Global Climate Variations Over the Past 250 Years: Relationships with the Middle East
We analyze recent global temperature reconstructions over several centuries in time based on calibrations of tempera-ture patterns against global networks of long instrumental and “proxy ” data (natural archives such as ice cores, corals, and tree rings), focusing on long-term climatic variations in...
