The cooling by 5 degrees C from 21 ka to 12.8 ka implies the equatorward shift of the subarctic boundary in the northwestern Pacific by similar to 2.8 degrees in latitude. This shift was a result of the stronger summer Okhotsk High. The Okhotsk High was likely enhanced by the combined effects of El Nino-like conditions in the tropical Pacific and the heating of the land surface of northeastern Siberia.
