Modification and preservation of environmental signals in speleothems
Speleothems are primarily studied in order to generate archives of climatic change and
results have led to significant advances in identifying and dating major shifts in the climate …

The analysis of Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) relative sea-level indicators: Reconstructing sea-level in a warmer world
Abstract The Last Interglacial (MIS 5e, 128–116 ka) is among the most studied past periods
in Earth's history. The climate at that time was warmer than today, primarily due to different …

Wet periods in northeastern Brazil over the past 210 kyr linked to distant climate anomalies
The tropics are the main source of the atmosphere's sensible and latent heat, and water
vapour, and are therefore important for reconstructions of past climate. But long, accurately …

Low-temperature isotopic fractionation of uranium
CH Stirling, MB Andersen, EK Potter… - Earth and Planetary …, 2007 - Elsevier
Uranium is the heaviest naturally occurring element and isotope fractionation between 235U
and 238U is not normally considered significant given the small∼ 1% difference in mass. It …

Paleo sea levels reconsidered from direct observation of paleoshoreline position during Glacial Maxima (for the last 500,000 yr)
The drastic climatic changes which characterise the cooling trend of the last few million
years of Earth history led to variations in eustatic sea level that had tremendous impact on …

7. Eustatic sea level during past interglacials
M Siddall, J Chappell, EK Potter - Developments in Quaternary Sciences, 2007 - Elsevier
Eustatic sea-level variation is the primary index of global ice volume over glacial cycles.

Evidence for obliquity forcing of glacial termination II
Variations in the intensity of high-latitude Northern Hemisphere summer insolation, driven
largely by precession of the equinoxes, are widely thought to control the timing of Late …
