Downcore counting of laminations in varved sediments offers a direct and incremental
dating technique for high-resolution climatic and environmental archives with at least annual …

We constructed a varve data base (VDB) to study the worldwide distribution of varved
sediment records and the fidelity of their varve chronologies. Clusters of lakes with varved …

The Holocene is probably the most intensively studied series/epoch within the geological
record, and embodies a wide array of geomorphological, climatic, biotic and archaeological …

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 …

This paper presents a review on more than hundred years of palaeoenvironmental research
in Sweden; from early descriptions of peat and tufa deposits in the late nineteenth and early …

This chapter summarises the climatic and environmental information that can be inferred
from proxy archives over the past 12,000 years. The proxy archives from continental and …

The Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project (PMIP3) now includes the 8.2 ka event
as a test of model sensitivity to North Atlantic freshwater forcing. To provide benchmarks for …

Dates of tsunami deposits have been used to estimate paleotsunami recurrence intervals in
areas affected by these natural events. The depositional age of tsunami deposits is …

Abstract Knowledge about the timing, amplitude and spatial gradients of Holocene
environmental variability in the circum-Baltic region is key to understanding its responses to …

High-resolution sediment chronologies with the best possible time control are essential for
comparing palaeoecological studies with independent high-precision climatic …
