Speleothem growth and stable carbon isotopes as proxies of the presence and thermodynamical state of glaciers compared to modelled glacier evolution in the Alps
In recent years, glacier modelling proved to be an essential tool for simulating Quaternary
glacier evolution in the European Alps. Yet, only sparse empirical data mostly concentrated …
