Bacterial branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) have been successfully used as quantitative climate proxies for reconstructing annual mean air temperature (MAT) and soil pH from sediments. However, reconstructions derived from brGDGTs in regions with diverse hydrological and atmospheric conditions require further refinement. In this study, we investigated the suitability of brGDGTs as temperature and precipitation proxies from surface soils on opposite slopes of Mount Fanjing ...[more]
