Foye Chi is a small lake developing in a cirque in the alpine belt of southern slope of Taibai Mountain which is the peak of the Qinling Mountain Range. A 70 cm deep pit was excavated on the desiccated floor of this lake and sediments were sampled from the pit’s wall. AMS 14C dating was performed for three samples from this sediment profile. For all the 56 samples, analysis of total organic carbon content (TOC) and carbon-nitrogen ratio (C/N) and measurements of low-frequency magnetic susceptibility (χ_lf) and anhysteretic remanent magnetization (ARM) were undertaken. So were analyses of particle-size and pollen. ARM/χ_lf was further calculated as well. A chronological framework was developed based on the dating results. Variations in TOC, C/N, χ_lf, ARM, ARM/χ_lf, mean particle-size and percentage of Quercus pollen of this sequence were interpreted and climatic and environmental changes occurring around Foye Chi since 5520 aBP were so preliminarily inferred. The climate and environment were generally cold and arid during 5520-3800 aBP and the coldest and driest during 5100-4300 aBP. During 3800-2300 aBP, the climate and environment have turned to be warm and humid. The climate and environment were even wetter during 2300-1300 aBP and warmer during 1300-700 aBP which might be the warmest phase of the last ~5500 years. During 700-500 aBP, the climate and environment tended to be cool and arid again. These climate-environment changes happening during the middle and late Holocene in alpine belt of Taibai Mountain are generally similar to the changes at some sites in the region influenced by the East Asian monsoon in China since these sites are all under the influence of East Asian monsoon.
