Are you interested in the Asian monsoon? Speleothems? Did you always wonder what really happened to the winter monsoon during the Holocene??? 🧐🧐 Look no further!! ⬇️⬇️⬇️😎 https://t.co/OkZ3nmmCxL

Check this out!! 😍🎉

Out today in @NatureComms! We show that correcting a stalagmite oxygen isotope record for the effects of prior calcite precipitation (PCP) improves agreement with regional records and climate models. https://t.co/O05wZppIuj

Call for abstracts! Five days left to submit. Check out our session on organic materials in carbonates: https://t.co/ycgpDTCrBY

Excited to announce that I will co-convene a session at #AGU2024 with @AnnabelWlf. Our session (PP023) explores the potential of #organics in terrestrial carbonates for #paleoenvironmental reconstructions. Plz consider submitting #Speleothem #Carbonates #Geoscience #Biomarkers

🚨Call for abstracts! Third year of our #paleoSEA session at #AGU24, and this year we are going bigger (merged with OS)! If you are going to D.C. this December and have interesting insights into paleoclimate of the #SoutheastAsia. Please consider submit abstract to our session!

And finally, we can announce that the final version of the SISALv3 database and paper are published! 🎉 Paper in ESSD gives lots of context and synthesis of what is included. We look forward to seeing the DB in use. @PAGES_IPO

Check out in our new paper how anthropogenic forcing is increasing droughts in mid-east Brasil, which was recorded in isotopes and trace elements in speleothem and cave monitoring data #uni_tue #caves #paleoclimate #isotopes https://t.co/jd567COHZq

Changes in vegetation cover in the Western #Caucasus during the Last Glacial Maximum may have led to a reduction in refugia for early humans at high altitudes. New paper by: @Annabel_Wlf et al.!👇 https://t.co/1uTs6wLaqG @ageofrocks @SFMBreitenbach @OlaKwiecien3 @cavesandclimate

Happ this new multi proxy speleothem record is out! Thanks everyone! @cavesandclimate @OlaKwiecien3 @SFMBreitenbach @antonosyan95 @JM_McCormack @Vanessa18593361 @CommsEarth

LGM caused much harsher climate conditions in high altitudes compared to lowlands in the Caucasus. We show that changes in seasonal precipitation and vegetation were spatially diverse allowing for the formation of refugia. https://t.co/07SdeeE6O4

Looking for Friday #AGU23 presentations? Come check presentations on paleoclimate of Monsoon Asia and the Indo-Pacific! Thrilled to be convening with @AnnabelWlf @TigerBenjamin and others. Also we're looking for additional OSPA judges so please sign up! @AGU_PaleoECRs

It’s finally here! The second chapter of my PhD work with @Begoh3 just got published. We highlight key sustainability issues from disparities in emissions sources & levels from different palm oil production systems. Link 👇🏾 @GCRF_TRADE_Hub @RSPOtweets https://t.co/nFLZxGobha

A belated but very exciting update: our newest database SISALv3 is out! paper in preprint at ESSD: https://t.co/B13UuExDsD Besides a significant update to the number of d18O and d13C records, we also have newly added trace element data. Please share and comment!

New paper by @AnnabelWlf et al. shows evolution of Southeast #AsianMonsoon in the #Holocene using #speleothem records.

Further, we found that our oxygen isotope record was affected by cave internal processes, which hindered a regional comparison with other speleothem records. We show that applying a correction for these processes allows us to extract the original signal of rainwater isotopes.

Our main conclusion: the regional component (atmospheric circulation; a) of the monsoon shows an inverse relation between winter and summer driven by insolation in the northern hemisphere. Local rainfall (b) shows coherence, forced by changes in the Indian and Pacific Ocean.

The evolution of winter and summer monsoon in Southeast Asia has been debated for decades. Here, we present a 8ka BP stalagmite from Vietnam, recording autumn/winter rainfall. We find that it is crucial to differentiate between the local and the regional component of the monsoon.
