Identifcation of the earliest forebrain-specific markers should facilitate the elucidation of molecular events underlying vertebrate forebrain determination and specification. Here we report the sequence and characterization of fez (forebrain embryonic zinc finger), a gene that is specifically expressed in the embryonic forebrain of zebrafish. Fez encodes a putative nuclear zinc finger protein that is highly conserved in Drosophila, zebrafish, Xenopus, mouse, and human. In zebrafish, the expression of fez becomes detectable at the anterior edge of the presumptive neuroectoderm by 70% epiboly. During the segmentation period, its expression is completely restricted to the rostral region of the prospective forebrain. At approximately 24 h postfertilization, fez expression is mostly confined to the telencephalon and the anterior-ventral region of the diencephalon. Although fez expression is present in one-eyed pinhead (oep) and cyclops (cyc) zebrfish mutants, the pattern is altered. Forced expression of fez induces ectopic expression of dlx2 and dlx6, two genes involved in brain development. Knockdown of fez function using a morpholino-based antisense oligo inhibited dlx2 expression in the ventral forebrain. Our studies indicate that fez is one of the earliest markers specific for the anterior neuroectoderm and it may play a role in forebrain development by regulating Dlx gene expression.

The effects of sublethal concentrations of phenol and cadmium on the phototactic responses of the stage II nauplii of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite were investigated. Increased toxicant concentrations caused a reduction in phototactic responses. Balanus amphitrite nauplii exposed to nominal phenol concentrations of 100 ppm and higher for 1-12 h failed to exhibit phototactic responses, while longer exposure times of 24 and 48 h reduced the lowest observable effect concentration (LOECs) to 80 and 60 ppm, respectively. For cadmium, the LOECs, based on nominal concentrations, for B. amphitrite following 1, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h exposures were 20, 4.5, 4.0, 1, and 0.75 ppm, respectively. The LOECs can be significantly reduced by increasing the duration of exposure to the toxicants. A good relationship exists between the phototactic response and toxicant concentration as well as exposure time. Results of this study indicate that the toxicant-induced reduction in phototactic responses of barnacle larvae can be used in a sensitive, rapid screening test for ecotoxicological assessments.

By vertical sedimentation and oblique titration, silica microspheres were grown in different shapes of concave microzones that were etched on a (100) p-silicon substrate. Through scanning electron microscope observation and optical reflective spectra measurement, sedimentation of microspheres in those microzones was compared. An index was introduced to judge the efficiency of sedimentation. The comparison demonstrates that regular hexagons and triangles facilitate the growth of photonic crystals the most.

本文叙述了2.4-二甲基戊二烯基稀土金属有机化合物的合成并通过元素分析,红外光谱、核磁共振谱及质谱的鉴定。测定了Gd(2.4-GH_(11))_3的单晶结构,此外还合成了(2.4-GH_(11)K.TMEDA及K_2C_8H_8·3THF并也测定了它们的晶体结构。在所合成化合物的红外光谱中,没有属于C=C双键的吸收峰,表明分子中配位体以η~5形式的大π键体系与稀土金属离子结合,在Ln(2.4-GH_(11))_2Cl·TMF和Ln(2.4-GH_(11))Cl_2·GH_THF的红外光谱中,于1060波数附近出现一强而宽的吸收峰,即化合物中有四氢呋喃分子络合。化合物的室温NMR谱有四个吸收峰,2.4-二甲基戊二烯配位体可能为η~5平面∪或W构型。化合物的水解'H-NMR谱与质谱都证实水解产物为2.4-二甲基-1.3-戊二烯。它是-2.4二甲基戊二烯阴离子水解所得的唯一产物,它表明化合物中的配位体确为2.4-二甲基戊二烯阴离子。(2.4-GH_(11))_2Cl·TMDA配合物晶体结构是应用低温X-射线衍射技术用Nicolet R_3 M/E型四园衍射仪LT-1低温装置并利用重原子法测定的最小二乘法精修至收敛时的一致性因子R=0.055. Rw=0.057。晶体属单斜晶系P21/n空间群。晶胞参数a=11.322(4)A, b=9.242(3)A, c=15.956(5)A. β=106.70(3)分子中2.4-二甲基戊二烯阴离子呈平面∪构型。钾离子与四甲基乙二胺二啮体结合形成的络合阳离子和2.4-二甲基戊二烯阴离子相间排列形成无限链状结构分子。2.4-二甲基戊二烯阴离子的C-C键长明显分为中间与外端C-C键两组。外端组C-C键双性质较强键长较短。表明C3具有负电荷的共振杂化体贡献较大。分子中K-C键最短的是K-C(1.5)。而不是具有较多负电荷的C3-K键。这可能是由于几何因素造成的。K_2C_8H_8·3THF的晶体结构是采用与前者相同的方法测定的。它属三斜晶系,PT空间群,晶胞参数a=10.263(3)A, b=13.157(4)A, c=9.443A, α=87.51(2)°, β=114.93(2)°, γ=76.81(2)°. V=1111.6A, R=0.051. 晶体中负二价的环辛四烯阴离呈平面构型,具有中心对称性,两侧与两中心对称相关的钾离子连接,相邻的非等效的钾离子间通过两四氢呋喃分子的氧原子相连接,从而形成了无限链状结构的分子。环辛四烯反映了Huckel的4n+2芳香性规则。该结构的特别之处在于四氢呋喃分子的氧原子以桥键形式与两个钾离子同时连接。而这种形式的桥键在其它化合物中似还未发现。Go(2.4-GH_(11))_3的晶体结构亦是采用与前述相同的方法测定的。其晶体为三斜晶系,PT空间群,晶胞参数a=12.541A, b=12.853A, c=8.432A, α=91.44°, β=108.61°, γ=117.97°, V=112.54A~3. 结构测定表明,Gd(2.4-GH_(11))_3分子具有C_3h对称性。三个配位体阴离了的九个带负电荷的碳原子近似以三帽三角棱柱形式与钆离子配位。分子中2.4-二甲基戊二烯阴离子的C-C键长-亦分为而组。外端C-C键较中间C-C键强,键长较短,亦表明C3具有较多的负电荷。2.4-二甲基戊二烯阴离子本身近似呈平面∪构型。C2,C4偏离由C1 C3 C5三碳原子构成的平面0.067A。方向上远离中心钆离子。可能在此以离子性为主的化合物中,钆离子与不带电荷的C2 C4间的相互作用有些排斥性质。与Nd(2.4-GH_(11))_3不同的是,在Gd(2.4-GH_(11))_3分子中,Gd-(C(1,5)键最短,而不是Gd-C(3)键。这可能是由于钆离子的半径较小,化合物的空间位阻效应较大所致。

I LnCl_3-LiCl-THF配合物的研究深入地研究了氯化稀土和氯化锂于四氢呋喃溶液中,以不同的摩尔比,在不同条件下的反应。实验结果表明,反应速度随着稀土元素原子半径的减小,LiCl/LnCl_3摩尔比的增大,以及四氢呋喃用量的增加而加快。通过紫外质谱元素分析和X-射线单晶结构分析等证明,随着不同的LiCl/LnCl_3摩尔比和结晶条件的不同,可以得到不同组成的LnCl_3-LiCl-TNF配合物。对(LaCl)(THF)_2(μ_2-Cl)_4[Li(THF)_2]_2和(LaCl)DME(μ_3-Cl)(μ_2-Cl)_5(La·DME)Li(THF)_2晶体的结构分析表明,前者为单斜晶系,P21/C空间群。a=10.542(4), b=32.236(4), c=11.182(6)A °; β=113.50(3) °, V=3484.97 A °~3. Z=4, R=0.0471;后者为三斜晶系,PT空间群,晶胞参数是:a=11.123(3), b=16.564(5), c=8.653(3)A °;α=95.16(3), β=95.63(3), γ=74.71(3) °;V=1527.0A °~3。Z=2,R=0.0303。实验结果还表明,μ_2-和μ_3-氯桥键是LnCl_3-LiCl-THF类配合物中最基本、最重要的配位键,这种键是通过多重键的方式起着稳定分子结构的作用。当进行与有机配体的交换反应时,由于它们的特殊稳定性,能起到阻止轻稀土有机配合物歧化反应的作用。II环戊二烯基轻镧系氯化物的合成及其稳定性的研究对(G_5H_5)_3Ln·THF和LnCl_3·3LiCl-THF (Ln=La, Nd)溶液反应的研究表明,由于μ_2-氯桥键的作用,轻稀土环戊二烯基化合物中环戊二烯基的再分配反应,在0℃或室温下都能迅速进行。通过两者不同的摩尔比反应,经元素分析、红外光谱、~1H NMR和质谱鉴定,方便地合成了C_5H_5 LnCl_2·2LiCl·5THF和(C_5H_5)_2LnCl.LiCl·nTHF (Ln=La, Nd)等配合物。这一结果表明(C_5H_5)_2LnCl.LiCl·nTHF配合物不仅能稳定地存在于THF溶液中,而且能在一定条件下析出结晶。对(C_5H_5)_2LaCl.LiCl·4THF的晶体结构测定表明,该晶体属于正交晶系,Pc2m空间群。a=12.306(4), b=23.056(6), c=26.701(11)A°; V=7575.81A°~3;而(C_5H_5)_2LaCl·LiCl(DME)_2THF晶体则属于六方晶系,a=12.967(4), b=12.967(4), c=24.108(10)A°;V=3510 A°~3。通过(G_5H_5)_3Ln·THF与LnCl_3·3THF (Ln=La, Nd)的反应进一步研究了轻稀土环戊二烯基氯化物的稳定性。经元素分析,红外光谱和晶体结构分析表明合成了[(η~5-C_5H_5)_4La_3Cl_5·3THF]_2·9THF和(C_5H_5)_2 NdCl·THF配合物,前者属于三斜晶系,P1空间群。a=11.690(3), b=11.750(5), c=18.433(6)A°; α=98.75(3), β=95.62(3), γ=118.92(2)°; V=2147.06 A°~3. Z=1, R=0.099。对环戊二烯基轻稀土氯化物的稳定性进行了较详细地讨论。结果表明,THF的用量和化合物的溶解度是影响产物组成的决定因素。当THF的量不足以溶解所生成的产物时,就会歧化成溶解度最大((C_5H_5)_3Ln·THF)和最小(LnCl_3·nTHF)的两种组分。反之,环戊二烯基轻稀土化合物(Ln=La, Nd)中环戊二烯基的再分配反应就能顺利进行。经元素分析和结构测定,在((C_5H_5)_3Nd·THF)和NdCl_3·LiCl-THF溶液的反应体系中,偶然分离得到了[(η~5-C_5H_5)_4Nd_4(μ_4-o)(μ_2-Cl)_8] [Li(DMP)_2THF]_2这一不合常规的化合物,其晶体属于正交晶系,Pna2,空间群a=19.010(7), b=23.231(6), c=14.180(4); V=6261.91 A°~3。Z=4, R=0.054。说明在一定条件下,μ-氧桥键也起到了稳定分子结构的作用。推测了各类环戊二烯基轻稀土氯化物在THF中的合成反应机理,在LiCl存在的反应体系中Ln cl cl Li桥键能与环戊二烯基发生交换反应;在(C_5H_5)_3Ln·THF和LnCl_3·3THF的反应体系中,首先存在着LnCl_3分子之间的互相作用,因而易于形成双核或多核配合物。这类配合物以晶体形式析出时,易于发生结构上的变化,即化合物的结晶形态与溶液中的形态不一定相同。探索了环戊二烯基烯丙基稀土化合物新的合成方法。找到了真空加热脱水制备氯化稀土的最佳条件,其产物纯度在97%以上。通过加入Co_3O_4/Wo_3催化助燃剂的方法,提高了测定稀土有机化合物中碳含量的准确性。

雌激素是人体内重要的激素之一,具有广泛的生理功能。雌激素缺乏与许多疾病相关,如卵巢功能低下,更年期综合征以及骨质疏松等;雌激素过剩也将导致某些疾病,如乳腺癌、卵巢癌、子宫内膜癌等。目前,如何降低肿瘤组织中的雌激素水平而达到治疗肿瘤的目的,已经得到广泛的研究,但促雌激素生成或调节卵巢功能药物或其相关研究则很少。 本实验室前期的研究发现,瓦山安息香属植物果实中的乙醇提取物具有促雌激素生成作用,通过活性追踪和结构鉴定,确认促E2 生成的主要成分为苯并呋喃类化合物。苯并呋喃类化合物的作用与芳香酶有关,但其确切的作用机理有待证实和深入研究。 为了探讨安息香苯并呋喃类化合物的促雌激素合成的作用机理,拟采用如下的实验方案: 1、细胞学方面,对小鼠3T3-L1 前脂肪细胞、人乳腺癌细胞MCF-7、MDA-MB-231 以及人卵巢癌细胞OVCAR-3、OVCAR-4、OVCAR-5、OVCAR-8、IGROV1 等细胞株,采用RT-PCR 和ELISA 方法研究芳香酶Aro基因的表达和雌二醇E2 的生成,芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 作为阳性对照,研究时效曲线和量效曲线,确定安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 的有效浓度和作用时间。 2、RNAi 方面,设计合成了针对人芳香酶Aro基因的3 对RNAi 序列,转染入细胞,芳香酶促进剂Forskolin 和地塞米松、芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 作为阳性对照,采用实时定量PCR 技术,研究RNA 干扰后,安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 对人芳香酶Aro基因表达水平瓦山安息香苯并呋喃促雌激素合成的机理研究的影响。 3、雌激素受体方面,设计一段ERE 的雌激素调控元件,构建重组荧光素酶报告基因载体,瞬时转染人乳腺癌细胞株MDA-MB-231,建立针对雌激素受体的报告基因筛选模型,观察安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 对雌激素受体的选择性和亲和力,从受体水平考察安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 促进雌激素生成的药理学机理。 实验结果显示: 1、分化后的小鼠3T3-L1 前脂肪细胞、人乳腺癌细胞MCF-7 、MDA-MB-231 以及人卵巢癌细胞OVCAR-3、OVCAR-4、OVCAR-8 等细胞株具有芳香酶基因的表达。睾酮向雌二醇的转化能够被芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 所阻断,其中OVCAR-3 最适合进行下一步的RNAi研究。 2、RNAi 实验结果显示,设计的3 对RNAi 序列中R2 的干扰效果最强,相应的阴性对照C2 与R2 的表达量相差118 倍(24 小时)和19 倍(48 小时),显示R2/C2 这组序列可用于进一步的RNAi 试验。以R2 干扰OVCAR-3 细胞株,药物作用24、48 小时后,芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 与R2 相对表达量相比分别为0.83 倍和0.04 倍;芳香酶促进剂Forskolin 与R2 相对表达量相比分别为3.61 和1.84 倍;芳香酶促进剂地塞米松与R2 相对表达量相比分别为5.76 倍和3.49倍;苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 与R2 相对表达量相比分别为8.13 倍和4.59 倍。实验证实安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 能够促进因RNAi 而发生基因沉默的人芳香酶Aro表达水平的上调。 3、雌激素受体实验结果显示,构建成功重组pERE-pGL3-promoter 荧光素酶报告基因载体和基于报告基因系统的雌激素受体激动剂或拮抗剂的细胞筛选模型。实验结果表明安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 与雌激素受体ERα和ERβ亲和力选择性之比约为3:1 ,SP25通过与雌激素受体ERα结合作用其受体,刺激芳香酶的表达。 本课题通过RNA 干扰、ELISA、荧光实时定量PCR、报告基因筛选模型等技术手段,从细胞水平、蛋白酶水平和基因表达水平、雌激素受体水平等方面系统地研究了从瓦山安息香属植物果实中提取的苯并呋喃SP25 促进促雌激素生成的机理研究。试验结果显示苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 促雌激素生成的主要作用机制是直接促进芳香酶基因表达水平,以及与雌激素受体a 结合,刺激芳香酶活性。 Estrogen is an important hormone that has versatile physiologicalfunctions. Lack of estrogen will lead to many diseases such as lower ovarianfunction, climacteric syndrome and osteoporosis. Excessive estrogen alsoinduces breast carcinoma, oophoroma and endometrial carcinoma and otherdiseases. To depress the estrogen level in tumor tissue to cure carcinomawas widely studied, but there is only few studies reported on the induction ofestrogen and on the regulation of ovary function. We found that the extracts from seeds of Styrax perkinsiae couldpromote the synthesis of estrogen. The active compounds benzofurans wereidentified. Effect of benzofurans may be related to aromatase, but the mechanism was not clear. To reveal the mechanism of these benzofurans to promote estrogensynthesis, the following protocols were adopted: 1 Cytology: 3T3-L1 preadipocytes,human ovary carcinoma celllines OVCAR-3,OVCAR-4,OVCAR-5,OVCAR-8,IGROV1 andbreast carcinoma cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 were usedto determine Aro gene expression and estrogen production withRT-PCR AND ELISA methods. Formestane, an aromataseinhibitor, was used as positive control. And dose-curve,time-curve and the effective concentration of SP25 were also studied. 2 Designed 3 pairs of RNAi for human aromatase gene, andtransfected into cell. Aromatase inducer Forskolin andDexamethasone, and aromatase inhibitor Formestane were usedas positive controls. We studied the change of Aro expressionlevel with SP25 by using real-time PCR after RNA interfering. 3 Estrogen Receptor: We constructed the recombined Luciferasereport vector and establish a screening system for estrogenagonist and antagon. With this system, we studied the affinity ofSP25 and estrogen receptor. Results: 1 Differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes¡¢human ovary carcinomacell lines:OVCAR-3, OVCAR-4, OVCAR-8 and breast carcinomacell lines MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 had detected aromatase geneexpression.And OVCAR-3 is more suitable for further aromatasegene function research. 2 In RNAi assay, R2 has a strong interfering effcet in OVCAR-3 cellline, and ratio of C2 (the negative control) to R2 were 118 times(24 hours) and 19 times (48 hours). This means sucessful inRNA interfering. After R2 acted on OVCAR-3 cell line, the ratiosof formestane to R2 were 0.83 and 0.04 times, 5.76 and 3.49times (Dex), 3.61 and 1.84 times (forskolin) and 8.13 and 4.59times (sp25) after drug treated 24 or 48 hours respectively.These results indicated that SP25 can directly induce aromatasegene up-regulation. 3 We had constructed pERE-pGL3-promoter recombined vectorand the Luciferase report gene screening system. Luciferasereport gene assay showed that sp25 had a higher affinity with strogen receptor alpha than estrogen receptor beta, this indicated that SP25 can act on estrogen receptor and induce aromatase. Our results revealed that the mechanisms of benzofuran to promoteestrogen were the upregulation aromatase gene expression and promotion ofaromatase activity and have partially elective affinity with estrogen receptoralpha.

The electron emission induced by highly charged ions Pb-207(q+) (24 <= q <= 36) interacting with Si(110) surface is reported. The result shows that the electron emission yield Y has a strong dependence on the projectile charge state q, incidence angle psi and impact energy E. In fitting the experimental data we found a nearly 1/tan psi dependence of Y. Theoretical analysis shows that these processes are closely related to the process of potential electron emission based on the classical over-the-barrier model.

This paper presents results of 2 years (from January 2005 to December 2006) of measurement of N2O fluxes from the native and grazed Leymus chinensis (LC) steppes in Inner Mongolia, China using the static opaque chamber method. The measurement was at a frequency of twice per month in the growing season and once per month in the non-growing season. In addition, the possible effect of water-heat factors on N2O fluxes was statistically analyzed. The results indicated that there were distinct seasonal patterns in N2O fluxes with large fluxes in spring, summer, and autumn but negative fluxes in winter. The annual net emission of N2O ranging from 0.24 to 0.30 kg N2O-N ha(-1) and from 0.06 to 0.26 kg N2O-N ha(-1) from the native and grazed LC steppe, respectively. Grazing activities suppressed N2O production. In the growing season, soil moisture was the primary driving factor of N2O fluxes. The high seasonal variation of N2O fluxes was regulated by the distribution of effective rainfall, rather than precipitation intensity. Air temperature or soil temperature at 0, 5, and 10 cm depth was the most restricting factor of N2O fluxes in the non-growing season.

By [2 + 2] Schiff base condensation of 5 - bromo - 2 - methoxylbenzene - 1,3 - dicarboxaldehyde with diethylenetriamine, a new hexaaza 24 - membered macrocyclic ligand was obtained,which formed a macrocyclic binuclear copper(I) complex in the presence of [Cu . (CH3CN)(4)]ClO4. When the copper(I) complex was oxidized in air or oxygen, a new macrocyclic binuclear copper( II) complex was obtained. The copper( II.) complex was characterized by several methods and its oxidized products was characterized by H-1 NMR. The results show that during oxidation, a methoxyl group in the ligand ring broke; and the phenoxy - and water - bridged Cu(II) complex formed. In oxidation of monooxygenase such as ligninase, oxidative demethylation also happened. Therefore this work mimicked this process for the first time by using macrocyclic complex. The quantity of absorbed oxygen and the absorption rate of oxygen were determined.

A pollen record of core PC-1 from the northern Okinawa Trough, East China Sea (ECS), provides information on vegetation and climate changes since 24 cal. kaBP. A total of 103 samples were palynologically analyzed at 8 cm intervals with a time resolution of 230 a. Four pollen zones are recognized: zone I (812-715 cm, 24.2-21.1 cal. kaBP), zone II (715-451 cm, 21.1-15.2 cal. kaBP), zone III (451-251 cm, 15.2-10.8 cal. kaBP), zone IV (251-0 cm, 10.8-0.3 cal. kaBP), corresponding to Late MIS 3, Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), deglaciation and Holocene, respectively. The LGM is characterized by the dominance of herbs, mainly Artemisia, and high pollen influx, implying an open vegetation on the exposed continental shelf and a cool and dry climate. The deglaciation is a climate warming stage with Pinus percentage increased and Artemisia percentage decreased and a rapid sea-level rise. The Holocene is characterized by predominance of tree pollen with rapid increase in Castanea-Castanopsis indicating the development of mixed evergreen and deciduous broad-leaved forest and a warm, humid climate. Low pollen influx during the Holocene probably implies submergence of the continental shelf and retreat of the pollen source area. The vegetation indicated by pollen assemblage found in this upper zone is consistent with the present vegetation found in Kyushu, Japan. Originating from the humid mountain area of North Luzon of the Philippines, Tasmania and New Zealand, Phyllocladus with sporadic occurrence throughout PC-1 core probably suggests the influence of Palaeo-Kuroshio Current or intense summer monsoon. The observed changes in Pinus and Herbs percentage indicate fluctuations of the sea level, and high Pinus percentage corresponds to high sea level. Spectrum analysis of the pollen percentage record reveals many millennial-scale periodicities, such as periodicities of 6.8, 3.85 2.2, 1.6 ka.

A continuous long (224m) and high-resolution core TY2 was recovered from paleo-maar-lake Tianyang, tropical South China. Based on the diatom records of the upper 130-m core, this paper focuses on exploring climate change and the lake evolution history in tropical South China during the past 240ka. The most typical and unique characteristics of the diatom assemblages is that, Aulacoseira granulata was dominant or absolutely dominant species (80-90%) during most parts of the 130-m core, while Cyclotella stelligera var. tenuis and Fragilaria construens var. venter were subdominant species in only limited parts of the lower and upper core, respectively. Time scale is always the biggest problem for the study of TY2 core, so although diatom is seldom used for establishing time scale, here we attempt this by correlating the diatom-reconstructed temperature sequence with the time scale of ODP core 806B from Equatorial Western Pacific. Verified by the few most reliable ages from TY2 core and the parallel core TYl, a rather reasonable and reliable time scale was established. 01S 7/6 falls at the depth of 100m (ca. 194kaBP), OIS 6/5 at 75m (ca. 132kaBP), OIS 5/4 at 46m (ca. 75kaBP), OIS 4-3 at 35m (ca. 60kaBP). Qualitative and quantitative environmental reconstructions are made on the basis of diatom assemblage ecotype and EDDI dataset. Correlation of diatom-reconstructed temperature and moisture changes of Core TY2 with pollen-reconstructed temperature and rainfall sequence of Core TYl proves that the results are quite consistent in most periods. Thus the reconstruction results from diatom are quite reliable, and probably have a much higher resolution than pollen results. Combined with lithological and magnetic susceptibility variations, the diatom analysis reveals that, the general climate in tropical South China during the past 240ka was warm and wet. On the time scale of glacial-interglacial, warm and wet, cool and dry are not always synchronous. It was relatively warm-wet during the penultimate interglacial, cool-dry during the penultimate glacial, warm-dry during the last interglacial, and cooler-drier during the last glacial. In contrast, on the time scale of subglacial-subinterglacial scales, warm and dry, cool and wet corresponds very obviously, showing very clear 21-23 ka precession cycle. Analysis also shows that, the water of Tianyang paleo-maar-lake was generally warm, turbulent, turbid, meso-trophic, slightly alkaline, low conductivity and fresh during the past 240 kaBP, with small variations in some parts. Tianyang paleolake experienced shallow to semi-deep lake in OIS7d, open shallow lake in OIS7c-OIS5b, shallow coastal lake in OIS5a-OIS4c, swamp in OIS4b, and then completely dried up in OIS3c. The lake evolution was mainly controlled by temperature and precipitation changes in tropical China. While temperature and precipitation changes were probably controlled by the migrations of monsoon rainband and the evaporation rate, which was in turn controlled by the evolution of East Asian monsoon. Therefore, when the summer monsoon was strongest the climate was warm-dry, when stronger the climate was warm-wet; when the winter monsoon was strongest the climate was cool-dry, stronger cool-wet. This mechanism caused the warm-dry sub interglacial and cool-wet subglacial climate in the tropical South China.
