Comparison of stalagmite oxygen isotope records from the south to the north of China, the oxygen isotope ratios become lighter from south to north This pattern matches the observed pattern of the summer monsoon. Starting from the South China Sea and going northward, the summer monsoon supplies rainfall from the south to the north, and oxygen isotope ratios become lighter with precipitation. All of them contain a multi-millennial trend towards heaver ratios since 9000 Yr BP, this suggests that the change in patterns recorded in these ratios in Eastern China results from a single water source.

Conclusions • The stalagmite oxygen isotopes (SOI) from China mostly consistent with the EASM, which derived from sea level pressure. Thus the SOI can be used to extend the EASMI in some cases. • 2. The EASM and the China Temperature is out phase in most periods at decadal and multi-decadal scales over the last millennium.
