Abstract: The global change study is one of the most spectacular and interesting environment scientific questions in the 1990's. The message of Global Change stores in tree rings, ice core, loess, underground water, lake sediment and deep sea sediment, all these proxies record the information of global change. With the advances in stable isotope techniques, the isotopic tracer records the message of climatic variation and becomes a powerful tool that can understand paleoenvironment reconstruction and modern environment changing.

Key words: isotope, global change, tree ring, lake sediment, ice core

摘要： 全球变化研究是90年代以来最为引人注目和关切的环境科学问题之一。全球环境变化的信息储存于树轮、湖泊、冰芯、黄土、地下水和海洋沉积物等载体中，随着稳定同位素技术的发展，同位素示踪剂指示环境变化的信息，成为了解古环境再造和现代环境信息变化的一个强有力的工具。
