A global overview of glacier advances and retreats (grouped by regions and by millennia)
for the Holocene is compiled from previous studies. The reconstructions of glacier …

The last 6000years are of particular interest to the understanding of the Earth System
because the boundary conditions of the climate system did not change dramatically (in …

Surface temperature reconstructions of the past 1500 years suggest that recent warming is
unprecedented in that time. Here we provide a broader perspective by reconstructing …

The latitudinal temperature gradient between the Equator and the poles influences
atmospheric stability, the strength of the jet stream and extratropical cyclones,–. Recent …

Climate in the Arctic region and northwestern Europe is strongly affected by the North
Atlantic Oscillation,(NAO), the dominant mode of atmospheric variability at mid-latitudes in …

We present a new gridded climate reconstruction for Europe for the last 12,000 years based
on pollen data. The reconstruction is an update of Davis et al.(2003) using the same …

In this letter we analyse the temporal development of physical population-driven water
scarcity, ie water shortage, over the period 0 AD to 2005 AD. This was done using …

A set of coupled ocean-atmosphere simulations using state of the art climate models is now
available for the Last Glacial Maximum and the Mid-Holocene through the second phase of …

• The sustained rate of increase over the past century in the combined radiative forcing from
the three well-mixed greenhouse gases carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous …

The Holocene thermal maximum, a period of relatively warm climate between 11,000 and
5,000 years ago,, is most clearly recorded in the middle and high latitudes, of the Northern …
