  1. 1. Speleothems from Warm Climates : Holocene Records from the Caribbean and Mediterranean Regions

    Författare :Meighan Boyd; Karin Holmgren; Ian J. Fairchild; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stable isotopes; U-Th dating; trace elements; stalagmite; speleothem; Mid-Holocene; Caribbean; ITCZ; rapid climate change; climate; Eastern Mediterranean; Peloponnese; Santorini; Neolithic; Alepotrypa Cave; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to increased knowledge on Holocene climate and environmental variability from two complex and sparsely studied areas. Using a speleothem from Gasparee Cave, Trinidad, as a paleoclimate archive, the local expression of the 8. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Asian monsoon over mainland Southeast Asia in the past 25 000 years

    Författare :Akkaneewut Chabangborn; Barbara Wohlfarth; Karen Kohfeld; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asian monsoon; ITCZ; palaeo-vegetation; palaeoclimate; lake sediment; Last Glacial Maximum; Holocene; Marine Geoscience; marin geovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this research is to interpret high-resolution palaeo-proxy data sets to understand the Asian summer monsoon variability in the past. This was done by synthesizing published palaeo-records from the Asian monsoon region, model simulation comparisons, and analysing new lake sedimentary records from northeast Thailand. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The Asian monsoon - 50-7 ka BP

    Författare :Akkaneewut Chabangborn; Barbara Wohlfarth; Jenny Brendefelt; Ludvig Löwemark; Richard Gyllencreutz; Rodrigo Caballero; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The Asian monsoon is one of the largest climatic systems on Earth. It covers an area from the Arabian Sea to the South China Sea and from northern Australia to northern China with the world’s highest population density. Moreover, the Asian monsoon transports heat energy and humidity to higher latitudes. LÄS MER

  5. 4. On Sahelian-Sudan rainfall and its moisture sources

    Författare :Abubakr A. M. Salih; Qiong Zhang; Michael Tjernström; Alessandra Giannini; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sudan; Sahel; rainfall; land use; deforestation; moisture sources; moisture transport; Lagrangian; moisture tagging; regional model; climate modeling; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Sammanfattning : The African Sahel is one of the most vulnerable regions to climate variability at different time scales. It is an arid to semi-arid region with limited water resources. The summer rainfall is one of these sources, but it exhibits pronounced interannual variability. This thesis presents several aspects of Sahelian Sudan rainfall. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Uncertainties in tropical precipitation and radiative feedbacks under climate change

    Författare :Alejandro Uribe Cortes; Thorsten Mauritsen; Frida Bender; Caroline Muller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Climate change; radiative feedback; tropical precipitation; tropical extreme precipitation; climate modeling; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi;

    Sammanfattning : Clouds have a significant impact on climate. They contribute to controlling the planetary energy balance, and the precipitation distribution. Global Climate Models (GCMs) designed to reproduce the state of the climate system, however, have difficulties representing clouds. LÄS MER
