Le connessioni tra quadri ambientali e fenomeni economici hanno visto di recente un crescente interesse. In un campo connotato da un così forte carattere interdisciplinare sono varie le difficoltà che si incontrano, non solo nello scambio... more
Values of δ13C are frequently reported with radiocarbon dates from organic materials. In C3 plants δ13C values have been linked to changes in water use efficiency as a response to arid conditions. By calculating 13C discrimination (Δ13C)... more
Defending the Defensible or Offending the Sensible? A Response to Nunn & Hunter-Anderson.
The loss of the Norse Western Settlement in Greenland around the mid-fourteenth century has long been taken as a prime example of the impact of changing climate on human populations. This study employs an interdisciplinary approach... more
The level of Cliff Lake, a small, subalpine, moraine-dammed lake in California’s south central Sierra Nevada, was approximately 5 m lower than present for 50 years or more approximately 600 years ago, this determined by radiocarbon dating... more
Data basis for these calculations is the oak tree-ring based reconstructed time series of May-June precipitation for the North Aegean and Northwestern Anatolia provided by Criggs et. al., 2007. A part of statistical analysis is based on... more
This multi-proxy paleoenvironmental study from Lake Sanabria (NW Iberian Peninsula), based on pollen, diatom, and sedimentology, provides evidences of climatic oscillations attributed to the Late Roman and Medieval Warm Periods as well as... more
We review the post-glacial climate variability along the East Antarctic coastline using terrestrial and shallow marine geological records and compare these reconstructions with data from elsewhere. Nearly all East Antarctic records show a... more
This one is about to be published. Stay tuned;).
The surface temperature changes for the last 4000 years in northern inland Iberia (an area particularly sensitive to climate change) are determined by a high resolution study of carbon stable isotope records of stalagmites from three... more
The genesis and development of the submerged notch occurring along the Northern Adriatic limestone coasts, surveyed at depth ranging between −0.35 and −2.8m and amplitude consistent with the local tide is discussed using new and published... more
The hypoxic zone in the Baltic Sea has increased in area about four times since 1960 and widespread oxygen deficiency has severely reduced macro benthic communities below the halocline in the Baltic Proper and the Gulf of Finland, which... more
