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 …

Palaeoenvironmental and archaeological data from several regions around the world show
evidence of a multi-centennial climatic event occurring approximately 4200ácal yr BP (4.2 …

The Holocene Thermal Maximum with peak temperatures prior to 7 ka BP is mostly
accentuated in the Northern Hemisphere, still visible in the Southern Hemisphere and …

Holocene abrupt cooling events have long attracted attention in academia due to public
concern that similar rapid changes may reappear in the near future. Thus, considerable …

The surface temperature changes for the last 4000years in northern inland Iberia (an area
particularly sensitive to climate change) are determined by a high resolution study of carbon …

Recent hydroclimate studies on the Iberian Peninsula have shown a complex regional
pattern in timing and intensity of climate change spanning the Younger Dryas and the …

We examine mid-to late Holocene centennial-scale climate variability in Ireland using proxy
data from peatlands, lakes and a speleothem. A high degree of between-record variability is …

Mid-to-late Holocene high-resolution testate amoebae-derived water table reconstructions
from two peatlands in the North of Ireland are presented. The proxy climate records are …

Evidence for a major climate event at 5.2 ka has been reported globally and is associated
with considerable societal disruption, but is poorly characterised in northwest Europe. This …

Scientists, historians and archaeologists are at last beginning to collaborate seriously on
studies of the long-term history of the environment. The fruit of an international conference …
