Sub-Milankovitch climatic cycles in Holocene stalagmites from Sauerland, Germany
Calcitic stalagmites from caves in the Sauerland, Germany, prove the existence of sub-Milankovitch cycles in precipitation during the last 6000 yr. The N18O record dated with Th/U is interpreted as an indicator of paleohumidity. Spectral analysis of N18O from 6000 a BP up to the recent top of a stal...
