The Economic Effects of Long-Term Climate Change: Evidence from the Little Ice Age, 1500-1750
Understanding the economic effects of long-term and gradual climate change, when people have time to adapt, is a central question in the current debate on climate change. Empirical evidence, however, is scarce. I study the economic effects of climate change over a period of 250 years during the Little Ice Age, a historical episode of climate change, between 1500 and 1750. Historians have argued...

متن کاملA 33,000 year record of environmental change from Arolik Lake, Ahklun Mountains, Alaska, USA
A continuous record of lacustrine sedimentation capturing the entire full-glacial period was obtained from Arolik Lake in the Ahklun Mountains, southwestern Alaska. Fluctuations in magnetic susceptibility (MS), grain size, organic-matter (OM) content, C/N ratios, C, and biogenic silica (BSi) record marked environmental changes within the lake and its watershed during the last 33 cal ka. Age con...
متن کاملRapid viscoelastic uplift in southeast Alaska caused by post-Little Ice Age glacial retreat
Our observations show that extreme uplift in southeast Alaska began about 1770 AD, with relative sea level (RSL) change to 5.7 m and current uplift rates to 32 mm/yr. This region experienced widespread glacial melting following the Little Ice Age (LIA), with the collapse of the Glacier Bay Icefield alone equivalent to 8 mm of global sea level rise. Geodynamic modelling links the uplift to post-...
متن کاملAge and Petrogenesis of the Shumagin Batholith in Western Chugach-prince William Terrane, Alaska
The Shumagin batholith is part of the Sanak-Baranof plutonic belt in Southwest Alaska that extends approximately 2200km from Sanak Island in the west to Baranof Island in the east. (Hudson, 1979; Hudson et al., 1979; Hill et al., 1980; Bradley et al., 2000; Haeussler et al., 2003). Previous work has indicated that the crystallization ages of the Sanak-Baranof plutons young from west to east. Th...
