Collapse of fragile Chinese Swamp Cypress forest Open
The tertiary relict species Glyptostrobus pensilis , formerly widespread in the Pearl River Delta, experienced a sudden decline and was on the brink of extinction in the late Holocene. The mechanism behind is still in debate. Here, using p…

Holocene environmental changes and prehistoric agricultural development along the coastal areas of South China to Southeast Asia Open
Evidence for Neolithic era rice farming shows that this development occurred significantly later along the coastal zone of South China and Southeast Asia (SC-SEA) than in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. However, the mechanisms that…

Sedimentary Rock Magnetic Response to Holocene Environmental Instability in the Pearl River Delta Open
Located on the northern coast of the South China Sea, the densely populated Pearl River Delta has experienced the combined effects of sea-level change, monsoon-driven discharge, and especially human activity, since the late Holocene. Howev…

History of Mid- and Late Holocene Palaeofloods in the Yangtze Coastal Lowlands, East China: Evaluation of Non-Pollen Palynomorph Evidence, Review and Synthesis Open
The surface of the lowland deltaic plain around Taihu (Lake Tai), south of the Yangtze river mouth in eastern China, lies near sea level and until recent drainage and development by human societies was mostly covered by wetlands of various…

Spatial variability of Holocene relative sea level on the China coast Open
<p>The coast of China is located in the far-field of past large ice sheets, and therefore relative sea-level (RSL) data from this region have been used to infer sea-level equivalent changes during the Holocene using geophysical model…

Holocene coastal evolution preceded the expansion of paddy field rice farming Open
Significance Our study reveals a remarkable relationship between Late Holocene coastal evolution and the rise of rice agriculture across coastal Asia. Around 2,000 to 3,000 y ago, the emergence of coastal plains under freshwater conditions…

A Parameter for Quantifying the Macroscale Asymmetry of Tropical Cyclone Cloud Clusters Open
A parameter to quantify macroscale (i.e., systemwide) asymmetry of tropical cyclones (TC) in infrared satellite images, galaxy asymmetry (GASYM), which is adopted from astronomy, is described. In addition, an alternative approach to identi…

Holocene sea-level change on the central coast of Bohai Bay, China Open
To constrain models on global sea-level change regional proxy data on coastal change are indispensable. Here, we reconstruct the Holocene sea-level history of the northernmost China Sea shelf. This region is of great interest owing to its …

Millennial scale land subsidence history along the southern China coast Open
<p>Estimation of coastal land subsidence rates due to GIA and tectonic factors on millennial scale has become an urgent task for the hazard assessment of future rising sea level. Whilst geophysical simulation is a promising approach,…

Pollen and non-pollen palynomorph analyses of Upper Holocene sediments from Dianshan, Yangtze coastal lowlands, China: Hydrology, vegetation history and human activity Open
The coastal deltaic plain of the Yangtze River between Taihu (Lake Tai) and Shanghai in eastern China has been the scene of human settlement and agriculture since the early Neolithic, becoming increasingly intensive in the Upper Holocene w…

Ecology and hydrology of early rice farming: geoarchaeological and palaeo-ecological evidence from the Late Holocene paddy field site at Maoshan, the Lower Yangtze Open
The well-preserved Maoshan paddy fields (4700–4300 bp) were built on an intermediate landscape between the foothills and alluvial plain of the Lower Yangtze River. Despite several interdisciplinary research, there has been a lack of detail…
