Zusammenfassung |
Estimates of climate conditions before the 19th century are based on
proxy data reconstructions or sparse meteorological measurements. The
reconstruction of the atmospheric circulation that prevailed during the
European Little Ice Age (∼1500–1850) has fostered many efforts. This
study illustrates a methodology, combining historical proxies and modern datasets
to obtain detailed information on the atmospheric circulation that
prevailed over the North Atlantic region during the Little Ice Age. We used
reconstructions of temperature gradients over France based on grape harvest
dates to infer the atmospheric circulation. We found that blocking situations
were more likely in summer, inducing a continental atmospheric flow. This
study advocates that the reconstructions of the past atmospheric circulation
should take this regime into account. |
