Abstract

Based on the geological and biological findings, and climate model simulations, current understanding of the Asian monsoon-arid environment has been synthesized here. This chapter addresses the evolution of the Asian monsoon-arid environment and how it is related to the growth of the Tibetan Plateau (TP), and global environmental change since the Cenozoic. Asian monsoon appearance may begin in the late Eocene. The basic structure of the monsoon-arid environment was established by late Oligocene, and the modern pattern of the monsoon-arid environment developed in the late Pliocene. Conceptual models for Asian monsoon-arid environmental change mechanisms at various time scales are proposed here. The occurrence of great Northern hemisphere glaciation has been discussed. Differentiation of the natural background and anthropogenic signals are examined. Policies and countermeasures for sustainable development on the Loess Plateau and arid areas are proposed for future reference.
