Abstract: The Loess-palaeosol profile was surveyed in detail and sampled systematically at the Tuojiawan site on the first river terrace in the upper Hanjiang valley. The stratigraphic and sedimentological characteristics, pedogenic modification characteristics and the profile structure were observed in the field. Magnetic susceptibility, particle-size distribution and optical luminescence dating(OSL) were analyzed in laboratory. The results showed that TJW profile recorded the environment features and evolution with the stratigraphic series on the first terrace from the bottom to the top was listed as fluvial gravel(T1-al1)→eolian loess and alluvial sand inter-beds(T1-al2)→Malan loess(L1)→transitional loess(Lt)→palaeosol(S0)→recent loess(L0)→modern soil(MS). Different degree of weathering intensity in different stratigraphic. The content of clay, clay/coarse silt ratio, magnetic susceptibility in the top of Malan loess were higher than those in the typical Malan loess. It was showed that the weathering intensity on the top of Malan loess (228~260 cm and 294~370 cm) was obviously higher than that on malan loess, close to the palaeosol(S0), belongs to the weak palaeosol(L1-S1 and L1-S2). The OSL age results showed that the two layers of weak palaeosol (L1-S1 and L1-S2) were deposited between 27.3 and 21.6 ka BP. TJW loess-palaeosol sequence recorded monsoonal climate change since Pleistocene. Including the cold and arid glacial and a short time the climate was warm and wet in the glacial period(27.3~21.6 ka BP), the gradually intensified southeast monsoon during the early Holocene periods, the strongest monsoon in the mid-Holocene, and the monsoon recession and the climate drying during the late Holocene.

Key words: Hanjiang River, grain size, weak palaeosol, climate change
