A multi-parameter, absolute-dated lacustrine record from the eastern Tibetan Plateau provides a continuous history of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) over the past ~ 6000 years. The record broadly follows the trend in northern hemisphere summer insolation. However, it diverges during a period of increased moisture and thermal conditions during the past ~ 1300 years, broadly corresponding to the ASM “2-kyr shift”. This shift as referred by Cheng et al. (Nature 534:640–646, 10.1038/nature18591, 2016) may be related to Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation variations, and potentially to increased forcing by greenhouse gases coincident with reduced ENSO activity. The record is punctuated by several weak monsoon intervals. Cross-correlation of the sub-millennial-scale monsoon record with solar activity and ENSO records shows that most of the monsoon variability potentially results from changes in solar irradiation, and has a strong teleconnection with ENSO activity.

来自青藏高原东部的多参数，绝对年代的湖泊记录提供了过去约6000年间亚洲夏季风（ASM）的连续历史。该记录大体上遵循北半球夏季日照的趋势。然而，它在过去约1300年的潮湿和高温条件增加的时期内发散，大致对应于ASM的“ 2-kyr shift”。正如程等人所提到的。（Nature 534：640–646，10.1038 / nature18591，2016）可能与大西洋子午倾覆环流变化有关，并可能与温室气体强迫增加同时ENSO活性降低有关。该记录被几个弱的季风间隔打断。
