The decline of ancient societies has been often associated with hydroclimate instabilities. In
this paper, we report phytolith records from the Yangtze River Delta of China, to reconstruct …

We present a high-resolution (sub-decadal to centennial), multi-proxy reconstruction of
aeolian input and changes in palaeohydrological conditions based on a 13000 Yr record …

The relationship between the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau and the aridification of eastern
Asia during the middle to late Eocene is still controversial, primarily due to the lack of high …

Abstract The East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) affects rainfall variability and
consequently terrestrial ecosystems in the densely populated Asian region. Understanding …

Abstract Knowledge of the variability of the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) is crucial for
deciphering hydroclimate dynamics in the Asian Monsoon region during the Holocene. In …

The reconstruction of variations in effective moisture over the past millennium are important
for assessing potential future climatic trends in environmentally-sensitive arid Central Asia …

Past vegetation responses to climate change in semi-arid and arid regions are not yet well
understood, especially in northeastern China. This study provides new evidence for long …

Abstract The East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) is a key component of the Asian
Monsoon system affecting regional precipitation in East Asia and thus human culture …

Climatic reconstruction from peat deposits is an important aspect of Quaternary research.
Previous studies of the peatlands in the Mu Us Desert in northern China have focused on …

The reconstruction of past climates and vegetation can provide valuable information for
understanding the mechanisms of the variability of the East Asian summer monsoon in …
