Late Glacial summer paleohydrology across Central Europe [PDF]
Scientific ReportsIt is generally accepted that a weakening of the North Atlantic thermohaline circulation caused the Younger Dryas cooling. Although the role of seasonality was emphasized previously, this aspect is rarely considered yet, and it remains elusive how this ...

Late Glacial–Holocene climatic transition record at the Argentinian Andean piedmont between 33 and 34° S [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2014 The Arroyo La Estacada (~ 33°28' S, 69°02' W), eastern Andean piedmont of Argentina, cuts through an extensive piedmont aggradational unit composed of a dominant Late Pleistocene–early Holocene (LP–EH) alluvial sequence that includes several paleosols ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Andean mountain glaciers in central Chile are in a transitional zone between the seasonal influence of the mid-latitude westerlies and subtropical semiarid conditions to the north. Long-term glacial dynamics for these glaciers and their relationship with

Late-glacial to late-Holocene shifts in global precipitation δ18O [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2015 Reconstructions of Quaternary climate are often based on the isotopic content of paleo-precipitation preserved in proxy records. While many paleo-precipitation isotope records are available, few studies have synthesized these dispersed records to explore

New Perspectives on Glacial Geomorphology in Earth’s Deep Time Record
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The deep time (pre-Quaternary) glacial record is an important means to understand the growth, development, and recession of the global cryosphere on very long timescales (106–108 Myr).

Late Cryogenian and late Paleozoic ice ages on the São Francisco craton, east Brazil
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The miniature paleocontinent in the region of the São Francisco River valley, in eastern Brazil, holds the record of two different glacial epochs. The late Cryogenian Jequitaí Formation from the Bambuí Group is up to 100 m thick and covers areas mainly ...

Latin American Journal of Sedimentology and Basin Analysis, 2021 One of the most important glacial events in the history of the Earth took place during the Late Paleozoic when large areas of the Gondwana Supercontinent were covered by ice-masses (Crowell, 1978; Hambrey and Harland, 1981; Isbell et al., 2003a,b; Rocha
