DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2019.01.003
Abstract: Abstract Distally dispersed tephra layers have become an important tool in the investigation of palaeoenvironmental and archaeological records across the globe. They offer possibilities for the synchronisation and improved chronological control in those records to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2019.103032
Abstract: Abstract The glacial-interglacial transitions of ice ages are associated with large, rapid changes in climate, which potentially can be reconstructed from stratigraphic profiles of the chemical index of alteration (CIA). Here, we present a case… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.04.007
Abstract: Abstract Exploring the interplay between the mid-latitude Westerlies and East Asian monsoon systems is crucial for revealing the mechanisms and processes behind the aridification of the central Asian interior. In this study, a high-resolution acid-dissolved… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.08.012
Abstract: Abstract The Qinling Mountain Range (QMR) in central China encompasses innumerable Paleolithic sites. The hominin settlement in the QMR is comparable with that in the Nihewan Basin in northern China. The recorded information on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2020.106634
Abstract: Abstract The Last Glacial-Interglacial Transition (ca 16–8 ka BP) in north-west Europe is an important period of climatic change where millennial-scale climatic evolution led to environmental reorganisation. Imprinted upon these long-term changes are a series… read more here.

Inconsistent change in surface hydrography of the eastern Arabian Sea during the last four glacial–interglacial intervals
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Geological Magazine"
DOI: 10.1017/s0016756819001122
Abstract: Abstract The eastern Arabian Sea is influenced by both the advection of upwelled water from the western Arabian Sea and winter convective mixing. Therefore, sediments collected from the eastern Arabian Sea can help to understand… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1708174115
Abstract: Significance In observational data, we find striking and globally coherent increases of atmospheric dust concentrations and deposition during the coldest phases of glacial−interglacial climate cycles. As shown by our simulations with a climate−carbon cycle model,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/min13060712
Abstract: The Sturtian (720–670 Ma) glacial–interglacial transition period was an important interval for sedimentary manganese metallogenesis, including the Mn oxide deposit in the Otjosondu region in Namibia and Mn carbonate deposits in the Datangpo Formation in… read more here.
