TLDR
In this paper, an examination of similar to50 globally distributed paleoclimate records reveals as many as six periods of significant rapid climate change during the time periods 9000-8000, 6000-5000, 4200-3800, 3500-2500, 1200-1000, and 600-150 cal yr B.P.

Mid- to Late Holocene climate change: an overview

TL;DR: The authors used selected proxy-based reconstructions of different climate variables, together with state-of-the-art time series of natural forcings (orbital variations, solar activity variations, large tropical volcanic eruptions, land cover and greenhouse gases), underpinned by results from GCMs and Earth System Models of Intermediate Complexity (EMICs), to establish a comprehensive explanatory framework for climate changes from the mid-Holocene (MH) to pre-industrial time.

Perception of climate change

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that extreme anomalies such as those in Texas and Oklahoma in 2011 and Moscow in 2010 were a consequence of global warming because their likelihood in the absence of Global Warming was exceedingly small.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and origin of Holocene cold events

TL;DR: In this article, a Holocene Climate Atlas (HOCLAT) is presented based on carefully selected 10,000-year-long time series of temperature and humidity/precipitation, as well as reconstructions of glacier advances.

Insolation values for the climate of the last 10 million years

TL;DR: In this article, new values for the astronomical parameters of the Earth's orbit and rotation (eccentricity, obliquity and precession) are proposed for paleoclimatic research related to the Late Miocene, the Pliocene and the Quaternary.

A Pervasive Millennial-Scale Cycle in North Atlantic Holocene and Glacial Climates

TL;DR: In this paper, the North Atlantic deep sea cores reveal that abrupt shifts punctuated what is conventionally thought to have been a relatively stable Holocene climate, and they make up a series of climate shifts with a cyclicity close to 1470 ± 500 years, which is the most recent manifestation of a pervasive millennial-scale climate cycle operating independently of the glacial-interglacial climate state.

Persistent Solar Influence on North Atlantic Climate During the Holocene

TL;DR: A solar forcing mechanism therefore may underlie at least the Holocene segment of the North Atlantic's “1500-year” cycle, potentially providing an additional mechanism for amplifying the solar signals and transmitting them globally.

Southward Migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone Through the Holocene

TL;DR: The Cariaco Basin record exhibits strong correlations with climate records from distant regions, including the high-latitude Northern Hemisphere, providing evidence for global teleconnections among regional climates.
