong evaporation leading to a wide distribution of evaporites (mainly halite and anhydrite gypsum) in the South Atlantic basins. The eastern continental margin of Brazil contains a restricted marine section characterized by evaporites, which are particularly prominent in thickness and occurrence in the Espírito Santo Basin (Itaúnas Member of the Mariricu Formation) and the Sergipe Basin (the Ibura Member of the Muribeca Formation)28. Evaporites form the most prominent evidence of dry climates in the South Atlantic basins11, with evaporation exceeding precipitation. The post-evaporitic phase is characterized by fully marine conditions evidenced by rich assemblages of marine fossils. During this phase, carbonates were deposited, followed by muddy and sandy sediments in shallow-marine and slope environments.Figure 2Paleoclimatic phases scheme and principal component analysis for paleoclimatic phases. (A) Paleoclimatic phases scheme for the late Aptian and the main depositional environments. (B) Principal component plot of bioclimatic groups. (C) Principal component for the pre-evaporitic phase (N = 92), evaporitic phase (N = 78), and post-evaporitic phase (N = 385); see Supplementary Fig. 9 for individual basins.Full size imagePaleovegetationWe identified a rich plant community with 139 spore and pollen genera/morphotypes representing all plant groups: bryophytes (five genera), ferns (58 genera), lycophytes (18 genera), pteridosperms (one genus), gymnosperms (27 genera), and angiosperms (30 genera) (Supplementary Table 2). The inferred systematic affinities at the family level reached 100% in bryophytes, 56.9% in ferns, 100% in lycophytes, 100% in pteridosperms, 92.6% in gymnosperms, and 40.0% in angiosperms, totaling 67.6% of the recorded genera (Supplementary Table 2). Marine elements (e.g., dinoflagellate cysts and microforaminiferal linings) were identified, in particular from the Sergipe and Araripe basins (Fig. 1). Pollen grains from gymnosperms were most abundant, represented mainly by the conifer families Cheirolepidiaceae, Araucariaceae, and Podocarpaceae, although representing different climatic settings. Classopollis (Cheirolepidiaceae) is the most abundant genus in all sections studied, followed by Araucariacites (Araucariaceae). Gymnosperms showed low diversity. Spore-producing plants are the most diverse in the assemblages of all basins (82 genera) and represented by several families of bryophytes, ferns, and lycophytes (e.g., Sphagnaceae, Anemiaceae, Cyatheaceae, Marsileaceae, Selaginellaceae, and Lycopodiaceae). These plant groups depend on water to reproduce and are therefore associated with humid settings.Cicatricosisporites (Anemiaceae) is the third most abundant palynomorph in all the basins, but especially in the northeastern basins (e.g., Sergipe Basin). Angiosperms are among the least abundant; however, they are diverse and include the most abundant and controversial genus Afropollis, herein attributed to angiosperms. In the most recent publication that addressed this question, ref.29 suggest that Afropollis should be treated as an angiosperm genus, although without more precise systematic assignment. The 30 genera/morphotypes of angiosperms are assigned to 8 families, viz., Arecaceae, Chloranthaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Flacourtiaceae, Illiciaceae, Liliaceae, Solanaceae and Trimeniaceae. The second most abundant genus is Stellatopollis also without precise systematic assignment.Spatio-temporal distribution of bioclimatic groupsOn the basis of their botanical affinities, most taxa were classified into five bioclimatic groups [see “Methods” section and Supplementary information], viz., hydrophytes, hygrophytes, tropical lowland flora, upland flora, and xerophytes (Supplementary Table 2) (Fig. 3).Figure 3Relevant palynomorphs of bioclimatic groups: (1) Aequitriradites sp.; (2) Crybelosporites sp.; (3) Perotriletes sp.; (4) Cicatricosisporites sp.; (5) Echinatisporis sp.; (6) Verrucosisporites sp.; (7) Bennettitaepollenites sp.; (8) Stellatopollis sp.; (9) Afropollis sp.; (10) Dejaxpollenites microfoveolatus; (11) Classopollis classoides; (12) Equisetosporites ovatus; (13) Gnetaceaepollenites jansonii; (14) Regalipollenites sp.; (15) Araucariacites sp.; (16) Callialasporites dampieri; (17) Complicatissacus cearensis; (18) Cyathidites sp.. Scale bar 20 µm.Full size imageOverall, the vegetation is dominated by the xerophytic bioclimatic group on account of the very high abundance of Classopollis (Cheirolepidiaceae) (general mean of 60.5%). However, the stratigraphic distribution of the bioclimatic groups in the sections studied (Supplementary Figs. 1–6) indicates wet phases confirmed by the curves of the other bioclimatic groups (hygrophytes, hydrophytes, tropical lowland flora, and upland flora). We used Pearson correlation analysis (Supplementary Fig. 7) to assess the correlation between the bioclimatic groups. The analysis revealed positive correlations between the bioclimatic groups of hygrophytes, hydrophytes, tropical lowland flora, and upland flora, and a negative correlation between these groups and the xerophyte group (Supplementary Fig. 7). The positive correlation between upland flora and hygrophytes confirms previous studies for the Sergipe Basin6,7, suggesting a relation between these groups and the hot and humid climate. The weak negative correlation between tropical lowland flora and upland flora is presumably related to elevation.The upland flora forms the second most abundant bioclimatic group, with an average of 18.9%. The large number of specimens of Araucariacites (Araucariaceae) in this group is notable. The hydrophytes are the least abundant group, with an average of only 1.4%. In this group, the highest values are attributed to the genus Crybelosporites (Marsileaceae).Principal component analyses (PCA) were used to reduce the multidimensional dataset, based on the percent abundance of the bioclimatic groups to a smaller number of dimensions for interpretive analysis. For all sections, two components or axes explain 97.6% of the observed variability (Fig. 2B). Hygrophytes, hydrophytes, tropical lowland flora, and upland flora show positive correlation (positive loading, 0.320, 0.029, 0.006, and 0.468, respectively), whereas xerophytes show a negative relationship (negative loading, − 0.823) on the first axis, which alone explains 83.0% of the variability. In summary, the first axis of the PCA reveals a separation of two major climatic conditions (wet and dry) along the axis (Fig. 2B). The wet conditions include the associations of hygrophytes, hydrophytes, tropical lowland flora, and upland flora, with dry conditions associated with taxa from the xerophyte group. The second axis explains 14.6%, in which hygrophytes, hydrophytes, and tropical lowland flora show a positive correlation relationship (positive loading, 0.719, 0.037, 0.036, respectively), whereas upland flora and xerophytes show a negative relationship (negative loading, − 0.684 and − 0.108, respectively). With respect to the second axis, a polarization between the hygrophytes (positive loading, 0.719) and the upland flora (negative loading, − 0.684) can be interpreted as a lowland–upland trend. The same pattern was recorded for all paleoclimatic phases (Fig. 2C) and sections (Supplementary Fig. 8), that is, the first axis is related to humidity vs. aridity, and the second axis to elevation (lowland vs. upland). This suggests that these two factors, particularly the first one, controlled the vegetation distribution in the late Aptian of the region. As all bioclimatic groups occurred in the three evaporitic phases, these trends in abundance reflect expansion and contraction of the recorded vegetation.Parallel increasing trends of bioclimatic groups mark the pre-evaporitic phase: hygrophytes and upland flora in the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, Parnaíba, Ceará, Potiguar, and Araripe basins (Supplementary Figs. 1–3 and 5), suggesting that there was a certain amount of moisture in these areas. The xerophytes show the lowest average of this phase (44.1%) (Table 1), whereas hygrophytes show the highest average (27.0%). These humid conditions are confirmed by the highest mean of the Fs/X ratio (Fs/X = 0.4), representing the predominance of spore-producing plants [see Methods section and Supplementary information]. Despite the low abundance of hydrophytes in the sections, a prominent feature is the highest average (2.5%) of this group (Table 1), which is assigned to aquatic environments, confirming relatively wet conditions in this phase. There are no pre-evaporitic samples available from the Sergipe and Espírito Santo basins.Table 1 Average abundance of bioclimatic groups, diversity, Fs/X and marine elements for the paleoclimatic phases.Full size tableThe evaporitic phase is characterized by the highest abundance of the xerophyte bioclimatic group (76.4%) (Table 1), represented mainly by Classopollis (Supplementary Figs. 1–6). A high abundance of xerophytes occurred widely distributed in all basins studied. In this phase, tropical lowland flora is notable, showing an average higher than the overall average (3.3%), particularly in the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, Parnaíba, and Ceará basins (Supplementary Figs. 1 and 2). This result is related to the moderate to high abundance of the genus Afropollis in these basins. The evaporitic phase is also characterized by the lowest average Fs/X ratio (Fs/X = 0.1) (Table 1), confirming the dominance of xerophytes.The post-evaporitic phase is characterized by the upland flora bioclimatic group (mean = 24.4%) (Table 1). The moderate to high abundance of upland flora in this phase is represented, in particular, by pollen grains of Araucariacites, which represent the high-relief family Araucariaceae. This bioclimatic group is associated with more humid conditions, as confirmed by an Fs/X ratio higher than the overall average (Fs/X = 0.2). The upland flora is significant in all basins, except the Espírito Santo Basin, where xerophytes predominate in both studied phases in this basin.Latitudinal biome distributionsBiome change is a fundamental biological response to climate change. In the study area, the predominance of a specific biome is mainly related to humidity, since all five recorded bioclimatic groups are related to a warm climate (Supplementary Table 2) representing two biomes: tropical xerophytic shrubland and tropical rainforest. In the rainforest biome two phytophysiognomies are recognized: lowland and montane rainforest. The tropical xerophytic shrubland biome predominates in the three paleoclimatic phases, with a wide latitudinal range from the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, and Parnaíba basins (1° S) to the Espírito Santo Basin (20° S). This wide distribution is compatible with a predominantly arid climate in South America in the late Aptian, as indicated by paleoclimatic maps8,9,15 (Fig. 4A). Most arid and semi-arid ecosystems are mainly controlled by precipitation. Other climate parameters are less important, a condition that simplifies cause-effect interpretations. The PCA (Fig. 2B) demonstrated that the wet–dry trend, which reflects high–low precipitation, was the main determinant in the distribution of the biomes. However, considering all phases, an increasing trend in humidity was observed from the southeast (Espírito Santo Basin) to the northeast (e.g., Potiguar Basin) (Fig. 4B), coinciding with the hot and wet belt attributed to the ITCZ (Fig. 4A)15. The latitudinal distribution of diversity also follows this trend. Diversity increased significantly towards in the basins near the equator. Diversity indices (Shannon – H’) peaked in the Sergipe Basin (H’ = 3.5, CL-47 section) at 11° S. Conversely, the lowest average diversity is recorded in the Espírito Santo Basin (H’ = 1.1) at 20° S. Additionally, there is a clear correlation between high diversity (H’) and humidity (Fs/X ratio) (r = 0.691), regardless of paleoclimatic phase, as evidenced by the synchronicity of the H’ and Fs/X curves (Fig. 5). After data normalization between humidity (Fs/X) and marine elements (dinoflagellate cysts and microforaminifer linings), we performed linear correlation analyses, which showed a weak but positive correlation (r = 0.137). This is due to the fact that pre- evaporitic deposits contain only 19 occurrences of dinoflagellate cysts in 90 samples. Despite this, the curves of Fs/X, marine elements and diversity are synchronous (Fig. 5), suggesting a relation between humidity, diversity, and marine incursions.Figure 4Latitudinal changes in late Aptian biomes from southeast to center-north.

Change in biomes, diversity, Fs/X ratio and marine elements shown by changepoint analysis plotted against paleoclimatic phases.Full size imageThe pre-evaporitic phase is marked by a certain balance between the biomes (Fig. 4C,D). In the lowlands, the tropical xerophytic shrubland biome predominated in the Bragança- Viseu, São Luís, Parnaíba, and Ceará basins, but in the Potiguar Basin it is co-dominant with the lowland rainforest. The montane rainforest was relatively extensive in this phase, although with several areal changes, and reached its widest extent in the Araripe (7° S) and Potiguar (5° S) basins in response to the deterioration of the tropical xerophytic shrubland biome. These conditions demonstrate that humidity was relatively high at this stage. The pre-evaporitic deposits were characterized by the highest diversity average (H’ = 1.8).The method of indicator species analysis (IndVal) was used to identify the key species of each paleoclimatic phase (Supplementary Table 15). The species identified for the pre-evaporitic phase, Deltoidospora spp. (Cyatheaceae-Dicksoniaceae) related to the montane rainforest, are indicator species for the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, Parnaíba, and Ceará basins. The Gnetaceaepollenites spp. (Gnetaceae) of the Potiguar Basin and Equisetosporites spp. (Ephedraceae) of the Araripe Basin are related to the tropical xerophytic shrubland biome (Supplementary Table 15). Even for the pre-evaporitic phase, a progressive increase in the tropical xerophytic shrubland biome was observed and interpreted as the start of a climatic deterioration stage (Fig. 4C), which culminated in the evaporitic phase. Shifts in vegetation types may occur when precipitation reaches a threshold value, which means that a regionally synchronous gradual climate change can cause abrupt vegetation shifts. The change from humid to warm and arid conditions (evaporitic phase) is directly related to a decrease in precipitation. This aridization process coincides with the appearance of marine elements (e.g., dinoflagellate cysts). The threshold effect (intense evaporation) is reflected in an abrupt decrease in the abundance of lowland and montane rainforest and a sharp increase to a very high abundance of the tropical xerophytic shrubland biome (Supplementary Figs. 4C and 5). The threshold effect was not detected in the Espírito Santo Basin, where the arid conditions remained stable with minimal shift (expansion and contraction) of the biome. The main representatives of this biome are conifers of the family Cheirolepidiaceae (Classopollis), which were most abundant in lagoons and coastal environments and are often associated with evaporates30,31,32,33,34,35. Even under xeric or water-stressed conditions there was a slight increase in biomes related to a humid climate (lowland and montane rainforest phytophysiognomies) towards the equatorial region, suggesting influence of the ITCZ (Fig. 4A,B).The evaporitic phase was characterized by the lowest diversity average (H’ = 1.2). With modest rainfall, arid regions are generally characterized by fewer species than moister biomes36. However, diversity indices peaked in the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, and Parnaíba basins (H’ = 2.6, RL-01 section) and along the equatorial margin (2° S) (Supplementary Fig. 1).IndVal emphasizes the xeric conditions in the evaporitic phase by association with the species from the tropical xerophytic shrubland biome: Classopollis spp. (Ceará and Potiguar basins), Classopollis classoides (Sergipe Basin), Classopollis intrareticulatus (Araripe Basin), and Gnetaceaepollenites spp. (Espírito Santo Basin). For the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, Parnaíba, and Ceará basins, where xeric restrictions are milder, the indicator taxon is Afropollis spp. from the lowland rainforest. This genus shows the weakest negative correlation with xerophytes.After the end of evaporite deposition, all sections indicate climatic stability, which kept the climate hot and arid even in the post-evaporitic phase, although the response was not linear.The shift in the biomes, especially the tropical xerophytic shrubland in the Bragança-Viseu, São Luís, Parnaíba, Ceará, and Araripe basins, occurred in the transition between the evaporitic and post-evaporitic phases, whereas in the Potiguar and Sergipe basins it occurred within the post-evaporitic phase. As indicated in the dendrograms of each section (Supplementary Figs. 1–6), the shift occurred abruptly in all basins, except the Espírito Santo Basin. The tropical rainforest biome (lowland and montane rainforests) replaced the tropical xerophytic shrubland in almost all basins (Fig. 4C). Even the Espírito Santo Basin, far from the influence of the ITCZ, shows a slight increase in lowland rainforest. The changes in the biomes are attributable to threshold effects caused by gradual climate change related to the ITCZ intensification shift and progressive increase in marine influence, indicated by an increase in marine microplankton from an average of 3.9% in the evaporitic phase to 44.1%. The increase in marine influence is reflected in the first major flooding surface observed in the Cretaceous succession27. Thus, a climate amelioration stage was established in the post- evaporitic phase (Fig. 5). In combination with published paleotopographic information25, the bioclimatic groups associated to the humid conditions (hygrophytes, hydrophytes, tropical lowland flora, and upland flora) were combined and visualized to create Fig. 6.Figure 6Reconstruction of the transitional gradient between marine to terrestrial environment (uplands) under ITCZ influence. The illustration is based on paleoflora and environmental information from palynological data from studied sections. Original size illustration: 18 × 24 cm, by Julio Lacerda.Full size imageAccording to refs.7,37, arid conditions are characterized by sea-level lowstands, whereas warm and humid conditions are correlated with sea levels rise, which explains the increase in the tropical rainforest biome (lowland and montane rainforests). The more intense humidity is supported by the results of IndVal for the post-evaporitic phase, with all species related to humid climate: Deltoidospora spp. (Bragança-Viseu, São Luís and Parnaíba basins), Araucariacites limbatus (Ceará Basin), Cicatricosisporites spp. (Potiguar Basin), Cicatricosisporites spp. and Araucariacites australis (Sergipe Basin), Inaperturopollenites spp. (Araripe Basin) and Inaperturopollenites simplex (Espírito Santo Basin).Our results show that the ITCZ combined with the opening of the South Atlantic Ocean during the late Aptian altered vegetation dynamics. As today, the ITCZ influence is stronger in the northeastern and north-central regions of South America. It is notable that the late Aptian climate evolution in the South Atlantic, culminating in higher humidity, was accompanied by an intrinsic relation between plant diversity, humidity, and marine influence.
