Past Climate Variability through Europe and Africa

Past Climate Variability through Europe and Africa edited by Richard W. Battarbee, Françoise Gasse, Catherine E. Stickley.

This book provides a major synthesis of evidence for past climate variability at the regional and continental scale across Europe and Africa. It focuses on two complementary time-scales, the Holocene (approximately the last 11,500 years) and the last glacial-interglacial cycle (approximately the las...
