Responses of the East Asian Summer Monsoon in the Low-Latitude South China Sea to High-Latitude Millennial-Scale Climatic Changes During the Last Glaciation: Evidence From a High-Resolution Clay Mineralogical Record
International audience High‐resolution clay mineral assemblage combined with Nd and Sr isotopic compositions of Core MD12‐3434 located in the northern South China Sea was investigated to reveal terrigenous sediment response to the East Asian monsoon evolution during the last glaciation.
