Drivers for asynchronous patterns of dust accumulation in central and eastern Asia and in Greenland during the Last Glacial Maximum
We collected 143 loess optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ages between 10 ka and
30 ka from Central Asia (CA), and analyzed their probability density functions (PDFs). The …
