文摘根据2010年1月~2011年2月长沙地区日降水中δD、δ18 O资料,分析了该地区天气尺度下降水中δD、δ18 O变化特征。结果表明:在天气尺度下长沙地区大气降水中δ18 O与降水量、水汽压、温度及相对湿度之间存在显著的负相关关系,表明该地区降水中δ18 O的变化具有显著的降水量效应、湿度效应及反温度效应。长沙地区的大气降水线为:δD=8.38δ18 O+17.3,该方程与GNIP(Globe Network of Isotopes in Precipitation)提供的长沙在月尺度下所得到的大气水线方程的斜率和截距相近,但斜率和截距都比GMWL(Globe Meteoric Water Line)偏大,说明该地区具有湿润多雨的气候特点。研究结果对揭示东亚季风区稳定同位素变化特征以及古气候的解释具有重要意义。
