Compound Hot and Dry Events in Europe: Variability and Large-Scale Drivers

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

On the Evolution of Paleoclimate and Paleoenvironment in Eastern Beijing Plain in the Last 70,000 Years Based on the Sediment Chronological Framework [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
To study the paleoenvironment and paleoclimate of eastern Beijing Plain, this paper, based on particle size analysis and sporopollen analysis, constructs a sediment chronological framework.

Ice Core Chronologies from the Antarctic Peninsula: The Palmer, Jurassic, and Rendezvous Age-Scales

open access: yesGeosciences, 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.

Evolution of Glacial Lake Cochrane During the Last Glacial Termination, Central Chilean Patagonia (∼47°S)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Large ice-dammed lakes developed along the eastern margin of the Patagonian Ice Sheet (PIS) during the Last Glacial Termination (T1). Their spatial/temporal evolution, however, remains poorly constrained despite their importance for deciphering ...

Physical properties of shallow ice cores from Antarctic and sub-Antarctic islands [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
The sub-Antarctic is one of the most data-sparse regions on earth. A number of glaciated Antarctic and sub-Antarctic islands have the potential to provide unique ice core records of past climate, atmospheric circulation, and sea ice. However, very little

Simulations of Titan’s paleoclimate [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2014
We investigate the effects of varying Saturn's orbit on the atmospheric circulation and surface methane distribution of Titan. Using a new general circulation model of Titan's atmosphere, we simulate its climate under four characteristic configurations of orbital parameters that correspond to snapshots over the past 42 kyr, capturing the amplitude ...

A Paleolatitude Calculator for Paleoclimate Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Realistic appraisal of paleoclimatic information obtained from a particular location requires accurate knowledge of its paleolatitude defined relative to the Earth’s spin-axis. This is crucial to, among others, correctly assess the amount of solar energy

The glacial geomorphology of the Río Corcovado, Río Huemul and Lago Palena/General Vintter valleys, northeastern Patagonia (43°S, 71°W)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2020
This study presents the first detailed glacial geomorphological map of the sediment-landform assemblages formed by three eastern outlet glaciers of the former Patagonian Ice Sheet.

An Unprecedented Sea Ice Retreat in the Weddell Sea Driving an Overall Decrease of the Antarctic Sea‐Ice Extent Over the 20th Century

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Sea‐ice extent is predicted to decrease in a warming climate. However, despite global warming over the past century, total Antarctic sea ice remained relatively stable from 1979 until 2015, before strongly melting.

Holocene palaeoceanography of the Northeast Greenland shelf [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2022
The Northeast Greenland shelf is highly sensitive to climate and ocean variability because it is swept by the East Greenland Current, which, through the western Fram Strait, forms the main pathway of export of sea ice and cold water masses from the ...
