Abstract Perchlorate (ClO4−) in polar ice preserves past chlorine oxidation chemistry; however, multi‐centennial Antarctic ClO4− records and the mechanisms controlling their variability remain poorly constrained. Here, we present the first 400‐year (1616−2016) ClO4− record from an Antarctic ice core, revealing two regimes separated around 1980.

Abstract Intracontinental deformation records how early Eocene India–Asia collisional stress propagated into continental interiors. How rapidly compression reached the far field, and whether coeval Paleo‐Pacific slab dynamics contributed, remain debated. The Longzhong Basin, ∼1,900 km north of the collisional zone, provides a key test.

Abstract Ambient aerosols exert growing influences on atmospheric radiative forcing, precipitation, and climate change over the Tibetan Plateau (TP), yet observational constraints on their chemical characteristics remain sparse in this high‐altitude region.

Thermodynamic Control of Global Seasonal Snow Decline
Abstract Seasonal snowfall is declining globally, yet the relative roles of precipitation variability versus warming‐induced phase transitions remain poorly quantified. We develop a physically based attribution framework that decomposes snowfall trends (1983–2023) into hydrological (precipitation‐driven) and thermodynamic (phase‐driven) components ...

Glacier‐Climate Feedbacks Modulate Last Glacial Maximum Dust Cycle Over the Third Pole
Abstract Geological records indicate only a modest Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) increase in dust deposition over the Third Pole (TP), in contrast to the order‐of‐magnitude rise at high latitudes. Existing climate simulations, which generally prescribe present‐day or no TP glaciers, have struggled to reproduce this muted response.
