Welcome to my sandbox. edit

This is where I draft material to past into articles in the main space.

Adding new reference to article "Neopluvial" edit

This will be added as a penultimate paragraph:

These broadly synchronous patterns in the Great Basin were paralleled in the Rocky Mountains. High elevation lakes with small watersheds, particularly sensitive to a changing water balance, showed synchronous increase in lake levels from 6,000 to 5,000 years before present, centered at 5,700 years ago[1]. This shift was followed by abundant evidence of neoglacial cooling throughout the northern hemisphere. This cooling is primarily explained by steadily declining summer insolation, though synchronous patterns in hydrological responses at sub-millennial scales may be linked to atmospheric circulation shifts driven by factors such as vegetation changes and internal variability in ocean-atmosphere teleconnections.

Creating caption for wikimedia uploads edit

Selected paleoclimate and glacial-advance proxies from western Canada. Top: July and January insolation at 50°N, expressed as difference from today's values. Middle: Summer temperature reconstructed from fossil chironomid assemblages. Points indicate the temperature anomaly from a 0–2 kyr base period, and the smooth line shows a locally weighted (loess) smoothing in a 600-yr window[2]. Bottom: The LOI index is the Z score of the first principal component of the loss-on-ignition of sediments from four glacial-fed lakes in southwest British Columbia[3]. High values correspond to more clastic input and times of glacier advances. Times and relative magnitude of five glacial advances on Mount Baker, Washington, are overlaid on the LOI index[4]. Blue bars indicate time of regional glacial advances[3]. YDC=Younger Dryas Chronozone.[5]


I am paraphrasing something from an article here[6].

I am re-using this reference[6]
