Pre-Quaternary decoupling between Asian aridification and high dust accumulation rates

Theories of late Cenozoic climate cooling assume that central Asian aridification and high dust accumulation rates in the Chinese Loess Plateau and the North Pacific Ocean are genetically related. On the basis of detailed sediment provenance analysis, we show that high dust accumulation rates in the Chinese Loess Plateau and the North Pacific Ocean during the late Miocene-Pliocene were mainly c...

Paleoclimate Modeling, Pre-quaternary

Introduction Pre-Quaternary paleoclimate modeling is the science of simulating climate change over the earliest 99.9% of Earth’s history using numerical models of the climate system. The record of pre-Quaternary climate documents enormous climate swings with global ice-covered and ice-free end members. A number of climate factors shaped Quaternary and pre-Quaternary paleoclimate on timescales r...
