Holocene rainfall variability in southern Chile: a marine record of latitudinal shifts of the Southern Westerlies
TL;DR: In this paper, a high accumulation marine sediment core from the Chilean continental slope (41‡S) provides a 7700 yr record of rainfall variability in southern Chile related to the position of the Southern Westerlies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antarctic timing of surface water changes off Chile and Patagonian ice sheet response.
TL;DR: Marine sediments from the Chilean continental margin are used to infer millennial-scale changes in southeast Pacific surface ocean water properties and Patagonian ice sheet extent since the last glacial period, showing a clear “Antarctic” timing of sea surface temperature changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Holocene changes in the position and intensity of the southern westerly wind belt
Frank Lamy,Rolf Kilian,Helge W Arz,Jean-Pierre Francois,Jérôme Kaiser,Matthias Prange,Tatjana Steinke,Tatjana Steinke +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used sedimentological and pollen records to reconstruct precipitation patterns over the past 12,500 yr from sites along the windward side of the Andes, and found a distinct anti-phasing of wind strength between the core and northern margin over multimillennial timescales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mediterranean Moisture Source for an Early-Holocene Humid Period in the Northern Red Sea
TL;DR: It is concluded that Afro-Asian monsoonal rains did not cross the subtropical desert zone during the early to mid-Holocene and is best explained by enhancement and southward extension of rainfall from Mediterranean sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coherent high- and low-latitude control of the northwest African hydrological balance
Rik Tjallingii,Rik Tjallingii,Martin Claussen,Martin Claussen,Jan-Berend W Stuut,Jens Fohlmeister,Alexandra Jahn,Torsten Bickert,Frank Lamy,Ursula Röhl +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the development of the hydrological balance during the Pleistocene period and found that the change in humidity may be related to changes in the strength of the North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation.
