Revisiting the 10th‐Century Eldgjá Eruption: Modeling the Climatic and Environmental Impacts by Herman F. Fuglestvedt, Imogen Gabriel, Michael Sigl, Thorvaldur Thordarson, Kirstin Krüger

“…The combined tropospheric and stratospheric sulfur emissions are 3–8 times higher than those adopted for Eldgjá in existing paleoclimate simulations. Earth system modeling of this scenario under pre‐industrial conditions reveals a compound event with maximum northern extratropics surface cooling of ∼2°C in summer‐autumn of 939 and 940 CE, prolonged Arctic sea ice growth, and large‐scale precipitation changes, concurrent with stratospheric ozone depletion and elevated pollution. …”

A data-consistent model of the last glaciation in the Alps achieved with physics-driven AI by Tancrède P. M. Leger, Guillaume Jouvet, Sarah Kamleitner, Jürgen Mey, Frédéric Herman, Brandon D. Finley, Susan Ivy-Ochs, Andreas Vieli, Andreas Henz, Samuel U. Nussbaumer

“…Our results have implications for better estimating former ice velocities, ice temperature, basal conditions, erosion processes, and paleoclimate in the Alps. This study demonstrates that physics-informed machine learning can help overcome the bottleneck of high-resolution glacier modelling and better test parameterisations, both of which are required to accurately describe complex topographies and ice dynamics.…”

“…., Beq, Sr/Ba, and B/Ga) indicated the typical high-saline lacustrine water body, in which redox state was the oxic-dysoxic as suggested by multiple indicators. Many paleoclimate and weathering proxies suggest a dominant semiarid condition and low weathering degree in the Yecheng-Hetian Sag, which led to that weathered felsic rocks from the West Kunlun Orogen to the southwest of basin were quickly transported into the lake basin. …”
