East Asian Winter Monsoon records from the mud area,northern shelf of the South China Sea over the last 3 ka

Abstract

Abstract: Environment Sensitive Grain-Size Component (ESGSC) extracted from grain-size data of core ZJ2 from the mud area, northern shelf of the South China Sea, can be used to indicate the variations of East Asian Winter Monsoon (EAWM),with high (low) content/ mean-size of ESGSC denoting the strong (weak) EAWM. Combined with AMS ¹⁴C datings,core ZJ2 implies 8 strong EAWM periods over the last 3 ka, which corresponds well to climatic change records in Greenland ice core and nearby area. The result shows regional impact of the global climatic change.

Key words: northern shelf of the South China Sea, mud area, East Asian Winter Monsoon(EAWM), coastal current, Environment Sensitive Grain-Size Component( ESGSC)
