Modern precipitation variability over East China is known to be characterized by meridional
tripole and dipole structures, linked to atmosphere and ocean dynamics. As the instrumental …

The precipitation variability associated with the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) has
profound societal implications. Here, we use precisely dated and seasonally-resolved …

Recent studies indicated that the spatial pattern and temporal variability of summer rainfall
over eastern China are well correlated with the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO). Here we …

The centennial-scale variation of the East Asian Summer Monsoon (EASM) circulation has a
long-term impact on regional ecosystems, agriculture and water resources. However, the …

A lack of agreement between stalagmite records of the centennial-to decadal-scale Asian
summer monsoon (ASM) variability since the mid Holocene limited our understanding of …

An 11-cm long stalagmite (ZZ12) collected from Zhenzhu cave, Tiangui Mountain, northwest
of the North China Plain (NCP) has been measured by 230 Th/U, AMS 14 C and 210 Pb …

Identification of the periodic variability of precipitation is of paramount importance for rainfall
modeling and forecasting, but it is also a challenge. In this article, we (1) identify the periodic …

In southeastern China (SEC), the precipitation amount produced by the East Asian summer
monsoon (EASM) is almost equivalent to that during the non-summer monsoon (NSM) …

We use measurements of recent decades, 1500-yr proxy data, and millennium model
simulations with a variety of climate facings to study the temporal and spatial variability of …

The seasonal north-south migration of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) defines the
tropical rain belt (TRB), a region of enormous terrestrial and marine biodiversity and home to …
