The importance of input data quality and quantity in climate field reconstructions – results from the assimilation of various tree-ring collections

Franke, Jörg ; Valler, Veronika ; Brönnimann, Stefan ; Neukom, Raphael ; Jaume-Santero, Fernando

In: Climate of the Past, 2020, vol. 16, no. 3, p. 1061–1074

Differences between paleoclimatic reconstructions are caused by two factors: the method and the input data. While many studies compare methods, we will focus in this study on the consequences of the input data choice in a state-of-the-art Kalman- filter paleoclimate data assimilation approach. We evaluate reconstruction quality in the 20th century based on three collections of tree-ring...

Detailed detection of active layer freeze-thaw dynamics using quasi-continuous electrical resistivity tomography (Deception Island, Antarctica)

Farzamian, Mohammad ; Vieira, Gonçalo ; Santos, Fernando A. Monteiro ; Tabar, Borhan Yaghoobi ; Hauck, Christian ; Paz, Maria Catarina ; Bernardo, Ivo ; Ramos, Miguel ; Pablo, Miguel Angel de

In: The Cryosphere, 2020, vol. 14, no. 3, p. 1105–1120

Climate-induced warming of permafrost soils is a global phenomenon, with regional and site-specific variations which are not fully understood. In this context, a 2-D automated electrical resistivity tomography (A-ERT) system was installed for the first time in Antarctica at Deception Island, associated to the existing Crater Lake site of the Circumpolar Active Layer Monitoring – South ...

Last phase of the Little Ice Age forced by volcanic eruptions

Brönnimann, Stefan ; Franke, Jörg ; Nussbaumer, Samuel U. ; Zumbühl, Heinz J. ; Steiner, Daniel ; Trachsel, Mathias ; Hegerl, Gabriele C. ; Schurer, Andrew ; Worni, Matthias ; Malik, Abdul ; Flückiger, Julian ; Raible, Christoph C.

In: Nature Geoscience, 2019, vol. 12, no. 8, p. 650–656

During the first half of the nineteenth century, several large tropical volcanic eruptions occurred within less than three decades. The global climate effects of the 1815 Tambora eruption have been investigated, but those of an eruption in 1808 or 1809 whose source is unknown and the eruptions in the 1820s and 1830s have received less attention. Here we analyse the effect of the sequence of...
