Speleothems are primarily studied in order to generate archives of climatic change and
results have led to significant advances in identifying and dating major shifts in the climate …

Speleothems are now established as important palaeoenvironmental archives and contain a
number of suitable proxies, although trace elements have been much less widely used than …

A better understanding of the relative roles of internal climate variability and external
contributions, from both natural (solar, volcanic) and anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcing …

Originally published in 1989, Karst Geomorphology and Hydrology became the leading
textbook on karst studies. This new textbook has been substantially revised and updated …

Understanding the relationships between speleothem stable isotopes (δ13C δ18O) and in
situ cave forcing mechanisms is important to interpreting ancient stalagmite paleoclimate …

Surface temperature is a fundamental parameter of Earth's climate. Its evolution through time
is commonly reconstructed using the oxygen isotope and the clumped isotope compositions …

Global warming is increasing mean temperatures and altering temperature variability at
multiple temporal scales. To better understand the consequences of changes in thermal …

Paleoclimate observations constitute the only constraint on climate behavior prior to the
instrumental era. However, such observations only provide indirect (proxy) constraints on …

Understanding the relationship between stable isotope signals recorded in speleothems
(δ13C and δ18O) and the isotopic composition of the carbonate species in the soil water is …

We present the updated Holocene section of the Sofular Cave record from the southern
Black Sea coast (northern Turkey); an area with considerably different present-day climate …
