High-resolution climate reconstruction for the holocene based on growth chronologies of the bivalve Arctica Islandica from the North Sea
High-resolution climate reconstruction, North Sea, annual banded proxy, Arctica islandica. - Until now, there has been no published documentation of North Sea year-to-year climate variability during the last 8000 to 10000 years. High-resolution instrumental time series of climatic and environmental...

High-resolution climate reconstruction, North Sea, annual banded proxy, Arctica islandica. - Until now, there has been no published documentation of North Sea year-to-year climate variability during the last 8000 to 10000 years.
