Euro-Climhist. A Data-Base on past Weather and Climate in Europe and its Human Dimension
Entry ID:
EuroHistClim
Summary
Abstract:
The EURO-CLIMHIST (E-CH) database is a comprehensive tool for managing,
analysing and displaying climatic (high-resolution) proxy evidence from natural and documentary archives. At present more than 1.2 million records are already included. A selection of nearly half a million records is available on the internet, including data of the Late Maunder Minimum and Switzerland. The Late Maunder Minimum (LMM; 1675-1715) is an extraordinary interval in the historical climate record, with significant societal implications at least in Europe. It has been documented by historical sources as well as various proxy data. Beside it, almost the full dataset of Switzerland is available (1500 - 1863). Access to the EuroHist climate data is obtained through the EuroHistClim administrator.
