a June insolation at 45°N (red), atmospheric CO2 concentration30 (brown), and relative sea level29 (blue) in the Holocene. b–d Time evolution of EASM wind, annual mean NC rainfall, and upper layer (0.5-m) soil moisture changes and e–g their linear trends for the periods from early to mid-Holocene (EH to MH, 9.5–6.5 ka) and from the mid- to late Holocene (MH to LH, 6.5–0 ka). Shown are the TraCE21 simulation with all forcing (ALL, black), insolation forcing (ORB, red), ice sheet forcing (ICE, blue), greenhouse gases forcing (GHGs, brown), meltwater flux forcing (MWF, cadetblue), and the sum of the four individual forcing experiments (Sum, gray). Temporal spans of the early Holocene (EM), mid-Holocene (MH), and late Holocene (LH) are illustrated with vertical dashed lines in a–d.
