1. Holocene climate change in Arctic Canada and Greenland

Jason P. Briner^{a, ,} , Nicholas P. McKay^b, Yarrow Axford^c, Ole Bennike^d, Raymond S. Bradley^e, Anne de Vernal^f, David Fisher^g, Pierre Francus^{h, i}, Bianca Fréchette^f, Konrad Gajewski^j, Anne Jennings^k, Darrell S. Kaufman^b, Gifford Miller^l, Cody Rouston^b, Bernd Wagner^m

 •A synthesis of existing literature on Holocene climate change in Arctic Canada and Greenland.

•Warmest-to-coldest millennium temperature change in the Holocene in Arctic Canada and Greenland is 3.0 ± 1.0 °C.

•Thermal maximum conditions occurred earlier in high latitudes and at sites less influenced by North Atlantic circulation.

2. Periodicities in mid- to late-Holocene peatland hydrology identified from Swedish and Lithuanian tree-ring data

Johannes Edvardsson^{a, b, ,} , Florian Adolphi^b, Hans W. Linderholm^c, Christophe Corona^d, Raimund Muscheler^b, Markus Stoffel^{a, e, f}

 •Peatland tree growth reflects hydrological, environmental, and climatic changes.

•Peatland tree-ring chronologies from Sweden and Lithuania show common periodicities.

•Periodicities of 13–15, 20–22, and 30–35 years are repeatedly observed.

•Periodicities are likely linked to hydrological changes affected by NAO or AMO.

3. The environmental, archaeological and historical evidence for regional climatic changes and their societal impacts in the Eastern Mediterranean in Late Antiquity

Adam Izdebskia, , , Jordan Pickettb, Neil Robertsc, Tomasz Waliszewskid

•We review different types of evidence for climate change in Anatolia and the Levant.

•A drought (~350–470AD) contributed to local famines and a change in urban water use.

•A wetter period after ~470 AD correlates with settlement expansion in arid lands.

•Another drier phase occurred already after the crisis caused by the Arab invasions.

•It contributed to the long-term settlement decline in some parts of the region.

4. Evidence of resilience to past climate change in Southwest Asia: Early farming communities and the 9.2 and 8.2 ka events

Pascal Flohra, b, , , Dominik Fleitmanna, b, Roger Matthewsa, b, Wendy Matthewsa, b, Stuart Black

•We assess the impacts of the 9.2 and 8.2 ka BP climate events on Southwest Asian farming communities.

•We use over 3000 quality-checked 14C-dates in combination with archaeological evidence.

•No large-scale collapse/decline or migration took place at around 9250 or 8200 cal BP.

•There is some evidence for local adaptation, but not at all sites.

•Early farming communities in Southwest Asia were resilient to rapid climate change.

5. South Asian summer monsoon variability during the last ∼54 kyrs inferred from surface water salinity and river run off proxies

 D. Gebregiorgisa, , , E.C. Hathornea, A.V. Sijinkumarb, B.Nagender Nathc, D. Nürnberga, M. Franka

•Ba/Ca and δ18OSW records of Core SK 168 reveal distinct changes in SAM intensity.

•SAM over the Irrawaddy strengthened beginning at ∼18 ka leading observed changes in the Arabian sea by ∼2–3 kyrs.

•Peak monsoon strength during the mid-Holocene in the Andaman Sea consistent with model simulations.

•Changes in upper ocean stratification indicate limited influence of NH insolation.

6. A protocol for subsampling Late Quaternary coprolites for multi-proxy analysis

Jamie R. Wooda, , , Janet M. Wilmshursta, b

•Subsampling protocols are important in coprolite studies yet rarely reported.

•We present a protocol for subsampling coprolites for multi-proxy analysis.

•The protocol is designed to minimise the risk of sample contamination.

8. Relationships between solar activity and variations in SST and atmospheric circulation in the stratosphere and troposphere

9. High-resolution organic carbon–isotope stratigraphy of the Middle Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous Agardhfjellet Formation of central Spitsbergen, Svalbard

M.J. Koevoets^{a, ,} , T.B. Abay^b, Ø. Hammer^{a, b}, S. Olaussen^{c, b}

 •The Agardhfjellet Formation is dominated by a type III kerogen despite high TOC.

•The δ13Corg curve doesn't correlate with the type of organic material, TOC or Rock Eval Parameters suggesting a global signal

•The Agardhfjellet Formation does contain Oxfordian deposits.

•The δ13Corg curve correlates extremely well with other carbon–isotope curves. Allowing for biostratigraphical correlation.

•There are no tectonic complications, such as stratigraphic duplication, in the Agardhfjellet in Central Spitsbergen.

10. Ankylosaurian dinosaur palaeoenvironmental associations were influenced by extirpation, sea-level fluctuation, and geodispersal

 Victoria M. Arbour, , Lindsay E. Zanno, Terry Gates

•Ankylosaur remains are unevenly distributed in marine and terrestrial environments.

•Only in North America and Asia is this distribution statistically significant.

•In North America, this distribution is only significant in the Albian–Cenomanian.
