Investigating hydroclimatic changes during key periods such as the Medieval Climate
Anomaly (MCA, 1000–1300 AD) and the Little Ice Age (LIA, 1400–1900 AD) is of …

We review evidence for climate change over the past several millennia from instrumental
and high‐resolution climate “proxy” data sources and climate modeling studies. We focus on …

Historically, the climate of the HKH has experienced significant changes that are closely
related to the rise and fall of regional cultures and civilizations. Studies show well …

In the fourteenth century the Old World witnessed a series of profound and abrupt changes
in the trajectory of long-established historical trends. Transcontinental networks of exchange …

A new temperature reconstruction with decadal resolution, covering the last two millennia, is
presented for the extratropical Northern Hemisphere (90–30° N), utilizing many palaeo …

There is a strong chance that 20th century warming will cause differences in precipitation
distribution, hydrological cycle and effective moisture changes over the globe. Arid central …

We present reconstructions of Northern and Southern Hemisphere mean surface
temperature over the past two millennia based on high‐resolution 'proxy'temperature data …

Drought is one of the likely consequences of climate change in many regions of the world.
Together with an increased demand for water resources to supply the world's growing …

This review of late-Holocene palaeoclimatology represents the results from a
PAGES/CLIVAR Intersection Panel meeting that took place in June 2006. The review is in …

Twentieth-century warming could lead to increases in the moisture-holding capacity of the
atmosphere, altering the hydrological cycle and the characteristics of precipitation. Such …
