interpretation
1

basis: Complete replacement of the winter Indian monsoon source with a southeasterly/northwesterly source would deplete ?Dwax by about 35?, which is the amplitude of change observed between the mega- droughts interval and the Holocene. / "Relatively depleted ?Dwax values at Lake Malawi from ~3.1 ka to present likely reflect the modern hydrological controls on ?Dprecip, with source changes constituting a more limited role than the amount effect and overall intensity of the hydrological cycle. "

direction: depends (orbital timescale: More Indian Monsoon moisture-->more enriched. Since 3ka: Indian source has been stable, so amount effect dominates: more rainfall, more intense hydrological cycle -->More depleted)

basis: Leaf wax dD reflects "...variations in the ?D of precipitation (?Dprecip) through time in many systems (Hou et al., 2008; Huang et al., 2004). Observational data and isotope-enabled climate models indicate that ?Dprecip reflects the integrated atmospheric history of a water parcel, including source region, transport history, and convective, evaporative, and distillation processes." / "The Lake Malawi ?Dwax likely reflects the ?D of precipitation and associated changes in precipitation and vapor transport, not bio- synthetic or temperature effects."
