Leavitt, Ulf Büntgen, Qiufang Cai, Ruoshi Liu, Congxi Fang, Changfeng Sun, Kerstin Treydte, Meng Ren, Lidong Mo, Yi Song, Wenju Cai, Quan Zhang, Weijian Zhou, Achim Bräuning, Jussi Grießinger, Deliang Chen, Hans W. Linderholm, Ashish Sinha, Hai Cheng, Lu Wang, Ying Lei, Junyan Sun, Wei Gong, Xuxiang Li, Linlin Cui, Liang Ning, Lingfeng Wan, Thomas W. Crowther, Constantin M. Zohner

“…Our findings reveal that the 20th century drought extremes are severe within the past three millennia, and likely linked to the weakening of both the Asian Monsoon and Westerlies due to anthropogenic aerosol emissions. Additionally, our analyses identified three distinct stages (110 BC–AD 280, AD 330–770 and AD 950–1300) characterized by shifts toward arid hydroclimate conditions, corresponding to significant social unrest and dynasty collapses, which underscores the potential societal impacts of severe hydroclimatic shifts.…”
