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

The cycling of carbon on Earth exerts a fundamental influence upon the greenhouse gas
content of the atmosphere, and hence global climate over millennia. Until recently, ice …

Water-stable isotopes in polar ice cores are a widely used temperature proxy in
paleoclimate reconstruction, yet calibration remains challenging in East Antarctica. Here, we …

In the modern climate, the ocean below 2 km is mainly filled by waters sinking into the abyss
around Antarctica and in the North Atlantic. Paleoproxies indicate that waters of North …

Two fundamental questions about the ice-age climate system await satisfactory resolution.
First, if summer solar radiation intensity truly controls the orbital signature of the last glacial …

The early part of the last deglaciation is characterised by a~ 40 ppm atmospheric CO2 rise
occurring in two abrupt phases. The underlying mechanisms driving these increases remain …

Dust deposition in the Southern Ocean constitutes a critical modulator of past global climate
variability, but how it has varied temporally and geographically is underdetermined. Here …

Abstract The Southern Ocean is widely recognized as a potential cause of the lower
atmospheric concentration of CO 2 during ice ages, but the mechanism is debated. Focusing …

Range shift is the primary short-term species response to rapid climate change, but it is often
hampered by natural or anthropogenic habitat fragmentation. Different critical areas of a …

During the last glacial period, the North Atlantic region experienced a series of Dansgaard–
Oeschger cycles in which climate abruptly alternated between warm and cold periods …
