Abstract. Paleoclimatic records provide valuable information about Holocene climate, revealing aspects of climate variability for a multitude sites around the world. However, such data also possess limitations. Proxy networks are spatially uneven, seasonally biased, uncertain in time, and present variety challenges when used concert to illustrate complex variations past climate. assimilation pr...

A large reservoir of bioavailable nitrogen (up to approximately 10(4) kilograms of nitrogen per hectare, as nitrate) has been previously overlooked in studies of global nitrogen distribution. The reservoir has been accumulating in subsoil zones of arid regions throughout the Holocene. Consideration of the subsoil reservoir raises estimates of vadose-zone nitrogen inventories by 14 to 71% for wa...

In the present work, well radiocarbon-dated Quaternary malacological and palynological analyses were implemented on 4 cm samples deriving from one of thickest best developed last glacial sequences Central Europe Madaras brickyard borehole Kolon Lake in southern part Hungary. Using a combination mollusc, anthracological, climatic proxies evidence preserved within loess, we demonstrate that long-...

Abstract. We present a record of melt events obtained from the East Greenland Ice Core Project (EastGRIP) ice core in central northeastern Greenland, covering largest part Holocene. The data were acquired visually using an optical dark-field line scanner. detect and describe layers lenses, seen as bubble-free throughout above bubble–clathrate transition. This transition is located at 1150 m dep...

The development of intense warm-core seclusion (Shapiro and Keyser 1990) extratropical storms can occur from several different precursor disturbances. These include tropical cyclones that have undergone extratropical transition, maritime extratropical cyclones with both coldcore baroclinic and shallow diabatically generated warm core backgrounds (Moore and Montgomery 2004), and polar lows. With...

Benthic foraminiferal assemblage data have been derived from a marine sediment core collected in cold-water coral (CWC) site off northwest Scotland (near the Wyville Thomson Ridge - WTR). The record covers last glacial period to late Holocene. Our reconstructions enable better constrain paleoenvironmental changes that took place study area since time and define environmental conditions allowed ...
