Reproducible climate reconstructions of the Common Era (1 CE to present) are key to
placing industrial-era warming into the context of natural climatic variability. Here we present …

A global compilation of glacier advances and retreats for the past two millennia grouped by
17 regions (excluding Antarctica) highlights the nature of glacier fluctuations during the late …

It has been difficult to access projections of global‐scale climate change with high temporal
resolution spaning the late Pleistocene and Holocene. This has limited our ability to discern …

Delineation of the boundary between the Last Interglacial (LIG) and the last (Wisconsinan)
Glacial Stage in North America represents a critical, yet unresolved issue. Subdivisions of …

Proxy data are our only source of knowledge of temperature variability in the period prior to
instrumental temperature measurements. Until recently, very few quantitative …

Palaeoclimatology provides our only means of assessing climatic variations before the
beginning of instrumental records. The various proxy variables used, however, have a …

Abrupt climate changes during the last glacial period have been detected in a global array of
palaeoclimate records, but our understanding of their absolute timing and regional …

The spectral characteristics of paleoclimate observations spanning the last millennium
suggest the presence of significant low-frequency (multi-decadal to centennial scale) …

Large glacier systems in Antarctica have existed at least since the Early Miocene. Glaciers in
the Patagonian Andes advanced in the Late Miocene and fluctuated several times during …

The timing of major glacial changes between Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5e and the
Younger Dryas chron (YD) in southern South America is reviewed. Focus is placed on …
