Abstract |
Collaboration between Earth and Historical Sciences is a promising approach to understand climatic influences to human society. High-resolution paleoclimatic records of late Holocene allow correlation... with the historical records. A recent study on lacustrine sediments suggested coincidence between cooling events and collapse of the Chinese dynasties, such as Shang, Han, and Tang. However, this suggestion is inconsistent with statistic data examination of historical meteorology. More reliable paleoclimatic researches have focused on a short cold periods of 17th and 18th centuries, so-called Little Ice Age that is closely associated with the weakened solar activity during the Maunder Minimum (1645-1715). The frozen Dokai Bay in 1684 is an example of the cooling events, which was described in northern Kyushu.show more
