Pacific sea surface temperature forcing dominates orbital forcing of the Early Holocene monsoon
  • Pacific sea surface temperature forcing dominates orbital forcing of the Early Holocene monsoon
  • Asia ; Atmospheric circulation ; El Niño ; Holocene ; Monsoon ; Ocean atmosphere interaction ; Pacific Region ; Palaeoclimate ; Quaternary ; Surface temperature
  • In this study, a comparison is made between orbital forcing and Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) forcing of the monsoon through a sequence of atmospheric general circulation model experiments configured for 6,000 and 9,000 yr B.P. The results
  • imply that SSTs are potentially as important as orbital parameters in governing the monsoon and that more data , particularly from the equatorial Pacific, are crucial to deciphering Holocene climate.
