Palaeoclimate is the reconstruction and study of past climate states on Earth and other planets. Climate parameters such as precipitation, temperature, wind strength, and patterns of interannual ...

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Euro-centric HOLIVAR volume bundles remnants of palaeoclimate's history together with some exciting glimpses of its future, sometimes in the same chapter.

植物叶片形态特征（叶相）和功能反映了植物在生理和生态过程上的功能适应，进而能指示当地气候。木本双子叶植物叶相特征和气候因子之间存在显著的相关性。因此古植物学家利用叶相—气候模型定量重建新生代陆地古气候。植物叶相特征通常在不同植物习性（常绿和落叶）中表 ...

此外，该研究还就叶习性对利用叶相—气候模型定量重建新生代植物群古气候的影响展开了探讨。研究认为常绿和落叶植物叶相特征组合与气候的二次回归曲线表明，常绿物种的叶相特征对气候的响应与落叶物种存在差异（图?4）。这意味着，植物习性不仅会混淆叶缘—气候的相关 ...

Following a short period of postdoctoral research in CRU, I moved to a postdoctoral position at the Institute for Coastal Systems at the Helmholz-Zentrum Hereon, Geesthacht, Germany, where in 2005 I ...
