The past ecology of Abies alba provides new perspectives on future responses of silver fir forests to global warming
Paleoecology can provide valuable insights into the ecology of species that complement
observation and experiment‐based assessments of climate impact dynamics. New …

Strengths and weaknesses of quantitative climate reconstructions based on Late-Quaternary
The importance of reconstructing past environments quantitatively in palaeoecology is
reviewed by showing that many ecological questions asked of palaeoecological data …

Atmospheric circulation over Europe during the Younger Dryas
The Younger Dryas (YD) was a period of rapid climate cooling that occurred at the end of the
last glaciation. Here, we present the first palaeoglacier-derived reconstruction of YD …

Holocene expansions of Fagus silvatica and Abies alba in Central Europe: where are we after eight decades of debate?
During the past eight decades contrasting hypotheses have been put forward to explain the
Holocene expansions of Fagus silvatica (beech) and Abies alba (fir) in Central Europe. The …

Model–data comparison for the 8.2 ka BP event: confirmation of a forcing mechanism by catastrophic drainage of Laurentide Lakes
AP Wiersma, H Renssen - Quaternary Science Reviews, 2006 - Elsevier
To improve our understanding of the mechanism behind the 8.2 kaBP cooling event, we
compare proxy evidence with climate model simulations in which the thermohaline ocean …

[HTML][HTML] Atlantic forcing of Western Mediterranean winter rain minima during the last 12,000 years
The limited availability of high-resolution continuous archives, insufficient chronological
control, and complex hydro-climatic forcing mechanisms lead to many uncertainties in …
