Title Late glacial and Holocene climate change in continental Asia (Project no.PALCOMM, INQUA 0502)
CommissionPALCOMM
Description

The late glacial and Holocene climate change in continental Central Asia is inferred from numerous geological records including lake and peat sediments, loess and soil sections, ice cores, tree rings and glacier remains. However, the climate history of this vast region is hitherto not well understood due to complex spatial differences in moisture conditions (different air masses, local P/E ratio, local water sources stored as snow, ice and frozen ground) and climatic thresholds. Regions under monsoonal influence at the eastern and southern margin of continental Central Asia experienced significantly different conditions in the Holocene compared to regions under the dominating influence of the westerlies.
The session serves as a platform to present late glacial and Holocene climate records from continental Asia and to discuss underlying climatic mechanisms and local or regional driving forces.
