In this article we report a new and sensitive palaeoclimate proxy indicator-humification degrees of peat. Based on the comparison of humification degrees with other climate proxy records, such as δ~(13)C time series of the C. muiieensis remains cellulose in the same peat profile, we suggest that humification degrees of peat in Qinghai-Xizang Plateau can served as a palaeoclimate proxy indicator. The higher the humification degrees of peat, the warmer-wetter the climate; on the contrary, the lower the humification degrees, the colder-drier the climate. Due to the simple method of determination, humification degree of peat is worthy studying and applying further.
