Regional variability of diatoms in ice cores from the Antarctic Peninsula and Ellsworth Land, Antarctica [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2022 The presence of marine microfossils (diatoms) in glacier ice and ice cores has been documented from numerous sites in Antarctica, Greenland, as well as from sites in the Andes and the Altai mountains, and attributed to entrainment and transport by winds.

Regional validation of the use of diatoms in ice cores from the Antarctic Peninsula as a Southern Hemisphere westerly wind proxy [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2022 The Southern Hemisphere westerly winds are among the most important drivers of recently observed environmental changes in West Antarctica. However, the lack of long-term wind records in this region hinders our ability to assess the long-term context of ...

Decadal Scale Variability of Larsen Ice Shelf Melt Captured by Antarctic Peninsula Ice Core
Geosciences, 2022 In this study, we used the stable water isotope record (δ18O) from an ice core drilled in Palmer Land, southern Antarctic Peninsula (AP). Utilizing δ18O we identified two climate regimes during the satellite era.

Compound Hot and Dry Events in Europe: Variability and Large-Scale Drivers
Frontiers in Climate, 2021 An important aspect of inevitable surprises, for the climate system, is the potential of occurrence of compound extreme events. These can be events that occur at the same time over the same geographic location or at multiple locations within a given ...

Ice Core Chronologies from the Antarctic Peninsula: The Palmer, Jurassic, and Rendezvous Age-Scales
Geosciences, 2022 In this study, we present the age scales for three Antarctic Peninsula (AP) ice cores: Palmer, Rendezvous, and Jurassic. The three cores are all intermediate-depth cores, in the 133–141 m depth range.
