“…may imply a substantial enhancement of the circulation system that carried dust from the Tibetan Plateau, and strong intensification and expansion of the dust source area at that time. Results from the Zoige Basin in the eastern Tibetan Plateau also suggested a significant climate transition to increasing drought on the plateau at 500 ka (Xue et al, 1998). In addition, this drying event has also been observed in some important loess sections in the CLP (Fig.…”

“…with an estimated elevation increase of $800 m. There exists an accelerated uplifting periods for the east Tibetan Plateau since 800 ka B.P., and the depositional rate of the Zoige Basin began to rise from 0.23 to 0.47 mm/a during 800-530 ka B.P. (Xue et al, 1998). Based on these, we attribute tentatively the drying event recorded by the Chengdu Clay at the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and the loess deposit in the CLP mainly to the accelerated uplift of the Tibetan Plateau.…”

“…It occurred between 1.2–0.6 Ma and uplifted the plateau to 3000 m in an average height, which is a critical height for glacial development. The plateau has therefore undergone glaciations since the Kunhuang movement as well as climate change [ 31 , 32 ]. Besides, haplotype C4, C5 and C7 differentiated at 0.40 Ma ( Figure 2 A).…”

Thlaspi arvense is a well-known annual farmland weed with worldwide distribution, which can be found from sea level to above 4000 m high on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP). In this paper, a phylogeographic history of T. arvense including 19 populations from China was inferred by using three chloroplast (cp) DNA segments (trnL-trnF, rpl32-trnL and rps16) and one nuclear (n) DNA segment (Fe-regulated transporter-like protein, ZIP). A total of 11 chloroplast haplotypes and six nuclear alleles were identified, and haplotypes unique to the QTP were recognized (C4, C5, C7 and N4). On the basis of molecular dating, haplotypes C4, C5 and C7 have separated from others around 1.58 Ma for cpDNA, which corresponds to the QTP uplift. In addition, this article suggests that the T. arvense populations in China are a mixture of diverged subpopulations as inferred by hT/vT test (hT ≤ vT, cpDNA) and positive Tajima’s D values (1.87, 0.05 < p < 0.10 for cpDNA and 3.37, p < 0.01 for nDNA). Multimodality mismatch distribution curves and a relatively large shared area of suitable environmental conditions between the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) as well as the present time recognized by MaxEnt software reject the sudden expansion population model.

Comparative study of long lake records in different regions in China can provide some significant information about the regional differentiation of the environment and Asian monsoon activities. However, intensively studied lacustrine cores with a span of a few hundred thousand years are very rare in China. The available examples are only three long cores from the Zoigê basin in the eastern Qinghai‐Tibet plateau, the Qaidam basin in the northern Qinghai‐Tibet plateau and the Dianchi basin in the Yunnan plateau respectively. The results show that the regional environmental differentiation since the Mid‐Pleistocene involved three stages, i.e. 780–480, 480–160, 160–0 ka B.P. In each of the three stages different regions of China had their own distinctive environmental characteristics, indicating that the uplift of the Qinghai‐Tibet plateau played a major role in the environmental differentiation process.
