This paper presents the paleocurrent evolution of Persian Gulf deep water (PGDW) during last 5000 years using faunal (foraminiferal assemblage) and non-faunal (magnetic susceptibility, sediment grain size, number coarse relict particles physicochemical characteristics) indicators from a 133 cm long core retrieved Strait Hormoz (SH). Our results suggest that precession-related insolation change ...

The water-energy balance of many mid-latitude watersheds has been changing in recent decades due to global warming. These changes manifest themselves over both long timescales (e.g., hydrologic drought) and short agricultural may be ameliorated or exacerbated by vegetative response. We apply a Budyko framework assess short-term response long-term trends water heat stress (HS) across North Ameri...
