2 Chapter 2 assesses observed large-scale changes in climate system drivers, key climate
indicators and 3 principal modes of variability. Chapter 3 considers model performance and …

Wet summers and dry winters are an essential feature of monsoon climates, but
quantification of change in wet-dry seasonality through time is very challenging because …

Investigation of summer extreme precipitation during past warm periods may deepen our
understanding of its behavior in current and future warmer climates. In this study, we …

Accurately reconstructing the evolution of the Asian monsoon is predicated on
understanding the impact of temperature, precipitation, and tectonic paleogeography on …

Global warming will exacerbate the damages and losses caused by drought and
significantly affect human society and economic development. Future drought outlook is of …

The cold and warm intervals during the Plio‐Pleistocene provide an opportunity to assess
the response of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) to different levels of global warming. In …

Chemical weathering of continental silicates is a crucial geological process in regulating
Earth's long-term climate and participating in global carbon cycle. The increasing aridity and …

Investigating the past evolution of the northern boundary of the East Asian summer monsoon
(EASM) is important in understanding the East Asian climate of the past, present, and future …

During the rainy season, many slopes are eroded by precipitation on the China Loess
Plateau (CLP). Hence, Guar gum (GG) is used to stabilize the topsoil of loess slopes to …

The northern fringe area of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) between arid and
semiarid regions is a fragile eco-environment zone and ecological transition zone, and it is …
