[HTML][HTML] Temporal and spatial structure of multi-millennial temperature changes at high latitudes during the Last Interglacial

E Capron, A Govin, EJ Stone… - Quaternary Science …, 2014 - Elsevier
Abstract The Last Interglacial (LIG, 129–116 thousand of years BP, ka) represents a test bed
for climate model feedbacks in warmer-than-present high latitude regions. However, mainly …

A reconstruction of regional and global temperature for the past 11,300 years

SA Marcott, JD Shakun, PU Clark, AC Mix - science, 2013 - science.org
