Tibetan lakes have been persistent CO2 sources since the Last Glacial Maximum

Tibetan lakes have continuously released CO2 since the Last Glacial Maximum, with elevated emissions during the last deglaciation and early Holocene, as shown by reconstructed lake CO2 concentrations using stable carbon isotope records of aquatic plants from 14 lakes.

Pleistocene terrestrial warming trend in East Asia linked to Antarctic ice sheets growth

The authors quantify terrestrial temperature evolution over the past 2 million years by fossil lipids preserved in an ancient lake in East Asia. They showed a long-term warming trend that diverges from the contemporaneous global sea surface cooling.

Spatial patterns of Holocene temperature changes over mid-latitude Eurasia

New alkenone results and existing temperature records together show contrasting Holocene temperature trends and thus display spatial patterns over mid-latitude Eurasia, with implications for the Holocene temperature conundrum.

Oxygenated deep waters fed early Atlantic overturning circulation upon Antarctic glaciation

Deep-ocean oxygenation patterns consistent with an active Atlantic meridional overturning circulation emerged following the Eocene-Oligocene transition about 34 million years ago, according to biomarker records from the northwest North Atlantic.

800-kyr land temperature variations modulated by vegetation changes on Chinese Loess Plateau

Modern observation indicates that vegetation cover could modulate land surface temperatures substantially. Here the authors demonstrate that such vegetation feedbacks could be clearly identified in the Chinese Loess Plateau land surface temperature records during past cool periods when vegetation cover was reduced.

Transient temperature asymmetry between hemispheres in the Palaeogene Atlantic Ocean

Northern and Southern hemisphere temperatures were decoupled during the Eocene/Oligocene transition, suggests a sea surface temperature record from the North Atlantic.

Mid-Miocene sea level altitude of the Qaidam Basin, northern Tibetan Plateau

The identification of marine alkenones and anomalously high carbonate carbon isotopic values in sediments suggest the Qaidam Basin in the northern Tibetan Plateau was uplifted from sea level to its present altitude since the Mid-Miocene.
