From: 800-kyr land temperature variations modulated by vegetation changes on Chinese Loess Plateau
800-kyr land surface temperature (LST) records from Luochuan and Xifeng sections on the Chinese Loess Plateau, compared with onsite magnetic susceptibility and global/marine indicators. a Luochuan and Xifeng magnetic susceptibility (MS) records with major loess (L1–L7) and paleosol (S0–S7, orange bars) units labeled. b, c LSTs from Luochuan and Xifeng, respectively, with their three-point moving averages. d Atmospheric CO2 from Antarctic ice core records24. e Reconstructed global sea surface temperatures19 and benthic δ18O stack2. The blue bars highlight intervals of early warming at Xifeng and Luochuan within glacial periods as indicated by other records. Initiation of LST rise led other indicators by ~7–20 kyr
