•Two large-scale transgressions are recognized in Sr/Ba and Rb/K curves.•Multiple elementary ratios are used to reconstruct the sedimentary environment.•Holocene climate change in the Lubei Plain is comparable to that in the whole China. As has been greatly affected by sea-level fluctuations since t...
