Millennial-scale trends in west Pacific warm pool hydrology since the last glacial maximum

Article Abstract:

Three absolutely dated oxygen isotope records are presented from stalagmites in northern Borneo that has reflected changes in west Pacific warm pool hydrology over the past 27,000 years. The studies have shown that the tropical Pacific hydrological cycle is sensitive to high-latitude climate processes in both hemispheres, as well as to external radiative forcing, and that it might play a central role in abrupt climate change events.

El Nino/Southern Oscillation and tropical Pacific climate during the last millennium

Article Abstract:

Fossil-coral oxygen isotopic records from Palmyra Island in the tropical Pacific Ocean to provide 30-150 year windows of tropical Pacific climate variability within the last 1,100 years are represented. Study states that majority of variability of El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) over the last millennium may have arisen from dynamics internal to ENSO system itself.

Millennial- and orbital-scale changes in the East Asian monsoon over the past 224,000 years

Article Abstract:

An absolute-dated oxygen isotope record from the Chinese cave is studied to explain the millennial- and orbital-scale changes that have been taking place in the East Asian monsoon over the past 224,000 years.
