The contributions deal with tropical, temperate and high latitudes climate variability in South America and in surrounding regions (including Pacific and Atlantic Oceans and Antarctica). It offers results obtained from both natural climate archives and recent simulations from coupled climate models. The objective is to propose a state of the art about our knowledge of past climate variability in South America. Specifically, this book aims at presenting the whole available observations and at discussing climate mechanisms, specifically the low to high latitude teleconnections on that continent which spreads out from the equator to Patagonia. It is written by an expert group of climate change scientists, and presents an insight into dynamics of the past and provides climate modellers with work of reference for data-model comparison. The book is an advanced but very readable text essential for all students and scientists interested in global environmental change ba0yba0 Past Climate Variability in South America and Surrounding Regions 139143858 ba0yba03 Vimeux Françoise 19..-.... 070 Meteorology/Climatology lc Earth Sciences, general lc Environment, general lc Geochemistry lc Geography lc Geochemistry lc Meteorology lc Environmental sciences lc Climatic changes lc Earth Sciences lc Climate Change lc Climatology lc Historical geology lc Paleontology lc Atmospheric sciences lc Environment lc Paleoclimatology South America lc 027302407 Paléoclimatologie 027375099 Amérique du Sud rameau Meteorology/Climatology Earth Sciences, general Geochemistry Earth Sciences Environment, general Climate Change Paleontology Climatology Atmospheric Sciences Historical Geology FR Abes 20251210 AFNOR
