Parasites, paleoclimate and the peopling of the Americas: using the hookworm to time the Clovis migration
(University of Chicago, 2020)
Early Holocene greening of the Sahara requires Mediterranean winter rainfall
(National Academy of Sciences, 2021)
The greening of the Sahara, associated with the African Humid Period (AHP) between ca. 14,500 and 5,000 y ago, is arguably the largest climate-induced environmental change in the Holocene; it is usually explained by the ...
Efficiency of protected areas in Amazon and Atlantic Forest conservation: A spatio-temporal view
(2018-02-01)
The Amazon and Atlantic Forest are considered the world's most biodiverse biomes. Human and climate change impacts are the principal drivers of species loss in both biomes, more severely in the Atlantic Forest. In response ...
MID-HOLOCENE CLIMATE SIMULATIONS OVER BRAZIL USING THE ETA REGIONAL PALEOCLIMATE MODELSIMULAÇÕES CLIMÁTICAS DO HOLOCENO MÉDIO PARA O BRASIL UTILIZANDO O MODELO REGIONAL PALEOCLIMÁTICO ETA
(Instituto de Pesquisas Ambientais, Secretaria de Infraestrutura e Meio Ambiente/SP, 2023)
Paleoclimatic context of projected future warming in southern South America
(Springer Wien, 2020-04)
This paper describes changes of near-surface air temperature in southern South America from the Last Glacial Maximum (~ 21,000 years before present) to the end of the twenty-first century based on PMIP3-CMIP5 model ...
Dust fluxes and iron fertilization in Holocene and Last Glacial Maximum climates
(Amer Geophysical Union, 2015)
Mineral dust aerosols play a major role in present and past climates. To date, we rely on climate
models for estimates of dust fluxes to calculate the impact of airborne micronutrients on
biogeochemical cycles. Here we ...
Teleconnection stationarity, variability and trends of the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) during the last millennium
(Springer, 2017-11)
The Southern Annular Mode (SAM) is the leading mode of atmospheric interannual variability in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) extra-tropics. Here, we assess the stationarity of SAM spatial correlations with instrumental and ...
Facing unprecedented drying of the Central Andes? Precipitation variability over the period AD 1000-2100
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2015-08)
Projected future trends in water availability are associated with large uncertainties in many regions of the globe. In mountain areas with complex topography, climate models have often limited capabilities to adequately ...
Carbon isotope constraints on glacial Atlantic meridional overturning: Strength vs depth
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-04)
Despite its importance for climate and the carbon cycle, the deep ocean circulation during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) remains poorly understood. Whereas most studies suggest a shallower Atlantic Meridional Overturning ...
Dust transport enhanced land surface weatherability in a cooling world
(European Association of Geochemistry, 2023)
The weatherability of exposed silicate rocks drives the efficiency of climatic feedback on the geological carbon cycle through silicate weathering. However, the controls and evolution of land surface weatherability are not ...
