A multi‐model analysis of the East Asian monsoon changes in the Medieval Climate Anomaly and Little Ice Age
Abstract Using nine climate model simulations from the Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project Phase 3, the changes in the East Asian summer and winter monsoon, together with their associated atmospheric circulations in the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA) and Little Ice Age (LIA), were investi...
