Based on high resolution palynological investigations and AMS14C dating, the continuous
lacustrine sediments contained in Yili Valley, Xinjiang provide an opportunity to reconstruct …

The evolution of Holocene moisture in semiarid and arid regions of Central Asia is key to
understanding changes in current and future water resources, and has been a hotly debated …

Millions of people in the geopolitically important region of Central Asia depend on water
from snow-and glacier-melt driven international rivers, most of all the Syr Darya and Amu …

Loess contributes considerably to understanding the interactions between dust cycles and
climate change. However, systematic and regional‐scale reconstructions of variations in the …

Several firn/ice cores were recovered from the Siberian Altai (Belukha plateau), central Tien
Shan (Inilchek glacier) and the Tibetan Plateau (Zuoqiupu glacier, Bomi) from 1998 to 2003 …

Measurements of elemental carbon (EC), water‐insoluble organic carbon (WIOC), and
inorganic ions from a very high resolution snow/firn core retrieved from a glacier on the …

Due to lack of reliable proxies from the Westerlies-dominant region, the strength change of
Northern Hemisphere Westerlies remains poorly understood. The aim of this study is to …

Reconstructing glacial chronologies with consistent methods is critical for efforts to examine
the timing and pattern of past climate change. Cosmogenic 10 Be surface exposure dating …

Understanding the spatial–temporal changes in glacier mass balance and associated
drivers on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is important for predicting future water supplies and …

Understanding Holocene paleoclimate in arid Central Asia (ACA) is helpful for predicting
future climate. However, Holocene climate patterns and their forcing mechanisms across …
