Abstract:Rainfall over the Asian continent during the mid-Holocene was higher than today as shown by the rainfall proxy records. During the mid-Holocene, increased rainfall over the Asian Continent has been suggested to be associated with the strengthening of the Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM) following a sharper continent-ocean thermal gradient. This study examined multi-model variation between changes of the continent-ocean thermal gradient and the increased rainfall over Asia during the mid-Holocene as compared to the p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
