The stable oxygen isotope (δ18O) composition of ancient teak log coffins captures the Asian monsoon 2000 years ago in northwestern Thailand

The past climate in northwestern Thailand remains insufficiently understood because of the limitation of climate proxies. We present a new record of paleoclimate activity during 2050–1551 years BP (before the present), based on the analysis of the oxygen isotope ratios (δ18O) of tree-ring cellulose in ancient teak log coffins excavated from Namjang ...
