Surge glaciers during the Little Ice Age in the Pyrenees
Historical moraine complexes and erosional features are interesting elements to discern the historical climate changes and evolution, with a complex chronologies that help us to understand the dynamics and glacier evolution during the Little Ice Age (LIA)

Vitosha Mountain (SW Bulgaria) during the Little Ice Age in the context of past climate changes in the Balkans [PDF]
This study aims to present and analyse several descriptions of snow cover conditions on Vitosha Mountain over the last five centuries. It uses the written historical sources and diachronic method.

A major midlatitude hurricane in the Little Ice Age [PDF]
An unusually severe hurricane (Louisbourg Storm) struck Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1757. Historic records describing storm conditions as well as damage to ships and coastal fortifications indicate an intensity beyond any modern (post-1851) Atlantic cyclones

Tree-ring Dating of the Little Ice Age Maxima of Arolla Glaciers (Valais, Switzerland)
Little Ice Age (LIA) glacier variations are well constrained in the Alps, partly thanks to an unparalleled body of historical sources. When absent, tree-ring dating can be used to obtain accurate chronological information on glacier maxima.

El glaciar noroccidental del Besiberri (Pirineo de Lérida)
[es] El aparato estudiado constituye un sistema glaciar de derrubios en el que se diferencian tres sectores: superior, con núcleo de hielo, cobertura de clastos, y procesos periglaciares muy activos; medio, glaciar negro, con un sector de glaciar sucio o

The ‘Little Ice Age’ – only temperature? [PDF]
Understanding the climate of the last few centuries, including the ‘Little Ice Age’, may help us better understand modern-day natural climate variability and make climate predictions. The conventional view of the climate development during the last millennium has been that it followed the simple sequence of a ‘Mediaeval Warm Period’, a cool ‘Little ...
