Western Indian Ocean marine and terrestrial records of climate variability: a review and new concepts on land-ocean interactions since AD 1660 [PDF]

, 2008
We examine the relationship between three tropical and two subtropical western Indian Ocean coral oxygen isotope time series to surface air temperatures (SAT) and rainfall over India, tropical East Africa and southeast Africa.

Seasonal Sea Surface Temperatures from Mercenaria spp. During the Plio-Pleistocene: Oxygen Isotope Versus Clumped Isotope Paleothermometers

Geosciences
The Mid-Piacenzian Warm Interval (MPWI) is marked by warmer temperatures and higher atmospheric CO2 levels than today, making it an analogue for late-21st-century-warming, whereas the early Pleistocene cooling is more like today.

Climate Change according to Ecuadorian academics–Perceptions versus facts

La Granja: Revista de Ciencias de la Vida, 2020
Climate change has become one of the most important topics in each country’s government agendas. The current effects demand quicker actions in order to decrease the speed at which the global warming and climate is changing, which are commonly seen in ...

Chaotic response of global climate to long-term solar forcing variability

, 2009
It is shown that global climate exhibits chaotic response to solar forcing variability in a vast range of timescales: from annual to multi-millennium. Unlike linear systems, where periodic forcing leads to periodic response, nonlinear chaotic response to

A statistical analysis of multiple temperature proxies: Are reconstructions of surface temperatures over the last 1000 years reliable? [PDF]

, 2011
Predicting historic temperatures based on tree rings, ice cores, and other natural proxies is a difficult endeavor. The relationship between proxies and temperature is weak and the number of proxies is far larger than the number of target data points ...

The Nile and Climate History, 3000 BCE to 30 BCE

Heritage
The relationship between Nile flood variability and Egyptian political stability has been studied since Barbara Bell’s pioneering work in the 1970s, yet precise causal mechanisms linking environmental stress to societal crisis have remained elusive due ...

Climate, fire disturbance regime, and vegetation response of the past 2500 years for central Nova Scotia

Ecosphere, 2023
The interaction between climate change and disturbances affects forest composition and dynamics, but most of our empirical knowledge comes from short‐term studies of the past century.
