Atlantic hurricanes-Testing impacts of local SSTs, ENSO, stratospheric QBO-Implications for global warming (2009)

Arpe, K., Leroy, S. A. G.

Processes affecting hurricane development over the North Atlantic like the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the stratospheric Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (QBO) and Sea Surface Temperatures (SSTs)...

The Caspian Sea level forced by the atmospheric circulation, as observed and modelled (2007)

Arpe, K., Leroy, S.A.G.

The Caspian Sea Level (CSL) has experienced large fluctuations with wide-reaching impacts on the population on the coastal regions and on the economy. The CSL variability is dominated by the...

Glacial refugia for summer-green trees in Europe and south-west Asia as proposed by ECHAM3 time-slice atmospheric model simulations (2007)

Leroy, S. A. G., Arpe, K.

Aim To generate maps of potential refugia for summer-green trees during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). Locations Southern Europe and south-western Asia. Methods Time-slice simulations of the...

River inflow and salinity changes in the Caspian Sea during the last 5500 years (2007)

Leroy, S. A. G., Marret, F., Gibert, E., Chalie, F., Arpe, K.

Pollen, spores and dinoflagellate cysts have been analysed on three sediment cores (1.8-1.4m-long) taken from the south and middle basins of the Caspian Sea. A chronology available for one of the...

Late Quaternary palynology in marine sediments: a synthesis of the understanding of pollen distribution patterns in the NW African setting. (2006)

Hooghiemstra, H., Lézine, A.M., Leroy, S.A.G., Dupont, L., Marret, F.

After a review of the first steps in marine palynology, we show that the understanding of the northwest African setting is crucial to evaluate the potential of marine palynological studies elsewhere....
