DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2019.01.045
Abstract: Maritime Continent (MC) convection drives zonal and meridional climate modes, including the Australasian monsoon system, but its role in past global climate change remains uncertain. Here we use speleothem oxygen isotope (δ O) records from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2021.117217
Abstract: Abstract El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is one of the most important modes of variability in the climate system. However, ENSO instrumental records are too short to characterize its natural variability at long-term timescales. Paleoclimate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2119813119
Abstract: Significance Understanding how people have shaped landscapes requires detailed information on past changes in climate, vegetation, fire, and land use. The environmental and human history of four sites along the eastern Andes of southern South… read more here.
