- International meeting on paleoclimate: change and adaptationPublication . Reis, Rui Pena dos; Henriques, Maria Helena; Oosterbeek, Luiz; Rosina, Pierluigi; Alves, Eduardo Ivo; Garcia, Gustavo Gonçalves; João, PatríciaClimate is the planetary response of the atmospheric circulation to its changing composition, to the solar system configuration, to the Earth’s rotation and to the oceans’ and continents’ distributions. It displays, as a result, a restless moving pattern, expressed at a global scale by subsiding and uplifting convection cells. These changes have long been recognized and documented in geologic objects of all ages. In many rocks, different geologic features, fossil fragments and imprints, prehistoric remains and historic reports, there is a climate signal that can be analyzed and interpreted. All that information should be gathered in order to learn more about past climate changes. Lessons from the past support the view that deep change is the rule, not the exception, even where no reference is available, due to strongly contrasting extremes, chaotically defined by the whole ensemble of extra-planetary, external, and internal geodynamic controls. Science-based knowledge is crucial to face current challenges, which are focus for research within the UNESCO chair on Geoparks, Sustainable Regional Development and Healthy Lifestyles and the UNESCO chair on Humanities and Cultural Integrated Landscape Management, both partners in this international meeting, which has been organized by the Geosciences Centre and the Centre for Earth and Space Research of the University of Coimbra. This volume records the contribution of about seventy ongoing projects developed by research teams with a wide range of scientific backgrounds from different regions of the planet, who met at the University of Coimbra on the 18th-19th June 2019. The enriching discussions on paleoclimates in the Solar System, climate changes in geological time, climate memory in the geological record, climate changes and human adaptations throughout the Quaternary, and climatic events and human-environment interactions in the Holocene, indicate that the main objective underlying this initiative will have been fulfilled: to stimulate an observational attitude and to promote an open discussion on paleoclimatic signals in order to improve our look at the present and to ground future perspectives.
- Past climate changes and human adaptationPublication . Reis, Rui Pena dos; Henriques, Maria Helena; Oosterbeek, Luiz; Alves, Eduardo Ivo; Rosina, Pierluigi; João, PatríciaClimate is the planetary response of the atmospheric circulation to changes in its composition, the solar system configuration, Earth’s rotation, and the distribution of the oceans and continents. As a result, it is continuously evolving, expressed at a global scale by subsiding and uplifting convection cells. These changes have long been recognized and documented in geologic objects of all ages. There are climate signals in many rocks, different geologic features, fossil fragments and imprints, prehistoric remains, and historical reports that can be analyzed and interpreted in order to learn more about past climate changes. Lessons from the past support the view that change is the rule, not the exception, as evidenced by strongly contrasting and chaotic extremes, defined by the whole ensemble of extra-planetary, external, and internal geodynamic controls.
