TLDR
In this article, the influence of the glacial anticyclonic circulation attenuated through the late glacial period, and the Westerlies gradually shifted northward, such that drier conditions south of the ice sheet were confined to a progressively narrower zone and the Mediterranean became drier.About:

Observed climate variability and change
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors emphasise that the certainty of conclusions that can be drawn about climate from observations depends critically on the availability of accurate, complete and consistent series of observations.

Palaeo-moisture evolution in monsoonal Central Asia during the last 50,000 years
TL;DR: The late-Quaternary climate history of monsoonal Central Asia was inferred from 75 palaeoclimatic records which provide information about moisture conditions in the last 50-ka (or part of this period).

TL;DR: In this article, the mid-Holocene (MH, around 6 ka) and the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, around 21 ka) were compared with palaeoclimate simulations currently being carried out as part of the fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

TL;DR: In this paper, a unified circumpolar classification recognizing five types of tundra was developed, including the position of the forest limit and the distributions of the tundras types, using a small set of plant functional types embedded in the biogeochemistry-biogeography model BIOME4.

TL;DR: In this paper, an improved concept of the best analogs method is used to reconstruct the climate of the last glacial maximum from pollen data in Europe, using 15 pollen records.

The holocene- and upper pleistocene pollen record from Padul (Granada, Spain): A new study
TL;DR: In this paper, two borings were made at the site of Padul (Granada) and 200 spectra from two successive sequences, 14.8 and 8 m deep, enabled a description of the vegetational and climatic history of this region, the most southern one in Europe, from Early Wurmian times.

European lakes as palaeohydrological and palaeoclimatic indicators
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic field-based approach has been used at a number of sites in Europe to reconstructions of water-level changes in lakes from southern Sweden using geomorphic, sedimentological and biostratigraphic methods.

Reconstruction and regional correlation of Holocene lake‐level fluctuations in Lake Bysjön, South Sweden
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reconstructed lake-level fluctuations in Lake Bysjon from recorded changes in the sediment limit and the content of reworked minerogenic matter in sediment, which are related to past lake level fluctuations by correlation to fluctuations convincingly demonstrated in earlier studies.
