Based on the ENSO chronology and climatic information recovered from the Gu
liya ice core in the Tibetan Plateau, China, the ENSO teleconnection was in
vestigated. The results showed that the negative precipitation anomalies ar
e significantly associated with El Nino years but poorly with negative anom
aly of delta O-18. Thus, the ice core records can be used as an archive of
extremely global climate anomalies such as ENSO events.
