“ The study found that 62 of 68 dynastic collapses occurred soon
after Northern Hemisphere volcanic eruptions, an outcome that had
only a one-in-2,000 chance of happening if the eruptions and
collapses were unrelated. Chinese have traditionally cited the
withdrawal of the “mandate of heaven” to explain the cold weather,
droughts, floods, and agricultural failures that seemed to accompany
the fall of dynasties. The paper contends that those phenomena have a
climatic explanation.”
