Journal ArticleDOI
The History of South American Tropical Precipitation for the Past 25,000 Years
Paul A. Baker,Geoffrey O. Seltzer,Sherilyn C. Fritz,Robert B. Dunbar,Matthew Grove,Pedro M. Tapia,Scott L. Cross,Harold D. Rowe,James P. Broda +8 more
TL;DR: During the deglacial and Holocene periods, there were several millennial-scale wet phases on the Altiplano and in Amazonia that coincided with anomalously cold periods in the equatorial and high-latitude North Atlantic, such as the Younger Dryas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tropical climate changes at millennial and orbital timescales on the Bolivian Altiplano
Paul A. Baker,Catherine A. Rigsby,Geoffrey O. Seltzer,Sherilyn C. Fritz,Tim K. Lowenstein,Niklas P. Bacher,Carlos Veliz +6 more
TL;DR: Sediment cores and down-hole logging results of deep drilling in the Salar de Uyuni show that at both millennial and orbital timescales, cold sea surface temperatures in the high-latitude North Atlantic were coeval with wet conditions in tropical South America, suggesting a common forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconstruction of past changes in salinity and climate using a diatom-based transfer function
TL;DR: In this article, a diatom-based transfer function was used for the reconstruction of past changes in salinity of lakes in the northern Great Plains region of North America, and applied the refined transfer function to a late-glacial and Holocene sediment record from Devils Lake, North Dakota.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical and biological trends during lake evolution in recently deglaciated terrain.
TL;DR: The results demonstrate a tight hydrologic coupling between terrestrial and aquatic environments during the colonization of newly deglaciated landscapes, and provide a conceptual basis for mechanisms of primary succession in boreal lake ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greater drought intensity and frequency before AD 1200 in the Northern Great Plains, USA
TL;DR: The authors presented a reconstruction of drought intensity and frequency over the past 2,300 years in the Northern Great Plains, based on lake salinity fluctuations inferred from fossil diatom assemblages.
