Last millennium climate changes over the Antarctic Peninsula and southern Patagonia in CESM-LME simulations: Differences between Medieval Climate Anomaly and present-day temperatures
International audience This paper describes differences between Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA) and present-day temperatures in the area composed of the Antarctic Peninsula, southern Patagonia, and the surrounding southern oceans. The investigation is conducted with the simulation results from the Co...
