Abstract The last glacial Heinrich Stadial 4 event(HS4 event),which occurred at about 40 ka B.P.(“B.P.”is short for “Before Present,“Present”refers to 1950 AD),is the most significant Heinrich event. The characterization of its transition characteristics and detailed structure is helpful to further understand the mechanism of millennial-scale abrupt climate events in the last glacial period. We reconstructed the intensity evolution of Asian summer monsoon with average resolution of 13 a from 40.77 ka B.P. to 37.17 ka B.P. based on 11 ²³⁰Th ages and 277 δ¹⁸O data derived from a stalagmite(SXG-3)at Shuixi Cave,Qianxi County,Guizhou Province. Our record captured the detailed structure of the HS4 event,showing three phages of change: In the first phase(from 39.97 to 39.13 ka B.P.),the stalagmite δ¹⁸O showed a positive excursion by 1.32‰ within 840±90 a,indicating that the summer monsoon weakened slowly,associated with the southward shift of the Intertropical Convergence Zone(ITCZ)and the rapid cooling in Greenland area;in the second phase(from 39.13 to 38.35 ka B.P.),the stalagmite δ¹⁸O was generally positive,with an average of -⁸.34‰. During this phase,the summer monsoon intensity reached the weakest point,while the South American monsoon reached the strongest point,corresponding to the ITCZ lingered at its southernmost position;in the third phase(from 38.35 to 37.59 ka B.P.),the stalagmite δ¹⁸O was gradually negative to -⁹.25‰ at 760±89 a,corresponding to the northward movement of the ITCZ and the rapid warming of Greenland area. The three-phase structure of the HS4 event recorded in Shuixi Cave is similar to that recorded in Xianyun Cave,Fujian Province,and corresponds to the changes in low-latitude hydrological cycle processes reflected by the NEEM(Northern Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling)Ice core ¹⁷O-excess. It also represents a “mirror image”of the stalagmite records of the Toca da Boa Vista(TBV)and Toca da Barrigude(TBR)caves in South America. The analysis results show that upon triggering the high latitude climate in the northern hemisphere,the north-south movement of the ITCZ caused by the continuous accumulation and subsequent release of heat in the tropical ocean and the southern hemisphere is the main cause of such three-stage change.
