“…As an important component of the Earth's climate system, East Asian monsoon (EAM) has received intensive attention because its variability greatly impacts livelihood of over two billion people. Studies based on stalagmites [ Wang et al , 2005], lacustrine sediments [ Yancheva et al , 2007], tree‐rings [ Yang et al , 2000; Wang and Zhang , 2011] and historical documents [ Ge et al , 2004] have revealed a general weakening trend of EAM and a series of abrupt changes in the EAM intensity during the Holocene [ Xiao et al , 2006; Wang et al , 2011]. These changes on different timescales correspond to a lowering Northern Hemisphere summer insolation and are likely linked to abrupt North Atlantic climate events [ Bond et al , 1997; Wang et al , 2005; Zhang et al , 2008].…”

“…These changes on different timescales correspond to a lowering Northern Hemisphere summer insolation and are likely linked to abrupt North Atlantic climate events [ Bond et al , 1997; Wang et al , 2005; Zhang et al , 2008]. Compared to terrestrial archives, marine sediment records of the EAM on decadal to centennial timescale are sparse [ Jian et al , 2000; Wang et al , 2011]. Because the EAM is driven by air‐pressure differences between the Pacific and Asian landmass, insufficient data on the ocean climate impedes our understanding of the operational mechanism of the EAM and the prediction of future climate change in this region.…”

Most of the temperature reconstructions for the past two millennia are based on proxy data from various sites on land. Here we present a bidecadal resolution record of sea surface temperature (SST) in Southern Okinawa Trough for the past ca. 2700 years by analyzing tetraether lipids of planktonic archaea in the ODP Hole 1202B, a site under the strong influence of Kuroshio Current and East Asian monsoon. The reconstructed SST anomalies generally coincided with previously reported late Holocene climate events, including the Roman Warm Period, Sui‐Tang dynasty Warm Period, Medieval Warm Period, Current Warm Period, Dark Age Cold Period and Little Ice Age. However, the Medieval Warm Period usually thought to be a historical analogue for the Current Warm Period has a mean SST of 0.6–0.8°C lower than that of the Roman Warm Period and Sui‐Tang dynasty Warm Period. Despite an increase since 1850 AD, the mean SST in the 20th century is still within the range of natural variability during the past 2700 years. A close correlation of SST in Southern Okinawa Trough with air temperature in East China, intensity of East Asian monsoon and the El‐Niño Southern Oscillation index has been attributed to the fluctuations in solar output and oceanic‐atmospheric circulation.

“…The hydrological evolution of the ECS during the Holocene has been reconstructed using the assemblages δ 18 O, δ 13 C and Mg/Ca of planktic foraminifera and $U_{37}^{K'} $ in marine cores (e.g. Jian et al , 1996, 2000; Li et al , 1997; Ujiié and Ujiié, 1999; Ujiié et al , 2003; Ijiri et al , 2005; Sun et al , 2005; Lin et al , 2006; Chang et al , 2008; Li et al , 2009; Kubota et al , 2010; Wang et al , 2011). Jian et al (2000) generated sea‐surface temperature (SST) records for northern and southern Okinawa Trough sites based on planktic foraminiferal assemblages and concluded that the variation in the SST difference between these two sites (ΔSST) showed a 1500‐year periodicity.…”

The East China Sea (ECS) responds to changes in the strength of the Kuroshio and East Asian monsoon activity. Multidecadal resolution records of the palaeotemperature indices ${\rm TEX}_{{\rm 86}}^{{\rm H}} $ and $U_{37}^{K'} $ from core KY07‐04 PC‐1 show that the hydrology of the ECS responded to variability in the East Asian winter monsoon. Unlike Mg/Ca‐derived sea surface temperatures, which show neither warming nor cooling trends during the Holocene, the ${\rm TEX}_{{\rm 86}}^{{\rm H}} $ record showed a general warming trend at a rate of 0.2°C ka−1. This warming was attributable to shrinkage of the Yellow Sea Central Cold Water and/or weaker winter cooling of the surface water. The ${\rm TEX}_{{\rm 86}}^{{\rm H}} $ record indicated a centennial‐scale variability with an ∼1°C amplitude superimposed on the warming trend that reflected changes in the East Asian winter monsoon and/or the Kuroshio. Temperature minima appeared at ca. 3.0, 4.7, 6.2, 7.9 and 9.0 ka, and spectral analysis of the last 7 ka revealed significant peaks with periodicities of approximately 210, 250, and 440 years that were close to those observed in solar radiation. The reconstructed winter monsoon variability is consistent with Chinese documentary records for the last two millennia. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…Studies have shown that both the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) and the KC were strengthened during the LIA, which enhanced the YSWC and brought more warm water into the YS. This warming compensated for the declining sea surface temperature (SST) caused by climatic cooling, and thus, the SST was relatively high (Huang, Fan, Xu, Tong, & Su, ; Jian et al, ; Wang et al, ; Zhang et al, ). In addition, Gillson () showed that DF cycles profoundly impact fishery production by altering species richness and diversity and rapidly changing the physical and chemical conditions in which fish live.…”

Long‐term variation in the abundance of Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii) from the Yellow Sea in the western North Pacific and its relation to climate over the past 590 years

A qualitative understanding of the long‐term variation in the population dynamics of Yellow Sea (YS) herring is particularly important for clarifying the evolutionary processes and driving mechanisms of the YS large marine ecosystem. Unfortunately, because of a lack of long‐term, continuous, and simultaneous monitoring data, the specific driving processes and mechanisms of climate effects on the population dynamics of YS herring remain largely unknown. In response to this scientific issue, we preliminarily propose the idea of reconstructing long‐term changes in YS herring abundance over the past 590 years (AD 1417–2004) based on historical documents and attempt to explore the impacts of climate on the population. Our results show that YS herring abundance maintained at a relatively high level from AD 1417 to 1870 (during the Little Ice Age); in contrast, the population declined significantly from AD 1870 to 2004 at different rates. In addition, we also found that there were strong relationships between the population abundance of YS herring and the Pacific decadal oscillation (PDO) and drought/flood cycles. We suggest that the fluctuations in YS herring abundance may be influenced by ocean–climatic circulation shifts throughout the North Pacific, especially the PDO.
