Pacific Southwest United States Holocene Droughts and Pluvials Inferred From Sediment δ18O (calcite) and Grain Size Data (Lake Elsinore, California) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Records of past climate can inform us on the natural range and mechanisms of climate change. In the arid Pacific southwestern United States (PSW), which includes southern California, there exist a variety of Holocene records that can be used to infer ...

Mid-Holocene Northern Hemisphere warming driven by Arctic amplification. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Holocene thermal maximum was characterized by strong summer solar heating that substantially increased the summertime temperature relative to preindustrial climate.

Holocene underkill [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
In this issue of PNAS, Jones et al. (1) address an issue that has been with us, in one way or another, for some 200 years. Around the year 1800, French paleontologist Georges Cuvier established the reality of vertebrate extinction by using animals so large that their future discovery on the hoof was highly unlikely (2).

The spatial-temporal patterns of Asian summer monsoon precipitation in response to Holocene insolation change: a model-data synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Highlights: • Slice and transient simulations of Holocene climate change were performed. • Spatial–temporal patterns of Holocene Asian summer precipitation are investigated. • A tripole pattern of summer precipitation can be seen over monsoonal Asia.

Earliest Holocene south Greenland ice sheet retreat within its late Holocene extent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Early Holocene summer warmth drove dramatic Greenland ice sheet (GIS) retreat. Subsequent insolation-driven cooling caused GIS margin readvance to late Holocene maxima, from which ice margins are now retreating.

Winter air temperature in Holocene reconstructed from the ice wedges stable water isotopes near Anadyr town

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2019
The object of research is syncryogenic Holocene strata on the coast of the Onemen Bay, 2 km from the town of Anadyr. In July 2017, the outcrop of the first marine terrace uncovered by strong storms was examined.

Persistent elastic behavior above a megathrust rupture patch: Nias island, West Sumatra [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We quantify fore-arc deformation using fossil reefs to test the assumption commonly made in seismic cycle models that anelastic deformation of the fore arc is negligible.

Studies of the Belukha glacier plexus in the context of global glacio-climatic monitoring (on the 100th anniversary of the first ascent of the Belukha Mountain)

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
The Belukha Mountain is the highest peak of the Altai. On July 26 (7th August in the new time scale) of 1914 the brothers Boris and Mikhail Tronov discovered the mountain and were the first people to climb it. The Tronov Glacier is named after them.

The first-order effect of Holocene Northern Peatlands on global carbon cycle dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Given the fact that the estimated present-day carbon storage of Northern Peatlands (NP) is about 300–500 petagram (PgC, 1 petagram = 1015 gram), and the NP has been subject to a slow but persistent growth over the Holocene epoch, it is desirable to ...
