The penultimate glacial monsoon broadly follows orbitally induced insolation variations and is punctuated by at least 16 millennial-scale events. We confirm a Weak Monsoon Interval between 135.5+ or -1.0 and 129.0+ or -1.0 ka, prior to the abrupt increase in monsoon intensity at Asian Monsoon Termination II. Based on correlations with both marine ice-rafted debris and atmospheric CH (sub 4) records, we demonstrate that most of marine Termination II, the full rise in Antarctic temperature and atmospheric CO (sub 2) , and much of the rise in CH (sub 4) occurred within the Weak Monsoon Interval, when the high northern latitudes were probably cold. From these relationships and similar relationships observed for Termination I, we identify a two-phase glacial termination process that was probably driven by orbital forcing in both hemispheres, affecting the atmospheric hydrological cycle, and combined with ice sheet dynamics.completedQuaternary geologyIsotope geochemistryAsiaAtlantic Oceancave environmentCenozoicChinacorrelationcyclesdeglaciationeastern ChinaFar EastForaminiferageochemistryglacial environmentglaciationHulu Caveinsolationinterglacial environmentinterstadial environmentInvertebrataisotope ratiosisotopesLeg 162microfossilsmonsoonsNorth AtlanticNortheast AtlanticO-18/O-16Ocean Drilling ProgramODP Site 980oxygenpaleo-oceanographypaleoclimatologypaleohydrologyPleistoceneProtistaQuaternarysea-surface temperaturesolution featuresspeleothemsstable isotopesstalagmitesterrestrial environmenttwo-phase modelsupper Pleistoceneurn:org.iodp:exp:162urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:162:site:980urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:162urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-14.4208119.100032.300055.2906With GSA Data Repository Item 2006040
