   Global and Planetary Change
1. The response of the Okhotsk Sea Environment to the Orbital-Millennium Global Climate Changes during the Last Glacial Maximum, Deglaciation and Holocene
Sergey A. Gorbarenko, Antonina V. Artemova, Evgeniy L. Goldberg, Yuriy P. Vasilenko
Highlights
Synchronicity climate changes during LGM, HE1, BA, YD and PB in North hemisphere
IRD MAR records indicate still important Okhotsk Sea role in NPIW glacial formation
OS productivity rises during BA and Pre-Boreal due to NW Pacific ventilation changes
IRD stack show seven Holocene cold events coeval with N Atlantic - atmospheric cycles
Tight relationship of the diatom production in the OS with sea ice cover changes.

2. Synchronous or asynchronous Holocene Indian and East Asian summer monsoon evolution: A synthesis on Holocene Asian summer monsoon simulations, records and modern monsoon indices
Yu Li, Nai’ang Wang, Xuehua Zhou, Chengqi Zhang, Yue Wang

3. Little Ice Age on the Tibetan Plateau and its bordering mountains: Evidence from moraine chronologies
Xiangke Xu, Chaolu Yi
Highlights
Ages of the LIA moraines on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are reviewed
Glaciers reached and retreated from LIA maximum extents asynchronously
LIA glacier fluctuations responded more strongly to temperature
More chronology data is needed to constrain the LIA glacier fluctuations

4. Tibet forcing Quaternary stepwise enhancement of westerly jet and central Asian aridification: carbonate isotope records from deep drilling in the Qaidam salt playa, NE Tibet
Wenxia Han, Xiaomin Fang, Chengcheng Ye, Xiaohua Teng, Tao Zhang
Highlights
First high quality Plio-Pleistocene carbonate isotope records from central Asia
Long-term persistent drying of the Asian inland since 1.2 Ma and 0.6 Ma
Enhancing and bending of westerly jet and blocking of moisture would be causes
They might be driven by Mid-Pleistocene rapid uplift of the Tibet Plateau
