Monsoon versus uplift in southwestern China : Late Pliocene climate in Yuanmou Basin, Yunnan

, 2011
Yuanmou Basin of Yunnan, SW China, is a famous locality with hominids, hominoids, mammals and plant fossils. Based on the published megaflora and palynoflora data from Yuanmou Basin, the climate of Late Pliocene is reconstructed using the Coexistence ...

Obliquity-paced summer monsoon from the Shilou red clay section on the eastern Chinese Loess Plateau

Open Geosciences
The red clay of the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) is an important geological archive for understanding the variability in the late Neogene East Asian monsoon.

East Asian climate evolution during the Cenozoic: A review from the modeling perspective

Fundamental Research
The East Asian climate evolution during the Cenozoic era is of great importance in paleoclimate research, a fascinating topic for paleoclimatologists with efforts in both geological reconstructions and modeling studies.

Waves of range dynamics and gene flow characterize the biogeographic history of Litsea elongata, a dominant tree in East Asian evergreen broadleaved forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Evergreen broadleaved forests (EBLFs) represent an iconic vegetation type in subtropical montane East Asia, but they are experiencing intensifying anthropogenic pressure and increasing habitat fragmentation. Here, using a dominant and widespread tree species characteristic of East Asian EBLFs, we examine its phylogeographic history and evaluate what it

Reconstruction of the East Asian monsoon variability since the mid-Holocene from the Pearl River estuary, southern China [PDF]

, 2009
The principal aim of this thesis is to reconstruct East Asian Monsoon (EAM) variability during the mid-Holocene, developing a relatively new proxy of bulk organic carbon isotopic signature (δ13C).

The response of AUSM to precession forcing and its relation to EASM and EAWM

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
The East Asian monsoon (EAM) and the Australian monsoon (AUM), which constitute the two subsystems of the Asian-Australian monsoon system, are dynamically linked through cross-equatorial flows while also responding distinctly to external forcings ...

Biofuels Reserve Controlled Wildfire Regimes Since the Last Deglaciation: A Record From Gonghai Lake, North China

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
Wildfire activity is an important activity in evolution of vegetation and carbon cycling. Whether wet weather will suppress wildfire or promote them by increasing fuel reserves during the Holocene is not clear. We obtained a record of black carbon from a

A multimodel intercomparison study of variable‐resolution global models with grid refinement over the Arctic and Antarctic

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We document the protocol and first results from the first ever coordinated multimodel variable‐resolution experiment set with refinement over the polar regions. We find that the refinement generally yields model‐dependent effects. The most consistent improvement is an amelioration of the upper‐level cold bias in the polar regions that translates into ...

Image1_Sedimentary Dynamics of the Central South Yellow Sea Revealing the Relation Between East Asian Summer and Winter Monsoon Over the Past 6000 years.JPEG

, 2021
The mud areas of East Asian marginal seas record considerable information about regional environmental evolution. However, debate continues regarding the relative importance of the major factors in regional sedimentary dynamics, i.e., the East Asian ...

Characterization of synoptic environment for mesoscale convective systems over South Korea using ERA5 reanalysis data

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In this study, the synoptic conditions for modes of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) in South Korea are generalized based on composite analysis. The preferred precipitation region, synoptic patterns, moisture transport, sea surface temperature and thermodynamic and dynamic instabilities are characterized according to four modes: convective cells (CC)
