Abstract: Oxygen isotope records of five stalagmites from Hulu Cave near Nanjing bear a remarkable resemblance to oxygen isotope records from Greenland ice cores, suggesting that East Asian Monsoon intensity changed in concert with Greenland temperature between 11,000 and 75,000 years before the present (yr. B.P.). Between 11,000 and 30,000 yr. B.P., the timing of changes in the monsoon, as established with 230Th dates, generally agrees with the timing of temperature changes from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project Two (GIS… Show more

“…A record of sedimentation in Laguma Pallcacocha, southern Ecuador, which is strongly influenced by ENSO variability, suggests that a strong increase in ENSO warm events and frequency took place during the late Holocene [35]. Therefore, the climate inferred from fossil pollen records in our study generally correlates with the East Asian summer monsoon and ENSO intensity records as discussed above: a moist phase during the early Holocene followed by a gradual decrease in [32,33]; (e) stalagmite δ 18 O record for Gunung Buda, Borneo [34].…”

“…River discharge is to some extent controlled by the precipitation [17,[26][27][28]. Meanwhile, previous studies suggest that this region's humidity has a great relationship with the monsoon and the ENSO system [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. As strong summer insolation in the northern hemisphere during the early Holocene induced strong land-ocean pressure and temperature gradients and increased onshore moist air flow during the summer, this enhanced the Asian summer monsoon [30][31][32][33].…”

“…In addition, loess archives provided similar evidence, such as fine grain sizes accumulated during MIS5, MIS3c and MIS3a (Ding et al, 1999), thus, implying a strengthening in intensity of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) and a declining winter monsoon circulation. It was also confirmed by δ 18 O of stalagmites recorded in the East Asian area (Wang et al, 2001. The Qarhan Salt Lake is located in the eastern Qaidam Basin of the NE TP, just beyond the northern limit of the modern ASM influence (Winkler and Wang, 1993).…”
