Also, the instrumented lake level of Lake Qinghai and coeval d18OC variations is correlated over the last w50 years (Henderson et al., 2003). Because lake level is influenced by effective moisture, d18OC would be expected to be a good proxy for P/E.

The lake was probably hydrologically closed until ?800 cal yr BP, but experienced higher lake levels ?9000e7500 and ?3300e800 cal yr BP and low lake levels during the intervening times
