Abstract

Abstract

Along with the frequent occurrence of extreme weather events in the recent years, it is very urgent to deal with the events. The meteorological records are only several tens to hundred years, it is hard for us to research the extreme weather events clearly, so the authors point out using the stalagmite to reconstruct interannual-interdecadal extreme weather events. We hope other researchers can pay attention to it. Examples of reconstructing the extreme weather events with stalagmites are analyzed and summarized in the paper, which proving that it is in favor of recording the extreme weather events for stalagmite because of the faster growth of cave stalagmite and the existence of symbolic structure and texture in the stalagmite. According to the progress of extreme weather event research, the authors propose to construct precise age ruler, search for stalagmite with relatively fast growth rate and special structure, improve the sampling resolution, use other records to confirm the extreme weather events which will helpful for confirming the extreme events recorded by stalagmites. And the authors also point out aragonite stalagmites may be good materials for extreme weather event record.
