description: The Asian monsoon system affects more than half of humanity worldwide, yet the dynamical processes that govern its complex spatiotemporal variability are not sufficiently understood to model and predict its behavior, due in part to inadequate long-term climate observations. Here we present the Monsoon Asia Drought Atlas (MADA), a seasonally resolved gridded spatial reconstruction of Asian monsoon drought and pluvials over the past millennium, derived from a network of tree-ring chronologies. MADA provides the spatiotemporal details of known historic monsoon failures and reveals the occurrence, severity, and fingerprint of previously unknown monsoon megadroughts and their close linkages to large-scale patterns of tropical Indo-Pacific sea surface temperatures. MADA thus provides a long-term context for recent monsoon variability that is critically needed for climate modeling, prediction, and attribution.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Woodhouse and Lukas 2004 TreeFlow Colorado Streamflow Reconstructions

description: Water resource management requires knowledge of the natural variability in streamflow over multiple time scales. Reconstructions of streamflow derived from moisture-sensitive trees extend, in both time and magnitude, the variability provided by relatively short gage records. In this study, we present a network of 14 annual streamflow reconstructions, 300–600 years long, for gages in the Upper Colorado and South Platte River basins in Colorado generated from new and existing tree-ring chronologies. Gages for the reconstruction were selected on the basis of their importance to two of the largest Colorado Front Range water providers, who provided the natural flow data for the calibration with tree-ring data. The reconstruction models explain 63–76% of the variance in the gage records and capture low flows particularly well. Analyses of the reconstructions indicate that the 20th century gage record does not fully represent the range of streamflow characteristics seen in the prior two to five centuries. Multi-year drought events more severe than the 1950s drought have occurred, notably in the 19th century, and the distribution of extreme low flow years is markedly uneven over the past three centuries. When the 14 reconstructions are grouped into Upper Colorado, northern South Platte, and southern South Platte regional flow reconstructions, the three time series show a high degree of coherence, but also time-varying divergences that may reflect the differential influence of climatic features operating in the western U.S. These reconstructions are currently being used by water managers to assess the reliability of water supply systems under a broader range of conditions than indicated by the gage records alone.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Lake Malawi 24000 Year TEX86 Surface Temperature Reconstruction

description: The role of the tropics in global climate change is actively debated, particularly in regard to the timing and magnitude of thermal and hydrological response. Continuous, high-resolution temperature records through the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) from tropical oceans have provided much insight but surface temperature reconstructions do not exist from tropical continental environments. Here we used the TEX86 paleotemperature proxy to reconstruct mean annual lake surface temperatures through the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) in Lake Malawi, East Africa (9º-14ºS). We find a ~3.5ºC overall warming since the LGM, with temperature reversals of ~ 2ºC during the Younger Dryas (12.5 ka BP) and at 8.2 ka BP.  Maximum Holocene temperatures of ~29ºC were found at 5 ka BP, a period preceding severe drought in Africa. These results suggest a substantial thermal response of southeastern tropical Africa to deglaciation and to varying conditions during the Holocene.
description: The dataset is a paleotemperature reconstruction of mean annual surface temperature from the north basin of Lake Malawi, East Africa using the TEX86 paleothermometer. (TetraEther indeX of tetraethers with 86 carbon atoms). The age model for these cores is already available for previous Lake Malawi MP98 data sets on this website. TEX86 values are means of replicate analyses. All samples were measured at least in duplicate, half of samples were measured at least in triplicate.  The calibration equation used to calculate mean annual lake surface temperatures (LST) is LST=(TEX86-0.25)/0.017 with a calibration error of +/- 2 degrees C. Lake Malawi core M98-1P: 10º15.9'S, 34º19.1'E, water depth 403m. Lake Malawi core M98-2P:  9º58.6'S, 34º13.8'E, water depth 363m. Lake surface elevation 474m.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Griffin 2005 Salinas River Annual Flow Reconstruction

description: The Salinas River is the principal drainage of the south Coast Ranges of California. The lower Salinas valley is an important agricultural region facing severe groundwater depletion and salt water intrusion due to heavy withdraw for irrigation and municipal use. Groundwater recharge is driven primarily by winter precipitation and surface water infiltration. A 60-year record of estimated full natural monthly stream flow is available at Paso Robles in the upper basin, which exhibits dramatic inter-annual to decadal variability, including the epic drought of 1976-1977. Old growth blue oak (Quercus douglasii) woodland is widely distributed in and near the drainage basin of the Salinas River and the radial growth of this species is remarkably sensitive to annual precipitation totals. A new network of 500-year long blue oak tree-ring chronologies has recently been developed. These exceptional proxy time series are highly correlated with annual stream flow at Paso Robles and at other gauging stations along the river. A reconstruction of annual stream flow in the Salinas River indicates several single year stream flow deficits that equal or exceed the drought of 1976-1977, and extreme decade-long droughts more severe than any measured during the instrumental period from 1940-present. The prolonged dryness from 1571-1585 in the Salinas River occurred during the late 16th century megadrought across North America. A drought of this magnitude has important implications to agricultural and hydrological management in the drainage basin.
