Can we predict the duration of an interglacial? [PDF]
Differences in the duration of interglacials have long been apparent in palaeoclimate records of the Late and Middle Pleistocene. However, a systematic evaluation of such differences has been hampered by the lack of a metric that can be applied ...

Holocene Climate Changes: Unraveling Processes, Mechanisms, and Impacts Across Spatiotemporal Scales
Abstract As the most recent interglacial period and the timeframe for the development of human civilization, the Holocene provides a critical perspective for understanding future climate under continued global warming. This special collection focuses on Holocene climate changes and features 14 interdisciplinary studies.

Abstract The Penultimate Deglaciation (PDG) saw warming from the Penultimate Glacial Maximum to the Last Interglacial (LIG). We present 18‐kyr transient simulations through the PDG into the LIG using a fully‐coupled three‐dimensional ocean‐atmosphere model forced with Paleoclimate Modeling Intercomparison Project Phase 4 transient boundary conditions ...

Several caves in Devon, England, have been noted for extensive cracking of substantial flowstone floors. Conjectural explanations have included earthquake damage, local shock damage from collapsing cave passages, hydraulic pressure, and cryogenic ...

The role of microorganisms in the formation of a stalactite in Botovskaya Cave, Siberia – paleoenvironmental implications [PDF]
Calcitic speleothems in caves can form through abiogenic or biogenic processes, or through a combination of both. Many issues conspire to make the assessment of biogenicity difficult, especially when focusing on old speleothem deposits.

ABSTRACT Understanding the biotic and abiotic influences on the deposition and diagenesis of recent microbial carbonates is crucial for addressing the environmental and ecological significance of ancient organosedimentary structures. This study investigates these factors and their expression in the microstructure of Holocene tufa thrombolites from a ...

Extracting winter North Atlantic Oscillation information from a central European stalagmite [PDF]
This study explores the potential for extracting winter North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) information from central European stalagmites using a high resolution calcite δ18O (δ18Ocal) time-series from a stalagmite (AH1) extracted from Atta cave in ...

Recently forming stalagmites from the Baradla Cave and their suitability assessment for climate–proxy relationships [PDF]
Determination of the long-term behavior of cave systems and their response to changing environmental conditions is essential for further paleoclimate analyses of cave-hosted carbonate deposits.

Abstract In contrast to previous approaches, new reconstructions of changes in global mean surface temperature and global mean sea level (GMSL) include large variability in GMSL throughout the Pleistocene. Here we assess these reconstructions from an energy balance perspective by using them to force a global carbon cycle model in different scenarios ...
