Towards a rigorous understanding of societal responses to climate change
A large scholarship currently holds that before the onset of anthropogenic global warming,
natural climatic changes long provoked subsistence crises and, occasionally, civilizational …

Volcanic stratospheric sulfur injections and aerosol optical depth during the Holocene (past 11 500 years) from a bipolar ice-core array
The injection of sulfur into the stratosphere by volcanic eruptions is the dominant driver of
natural climate variability on interannual to multidecadal timescales. Based on a set of …

Fennoscandian tree-ring anatomy shows a warmer modern than medieval climate
Earth system models and various climate proxy sources indicate global warming is
unprecedented during at least the Common Era. However, tree-ring proxies often estimate …

[HTML][HTML] Prominent role of volcanism in Common Era climate variability and human history
Climate reconstructions for the Common Era are compromised by the paucity of annually-
resolved and absolutely-dated proxy records prior to medieval times. Where reconstructions …

High sensitivity of summer temperatures to stratospheric sulfur loading from volcanoes in the Northern Hemisphere
The 540s, 1450s, and 1600s represent three of the five coldest decades in the Common Era
(CE). In each of these cases, the cause of these cold pulses has been attributed to large …

Antarctic climate variability on regional and continental scales over the last 2000 years
Climate trends in the Antarctic region remain poorly characterized, owing to the brevity and
scarcity of direct climate observations and the large magnitude of interannual to decadal …
