Temperature variation in Guangdong Province of China between 1956 and 1990 was investigated. Simple linear trend analysis was used to examine the temporal trend and the climatic departure index (CDI) was employed to study the regional variability
. These results agree with an increase in the regional aridity, since 500,000 yr, deduced from the study of the eolian flux in the northwestern pacific downwind from China.
Variation of Rb/Sr ratios in the loess-paleosol sequences of Central China during the last 130,000 years and their implications for monsoon paleoclimatology
Rb, Sr, and magnetic susceptibility have been measured in the last interglacial-glacial loess profiles at Luochuan and Huanxian, central China. A high degree of similarity between the parameters in both profiles suggests that variations of Rb/Sr
