Whether during past climate stages or into a progressively warming world, changes in
precipitation constitute a key component of climatic change. Quantitative proxies for palaeo …

The thick loess–paleosol succession of central China contains a detailed record of changes
in East Asian monsoon climate since the late Miocene Epoch. The alternating loess …

Correlations between loess–paleosol sequences in China and late Cenozoic deposits in
Japan suggest that the East Asian monsoon circulation experienced three large shifts during …

The magnetic susceptibility of loess and paleosols in central China represents a proxy
climate index closely related to past changes of precipitation and vegetation, and thus to …

Abstract The East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) is an important component of the global
climate system. A better understanding of EASM rainfall variability in the past can help …

Abstract China's Loess Plateau was formed under special conditions. The tectonic
movement, topographical characteristics, and monsoon patterns combined to create a …

The loess-paleosol sequence in Central China during the last 2.5 Ma is a good record of the
Asian monsoon variation, which could be considered as the concrete realization of global …

▪ Abstract This paper presents a general review of the recent research advances of the East
Asian paleomonsoon, based mainly on studies of the loess-soil sequences in the Chinese …

The rock magnetic properties of the Chinese loess and paleosols constitute a unique and
sensitive record of East Asian paleoclimate through the Quaternary Period. Systematic …

The variability and dynamics of the Asian monsoon (AM, hereafter indicates both of the
summer and winter monsoons.) at orbital and millennial timescales has attracted wide …
