Holocene paleoenvironmental reconstruction from deep ground temperatures: a comparison with paleoclimate derived from the δ¹⁹O record in an ice core from the Agassiz Ice Cap, Canadian Arctic archipelago / Alan E. Taylor.
Title: | Holocene paleoenvironmental reconstruction from deep ground temperatures: a comparison with paleoclimate derived from the δ¹⁹O record in an ice core from the Agassiz Ice Cap, Canadian Arctic archipelago / Alan E. Taylor. |
Author(s): | Taylor, Alan E. |
Date: | 1991. |
In: | Journal of Glaciology. (1991.), Vol. 37(126) (1991) |
Abstract: | Changes in ground-surface temperature for past few hundred years have been derived from deep temperature profiles at three wells in Queen Elizabeth Islands, and compared with climatic history derived from oxygen isotope ratio measured in ice core from Ellesmere Island. Results suggest that surface temperatures decreased about 1000 years ago until Little Ice Age. About 100 years ago, they increased by 2 to 5K to reach today's values, while air temperatures increased by 2 to 3K, according to isotope record. Part of larger ground-surface temperature change may be due to other palaeoenvironmental effects. |
