Early Holocene winter air temperatures have been reconstructed for the northeastern part of the East European Plain using stable isotope (δ18O and δ2H) records of syngenetic ice wedges. We show that ice wedges here actively grew synchronously with accumulation of peatlands in bogged and forested dep...
