Stalagmite is one kind of secondary carbonates formed in limestone caves (speleothem).
After cave water droplets containing Ca 2+ and HCO _3^-HCO 3− drip onto floor, carbonate …

Evidence for climatic change across the North American Monsoon (NAM) and adjacent
areas is reviewed, drawing on continental and marine records and the application of climate …

A comprehensive database of paleoclimate records is needed to place recent warming into
the longer-term context of natural climate variability. We present a global compilation of …

摘要石笋是洞穴次生碳酸盐的一种, 是由含Ca 2+ 和HCO3 的洞穴滴水滴到洞穴地面后,
水中碳酸钙在一定条件下过饱和析出, 经年复一年沉积形成. 石笋是古气候研究的重要地质材料 …

The climatic controls on the stable carbon isotopic composition (δ 13 C) of speleothem
carbonate are less often discussed in the scientific literature in contrast to the frequently …

The ongoing 22‐year drought in the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB) has been
extremely severe, even in the context of the longest available tree‐ring reconstruction of …

Speleothems have become a cornerstone of the approach to better understanding Earth's
climatic teleconnections due to their precise absolute chronologies, their continuous or …

Abstract How fast the Northern Hemisphere (NH) forest biome tracks strongly warming
climates is largely unknown. Regional studies reveal lags between decades and millennia …

A likely consequence of global warming will be the redistribution of Earth's rain belts,
affecting water availability for many of Earth's inhabitants. We consider three ways in which …

Abstract Southwestern North America was wetter than present during the Last Glacial
Maximum. The causes of increased water availability have been recently debated, and …
