The SISAL database: a global resource to document oxygen and carbon isotope records from speleothems [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2018
Stable isotope records from speleothems provide information on past climate changes, most particularly information that can be used to reconstruct past changes in precipitation and atmospheric circulation. These records are increasingly being used to

Extreme weather and economic crisis in the 1430s in England, and the implications for tenurial change

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...

The Climate Control of Soil Organic Carbon Dynamics Inferred From Speleothem Radiocarbon Ages

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The complexity of processes affecting soil organic carbon (SOC) turnover on spatio‐temporal scales often hinders the extrapolation of results from specific sites to larger scales.

Paleoclimate in continental northwestern Europe during the Eemian and early Weichselian (125–97 ka): insights from a Belgian speleothem [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2016
The last interglacial serves as an excellent time interval for studying climate dynamics during past warm periods. Speleothems have been successfully used for reconstructing the paleoclimate of last interglacial continental Europe.

Spatial distribution of soda straws growth rates of the Coufin Cave (Vercors, France) [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2010
The Choranche Cave system (Vercors, France) is an excellent locality for measuring the growth rates of large numbers soda straws. This is especially the case for the Coufin Cave, as enlargement of the cave entrance in 1875 led to a change in stalactite ...

Reconnaissance study of watershed and cave sediment sources discharging from a karst spring, Iowa

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Springs discharging from karst landscapes provide sustainable flows to natural ecosystems and support productive fish hatcheries but sediment discharging from springs threatens the long‐term sustainability of hatcheries. In this study, we conducted a reconnaissance study to evaluate watershed and cave sediment sources discharging to Siewers ...

Moonmilk as a human and veterinary medicine: evidence of past artisan mining in caves of the Austrian Alps

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2018
The use of moonmilk for medical and other purposes in the Alps is documented since the 16th century. This article reviews speleological reports and sparse historical accounts about the extraction of moonmilk from 18 caves in the Eastern Alps of Austria ...
