Zusammenfassung
Zhang and Lu argue that Chinese historical climate records contradict certain of our interpretations based on Lake Huguang Maar sediment records. Interpreting these records as an indicator for winter monsoon winds and Chinese cave records as an indicator for summer monsoon rainfall, we observed an inverse relationship between winter and summer monsoons on a millennial timescale over the past 16,000 yr. In sediments deposited during the period of Classical Chinese dynastic history, we found evidence for a temporal coincidence between winter monsoon strengthening and the terminations of important dynasties. Extrapolating the inverse monsoon relationship to these multidecadal timescales, we suggested that reduced summer rainfall contributed to dynastic terminations, including that of the Tang (AD 618–907). Zhang and Lu challenge the validity of the summer/winter monsoon relationship on the grounds that historical records indicate that relatively cold winters tended to be associated with relatively wet summers over the period they considered. They argue that the Tang dynasty decline was associated with cold winters, in agreement with our findings, but they find no evidence for rainfall changes having contributed to the decline of the Tang.
