High Arctic Holocene temperature record from the Agassiz ice cap and Greenland ice sheet evolution
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017 Significance Reconstructions of past environmental changes are important for placing recent climate change in context and testing climate models. Periods of past climates warmer than today provide insight on how components of the climate system might ...
