Tibetan ice core evidence for an intensification of the East Asian jet stream since the 1870s
Abstract The subtropical jet stream plays a significant role in the climate system and there exists evidence that it has intensified since the 1950s. However, the lack of upper‐air observations before this time makes it difficult to place this trend in a longer term context. Here, we show that a Tib...
