Contrasting drivers of South Asian summer and winter monsoon evolution during the last deglaciation (opens in new tab)

Reconstructing past South Asian monsoon dynamics, which governs wind and rainfall patterns across the Indian subcontinent, is crucial for understanding low-latitude climate. Constraining monsoon drivers requires separating summer and winter components in palaeoclimate archives, but this remains challenging because proxy signals usually integrate seasonal signals. The northeastern Arabian Sea provides a unique setting in which sedimentary and geochemical proxies are driven by the summer monsoo...
