Short summary
A longstanding conundrum regarding the stable oxygen isotope (δ18O) proxy for hydroclimate in speleothems from the Korean Peninsula, which, unlike records from East Asia (e.g., China), do not exhibit isotopic shifts in response to precession forcing. Using Korean speleothem records spanning several orbital-scale segments of the last ~550,000 years and paleoclimate simulations, the present study proposes a plausible role of the oceanic and continental moisture mixing in suppressing δ18O signals.
