An 8000-year multi-proxy peat-based palaeoclimate record from Newfoundland
Energy carried by warm tropical water, transported via the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), plays a vital role in regulating the climate of regions bordering the North Atlantic Ocean. Previous phases of elevated freshwater input to areas of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) production in the early to mid-Holocene have been linked with slow-downs in the AMOC and changes in regional climate. Newfoundland’s proximity in the North A…
A 1000-year reconstruction of summer precipitation from Ireland
Examining the uncertainties in a ‘tuned and stacked’ peatland water table reconstruction
Testing peatland testate amoeba transfer functions
Transfer functions are widely used in palaeoecology to infer past environmental conditions from fossil remains of many groups of organisms. In contrast to traditional training-set design with one observation per site, some training-sets, including those for peatland testate amoeba-hydrology transfer functions, have a clustered structure with many observations from each site. Here we show that this clustered design causes standard performance stat…
Dating the Glen Garry tephra
The distal Icelandic tephra known as the Glen Garry layer has been dated by AMS 14 C at eight ombrotrophic peat bogs from northern England and Scotland. The geochemistry of all the tephra layers is consistent with there being only one Glen Garry tephra, rather than two or more from eruptions of the same volcanic source. At seven of the sites, all in Scotland, the tephra layer was bracketed by 1 cm contiguous samples below, at and above the horizo…
