Characterizing the Eemian-Weichselian transition in northwestern Europe with three multiproxy speleothem archives from two Belgian cave systems (Han-sur-Lesse and Remouchamps)

International audience ; IInterglacial to glacial transitions represent the most drastic turnovers in the Quaternary climate system.Yet, millennial-scaled climate variability and stochastic internal variability that result in these transitionsremain still poorly understood. Here, three speleothem archives from two different cave systems inBelgium (Han-sur-Lesse and Remouchamps) are investigated using a multiproxy approach in order tocharacterize the last interglacial to glacial transition. The studied samples roughly span the periodbetween 125 ka and 100 ka, covering a large part of the Eemian... Mehr ...
