Abstract
Holocene fluctuations of lake levels in the French Jura and sub-Alpine ranges and their implications for past general circulation patterns
Michel Mangy
306 - 313
Temperature and precipitation variations reflected in lake-level fluctuations in the French Jura and Pre-Alps during the last nine millennia are qualitatively assessed. Correlations between palaeoclimatic proxy data in the North Atlantic area from high and middle latitudes, and climatic dynamics illustrated in the `Little Ice Age' and the recent warming identify climatic oscillations due to solar activity. These oscillations correspond with two main types of circulation pattern that alternate over western Europe.
Micromorphological evidence of soil deterioration since the mid-Holocene at archaeological sites in Brittany, France
Anne Gebhardt
333 - 341
Presents data on the evolution of agricultural landscapes in Brittany from the end of the Atlantic chronozone to the medieval period (450~BC--AD~1600), using soil micromorphology in a multi-disciplinary palaeoenvironmental context.
The magnetic record of particulate pollution in a saltmarsh, Dee Estuary, UK
Simon M Hutchinson
342 - 350
A study of the history of polluting discharges from the estuary's iron and steel works up to the 1970s. Levels of iron oxide in marsh sediments were measured using their remanent magnetism and dated by 137Cs emissions from the Sellafield nuclear plant.
`Little Ice Age' glaciation of Tröllaskagi peninsula, northern Iceland: climatic implications for reconstructed equilibrium line altitudes (ELAs)
Christopher J Caseldine
Johann Stötter
357 - 366
Considers a discrepancy between observed and expected changes in the ELAs for glaciers on the peninsula over the last 150 years. The difference is accounted for by changes in precipitation: the rate of retreat of the glaciers due to rising temperatures since the `Little Ice Age' is thought to have been balanced by an increase in the rate of winter accumulation.
`Little Ice Age' summer temperature variations: their nature and relevance to global warming trends
Raymond S Bradley
P D Jones
367 - 376
A study of modern climatic trends that uses tree ring and ice core data to examine climatic variations during the latest period of glacial advances, commonly called the `Little Ice Age'. The coldest conditions of the last 560 years were between AD 1570 and 1730, and in the nineteenth century.
