Understanding the nature and causes of climate variability and change in the tropical
oceans—the heat engine of the global climate system—is limited by the relatively short …

Understanding the natural variability of the Earth's climate system and accurately identifying
potential anthropogenic influences requires long term, geographically distributed records of …

We compared the suitability of two skeletal materials of the Atlantic brain coral Diploria
strigosa for 230 Th/U-dating: the commonly used bulk material comprising all skeletal …

It is highly debated whether global warming contributed to the strong hurricane activity
observed during the last decade. The crux of the recent debate is the limited length of the …

This study examined the variations in the ratio of strontium-to-calcium (Sr/Ca) for two Atlantic
corals (Montastraea faveolata and Siderastrea siderea) from the Dry Tortugas National Park …

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 …

Decadal and multidecadal changes in the meridional overturning circulation may originate
from either the subpolar North Atlantic or the Southern Hemisphere. New records of carbon …

Proxy system models (PSMs) are an important bridge between climate simulations and
climate records prior to the period where instrumental observations are available. PSMs …

Proxy reconstructions of tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) that extend beyond
the period of instrumental observations have primarily focused on centennial to millennial …

The end of the last interglacial period,~ 118 kyr ago, was characterized by substantial ocean
circulation and climate perturbations resulting from instabilities of polar ice sheets. These …
