The Late Pleistocene Peopling of East Asia and Associated Climate-Environment History

该项目将通过了解以季风天气系统为中心的气候变化的长期历史，以及环境变化的规模和程度及其对东亚和澳大拉西亚人类居民的长期影响，为环境可持续发展的澳大利亚做出贡献。它通过加深对社会和文化的理解，提高我们对本地区的理解和参与能力，从而有助于保护澳大利亚。它将增进对我们地区主要人群的长期历史和关系的理解。澳大利亚和我们的邻国中国之间的科学、教育和文化交流将带来许多好处。

This project will contribute to an environmentally sustainable Australia through understanding the long-term history of climate change centred on the monsoon weather system and the scale and magnitude of environmental change and its long-term impacts on human inhabitants in East Asia and Australasia. It helps to safeguard Australia by enhancing our capacity to interpret and engage with our region through greater understanding of societies and cultures. It will improve understanding of the long-term history and relationships of major groups of people across our region. Many benefits will derive from scientific, educational and cultural exchange between Australia and our neighbour China.
