Palaeoclimate records in East Asia offer significant potential to further our understanding of monsoon dynamics and can serve as a link between North Atlantic and tropical climate systems. The sedimentary core from Lake Kushu, Rebun Island, provides the first high-resolution palaeoclimate record fro...
