From: Neogene South Asian monsoon rainfall and wind histories diverged due to topographic effects

Extended Data Fig. 5

Low level winds (850 hPa) during boreal summer (JJA) for a) late Miocene (LM) with low CO2 (LM-CO2); b) LM with Expanded Antarctic Ice Sheet (LM-AIS); c) LM with half present-day Anatolia-Iran topography (LM-NoAIO); d) LM with reduced topography in East African Highlands (LM-noEAHR); e) EM with uplifted East African Highlands (EM-EAH); f) EM with fully uplifted HTP region (EM-HTP) and g) EM with higher than present-day Himalaya orography (EM-Him).
