North American “warming holes” and European heat during abrupt Holocene cooling events in the Atlantic

Europe is rapidly warming but summer days have cooled in North America. Shuman and Stefanescu find parallel patterns during North Atlantic cooling events in the past 8000 years. Similar underlying processes may explain regional differences today.

Patterns and drivers of Holocene moisture variability in mid-latitude eastern North America

Thousands of years long droughts have occurred in eastern North America during the Holocene (past 12,000 years). The authors link the droughts to the impacts of the Laurentide Ice Sheet and the following period of warmer-than-present temperatures.

Conservation implications of limited Native American impacts in pre-contact New England

Modern land management often assumes that past human activity shaped iconic landscapes. This study finds that climate, rather than indigenous activity, controlled fire severity in New England, with open landscapes developing after deforestation for European agriculture.

Mid-latitude net precipitation decreased with Arctic warming during the Holocene

A reduced gradient in temperatures between low and high latitudes during the Holocene led to drier mid-latitudes.
