Past Climate Variability in South America and Surrounding Regions
From the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene
Av Francoise Vimeux, Florence Sylvestre m. fl.
Inbunden, 2009
1098 kr
Lägg i varukorg
South America is a unique place where a number of past climate archives are ava- able from tropical to high latitude regions. It thus offers a unique opportunity to explore past climate variability along a latitudinal transect from the Equator to Polar regions and to study climate teleconnections. …
