The present interglacial, the Holocene, spans the period of the last 11,700 years. It has
sustained the growth and development of modern society. The millennial-scale decreasing …

High-resolution oxygen isotope (δ18O) profiles of Holocene stalagmites from four caves in
Northern and Southern Oman and Yemen (Socotra) provide detailed information on …

This text, written by a leading researcher in the field, describes the origin and formation of
lakes in order to give context to the question of how lacustrine deposits form. It explains the …

An accurate representation of the spatial distribution of stable hydrogen and oxygen
isotopes in modern precipitation is required for many hydrological, paleoclimate, and …

Tropical paleoclimate records provide important insights into the response of precipitation
patterns and the Hadley circulation to past climate changes. Paleo-records are commonly …

During the last glacial period, large millennial-scale temperature oscillations—the
'Dansgaard/Oeschger'cycles—were the primary climate signal in Northern Hemisphere …

Changes in the strength and position of Southern Hemisphere westerly winds during the
Last Glacial cycle have been invoked to explain both millennial and glacial–interglacial …

We review the history of the South American summer monsoon (SASM) over the past~ 2000
yr based on high-resolution stable isotope proxies from speleothems, ice cores and lake …

This selective review of the Quaternary paleoclimate of the South American summer
monsoon (SASM) domain presents viewpoints regarding a range of key issues in the field …

The variations of tropical precipitation are antiphased between the hemispheres on orbital
timescales. This antiphasing arises through the alternating strength of incoming solar …
