“…There are several proxies which were introduced over the past two decades (Royer et al, www.intechopen.com 2001,2006); the δ 13 C of pedogenic minerals (Cerling, 1991;Yapp & Poths, 1992); the stomatal densities and indices in plants (van der Burgh et al, 1993;McElwain & Chaloner, 1995); the δ 13 C of long-chained alkenones in haptophytic algae (Pagani et al, 1999); the δ 11 B of marine carbonate (Pearson & Palmer, 1999;Pagani et al, 2005b); and the δ 13 C of liverworts (Fletcher et al, 2005). Some of the proxy records including soil carbonates Sanyal et al, 2004), palaeosols (Rettallack, 1995;Thomas et al, 2002, microfossils (Phadtare et al, 1994), pollens (Hoorn et al, 2000), palaeomagnetic record (Sangode & Bloemendal, 2004) and general sedimentation parameter where precipitation pattern have been used to decipher the changes in the Indian monsoon strength. In the following sections we have provided overviews of monsoon variability.…”
