Hundreds of coral paleoclimate records have been developed over the past several
decades, significantly extending the instrumental record and improving our understanding of …

Abstract The approximately 10,000-year-long Last Glacial Maximum, before the termination
of the last ice age, was the coldest period in Earth's recent climate history. Relative to the …

Previous drilling through submerged fossil coral reefs has greatly improved our
understanding of the general pattern of sea-level change since the Last Glacial Maximum …

Sea surface temperatures and sea-ice extent are most critical variables to evaluate the
Southern Ocean paleoceanographic evolution in relation to the development of the global …

The Great Barrier Reef is the largest reef system in the modern ocean. To date, the influence
of temperature on the origin and long-term evolution of the Great Barrier Reef remains …

Quantitative estimates of natural climate variability are required to detect anthropogenic
climate trends in the tropical Pacific; however, instrumental records from this region are too …

Trace element abundances in corals can potentially provide high-resolution seasonally
resolved constraints on past sea-surface temperatures, much needed to improve our …

Abstract The Great Barrier Reef (GBR), Australia, has a long history of palaeoenvironmental
coral research. However, it can be logistically difficult to find the relevant research and …

The response of the hydrological cycle to anthropogenic climate change, especially across
the tropical oceans, remains poorly understood due to the scarcity of long instrumental …

Terrestrial temperature exerts a major influence on vegetation distribution, the hydrologic
cycle and many biogeochemical cycles. Yet little research into terrestrial paleo-temperature …
