Our limited knowledge of the timing and pattern of early Holocene climate variability in the
tropical Andes hinders our ability to evaluate any potential linkages between low and high …

Evaluating the timing and style of past glacier fluctuations in the tropical Andes is important
for our scientific understanding of global environmental change. Terrestrial cosmogenic …

In the latter stages of exhumation processes, rocks undergo weathering. Weathering halos
have been described in the vicinity of structures such as faults, veins or dykes, with a lateral …

This paper presents results of a study on the mechanical properties of sandy and gravely
soils within the Cordillera Blanca, Peru. The soils were divided into groups according to their …

The most heavily glacierized tropical range in the world—the Peruvian Cordillera Blanca—
has been losing ice since the end of the Little Ice Age (LIA). In this study, the decline of the …

Weathering zones of granitic rock masses are of particular interest in tropical climate regions
because of their morphologies and mineralogical properties. To address the lack of studies …

Surface processes and landforms in the Cordillera Blanca has been studied by several
research teams over the years, especially because of the various types of natural hazards …

Understanding future climate changes depends on knowledge of past fluctuations in the
climate system. Reliable measurement series of climate data from a few regions of the Earth …

Abstract Lundy Island, in the Bristol Channel of south-west Britain, holds a pivotal place in
understanding the extent and timing of Quaternary glaciations in southern Britain, in …

The paleoclimate archives of the tropics and marginal tropics from Mexico to southern Brazil
and their interpretation are presented and critically discussed. The importance of Quaternary …
