Figure 1 The sketch map of paleoenvironmental evolution from warm and wet (A) to cold and dry (B) during the Plio-Pleistocene transition in Zhangcun region, Shanxi, North China
Figure 2 Reconstructed paleo-CO2 since 5 Ma (modified from Bai et al., 2015) The green line indicates the paleo-[CO2]atm estimated by stomatal parameters; the red line indicates the paleo-[CO2]aq estimated by marine alkenone and boron isotope; the horizontal light blue shade indicates the paleo-[CO2]aq estimated by marine boron isotope.
