The Mituosi(MTS) profile in Yunxian, Hubei of China was served to investigate pedostratigraphy and sedimentary characteristics of the first river terrace of the upper Hanjiang river. Magnetic susceptibility, grainsize distribution, loss on ignition and Rb/Sr were analyzed. The MTS profile recorded the environmental evolution with the stratigraphic series from bottom to top: Malan Loess (L₁)→ Transitional Loess (L_t)→ Paleosol (S₀)→ Holocene Loess (L₀)→ Top soil (TS). Different stratigraphic units show different degree of weathering intensity, with S₀>L_t>L₀>L₁. The weathering intensity change of MTS profile indicates the climate change since Malan loess accumulation. It was cold and arid with gradually intensified southeast monsoon during the early Holocene. The strongest monsoon occurred in the midHolocene. During the late Holocene, the climate became drying with the monsoon recession. A cold climate event was recorded in MTS profile, dating to around 6.48 Ka BP (OSL dating).
