Abstract The Southern Annular Mode (SAM) is the leading mode of extratropical Southern
Hemisphere climate variability, associated with changes in the strength and position of the …

We present PATICE, a GIS database of Patagonian glacial geomorphology and recalibrated
chronological data. PATICE includes 58,823 landforms and 1,669 geochronological ages …

2 Chapter 2 assesses observed large-scale changes in climate system drivers, key climate
indicators and 3 principal modes of variability. Chapter 3 considers model performance and …

Recent changes in the strength and location of the Southern Hemisphere westerly winds
(SHW) have been linked to continental droughts and wildfires, changes in the Southern …

This paper reviews current understanding of deglaciation in North, Central and South
America from the Last Glacial Maximum to the beginning of the Holocene. Together with …

Modes of climate variability affect global and regional climates on different spatio-temporal
scales, and they have important impacts on human activities and ecosystems. As these …

Abstract The Southern Hemisphere westerly winds (SHW) play an important role in
regulating the capacity of the Southern Ocean carbon sink. They modulate upwelling of …

Alpine glaciers are sensitive indicators of changes in climate, and their ubiquity in
mountainous regions make them valuable proxies for terrestrial climate reconstructions …

Robust glacial chronologies are needed to address the fundamental questions of when and
why Ice Age climates begin and end. Well-preserved glacial deposits left by large ice sheet …

Northern peatlands store globally-important amounts of carbon in the form of partly
decomposed plant detritus. Drying associated with climate and land-use change may lead to …
