The enigma of rare Quaternary oolites in the Indian and Pacific Oceans: A result of global oceanographic physicochemical conditions or a sampling bias?
Marine ooids are iconic indicators of shallow seawater carbonate saturation state, and their
formation has traditionally been ascribed to physicochemical processes. The Indo-Pacific …

Timing and pacing of Indonesian Throughflow restriction and its connection to Late Pliocene climate shifts
The Pliocene was characterized by a gradual shift of global climate toward cooler and drier
conditions. This shift fundamentally reorganized Earth's climate from the Miocene state …

Weakening of the South Asian summer monsoon linked to interhemispheric ice-sheet growth since 12 Ma
The evolution and driving mechanism of the South Asian summer monsoon (SASM) are still
poorly understood. We here present a 12-Myr long SASM record by analyzing the strontium …
