The Little Ice Age in Iberian mountains

TLDR
This article investigated the magnitude and timing of climate variability during the Little Ice Age (LIA) in the mountains of the Iberian Peninsula, based on a wide range of natural records (including from glacial, periglacial, and lacustrine/peatland areas; fluvial/alluvial deposits; speleothems; and tree rings), historical documents, and early instrument data.

Documentary data and the study of past droughts: a global state of the art

TL;DR: Documentary evidence has been used to investigate past climatic trends and events, including general annals, chronicles, and diaries kept by missionaries, travellers and those specifically interested in the weather.

Climatic and social factors behind the Spanish Mediterranean flood event chronologies from documentary sources (14th–20th centuries)

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology for reconstructing historical floods based on cross-referencing documentary sources is proposed, together with additional archival work, which has allowed to increase the number of flood series for the Spanish Mediterranean coast by 17% and has generated a surprising increase of 233% in the count of flood cases detected.

Global Signatures and Dynamical Origins of the Little Ice Age and Medieval Climate Anomaly

TL;DR: The Medieval period is found to display warmth that matches or exceeds that of the past decade in some regions, but which falls well below recent levels globally, and the Little Ice Age is marked by a tendency for La Niña–like conditions in the tropical Pacific.

European seasonal and annual temperature variability, trends, and extremes since 1500.

TL;DR: Multiproxy reconstructions of monthly and seasonal surface temperature fields for Europe back to 1500 show that the late 20th- and early 21st-century European climate is very likely (>95% confidence level) warmer than that of any time during the past 500 years.
