“…For mid- to high-latitude (<span class="inline-formula">&gt;</span> 45° N) lakes, we find common <span class="inline-formula"><i>δ</i>¹⁸O_BSi</span> patterns among the lake records during both the Holocene and Common Era (CE). These include maxima and minima corresponding to known climate episodes, such as the Holocene Thermal Maximum (HTM), Neoglacial Cooling, Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA) and the Little Ice Age (LIA). …”
