Joint insolation and ice sheet/CO2 forcing on northern china precipitation during pliocene warmth
We demonstrate that the precipitation record on the Chinese Loess Plateau during the middle Piacenzian (3.264–3.025 Ma) has strong 20-kyr precessional cycles, challenging past knowledge about East Asian monsoon variations at the orbital timescales.
