Sponsored by NSFC program and National 973 project, Prof. Xianguo Li's team made new progress on reconstructing East Asian monsoon in Holocene by using the terrigenous biomarker lignin in sedimentary samples of the South Yellow Sea for the first time. The research result was published in
Earth and Planetary Science Letters (IF 4.409) and Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology(IF 2.578)recently.
