Split westerlies over Europe in the early Little Ice Age [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 A new stalagmite record from northern Italy and other published data from Europe and northern Africa reveals a split in the climatological westerlies during the early LIA, possibly attributed to sea ice melting.

Accelerated mass loss of Himalayan glaciers since the Little Ice Age [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Himalayan glaciers are undergoing rapid mass loss but rates of contemporary change lack long-term (centennial-scale) context. Here, we reconstruct the extent and surfaces of 14,798 Himalayan glaciers during the Little Ice Age (LIA), 400 to 700 years ago.

Glacier Recession in the Altai Mountains after the LIA Maximum
Remote Sensing, 2022 The study aims to reconstruct the Altai glaciers at the maximum of the LIA, to estimate the reduction of the Altai glaciers from the LIA maximum to the present, and to analyze glacier reduction rates on the example of the Tavan Bogd mountain range ...

Mass Loss of Glaciers and Ice Caps Across Greenland Since the Little Ice Age
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Glaciers and ice caps (GICs) are important contributors of meltwater runoff and to global sea level rise. However, knowledge of GIC mass changes is largely restricted to the last few decades.

The Little Ice Age in the Tatra Mountains
Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2018 The Little Ice Age (LIA) in the Tatras was characterized by both long and short rainy periods (mostly long cold rainy summers) alternated with warm periods that sometimes were very dry.
