Abstract

The Asian monsoon system is a major feature of Earth's climate, impacting nearly half of the global population. The monsoon system has changed over geological time, intimately tied with the growth of the Himalaya and Tibet since the Paleogene and early Neogene. Here, we aim to untangle the multiple tectonic and climatic controls that led to the modern monsoon system and brought about the notably high biodiversity in this surrounding area via climate reconstructions derived from sedimentary archives of the Tibetan Plateau, South China, and Yunnan Province. Our focus area in Yunnan Province, situated between the Tibetan Plateau and the highly-productive agricultural lowlands of China, has >200 basins with Cenozoic sediments, making it a rich but largely untapped archive of Earth history.
