Review and direct evidence of transgressive aeolian sand sheet and dunefield initiation

Patrick A. Hesp et al.

Summary: This study reviews and discusses multiple hypotheses regarding the initiation of transgressive aeolian sand sheets and dunefields. Direct evidence supporting these hypotheses is largely lacking. However, research in South Australia provides unequivocal evidence that large-scale shoreline and dunefield erosion does lead to the development of a new transgressive aeolian sand sheet. The initiation process occurs at an incredibly rapid rate and may have implications for future sea level rise and climate change.

A speleothem record from Portugal reveals phases of increased winter precipitation in western Iberia during the Holocene

Alexa Benson et al.

Summary: During the Holocene period, the European climate experienced frequent changes in temperature and precipitation, with the North Atlantic playing a major role as a driver for the climate in Western Europe and North Africa. Pressure gradients, circulation patterns, and jet stream positioning over the Atlantic have been suggested to influence precipitation patterns in Western Europe. Proxy data on changes in the Atlantic realm, such as temperature, pressure, water circulation, or jet stream, have provided inconsistent results regarding precipitation responses. This study presents a record of winter precipitation in Portugal based on speleothems, showing synchronous wetter conditions in Western and Southern Iberia during the early and mid Holocene, with increased winter precipitation in Western Iberia correlating with Atlantic cooling events.
