| Main results | Theoretical results Base on the MS results of 757 samples of sediment from late Pleistocene up to now in the 7 sections belong to 4 caves in North of Vietnam Conmoong- Thanh Hoa, Cho cave- Hoabinh, To- Sonla, Mo shelf- Son La conjunction with data of archaeology, C14 age, pollen and petrologic components, we have results bellows:
Base on correlation MS zones of all the good sections in the caves of North Vietnam, we rebuild paleoclimate model from late Pleistocene 22000 year BP up to 3000 year BP. This model show the main tendency of climate in North of Vietnam during 22000 year BP up to now: The warm, wet conditions and dry, cold conditions continuous step by step from late Pleistocene to half earlier Holocene, and then the warm, moisture conditions was predominantly, so there was alternate the short time of cold. There are some big event of climate shown in MS data of the caves of Vietnam: Younger Dryas was have seen in SA14, Hienrich1 event was have seen in SA20, the last maximum glacial (LGM) cycles was have seen in SA22. Using extrapolation function for MS data, climatic up to now was built. The result show that: we are in the time of the warm and temperature increase.
