摘要:
The evolution of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) during the Holocene has long been of significant interest. Knowledge of past EASM variability not only increases our understanding of monsoon dynamics on a long timescale, but it also provides an environmental and climatic background for research into Chinese cultural development. However, the timing of the EASM maximum remains controversial. The popular concept of an ???early Holocene maximum??? is mainly based on speleothem ??
