Reconstruction of the climate variability of the past 500 years
is a topic of great scientific interest not only in global terms,
but also at regional and local levels. This period is interesting
on account of the increasing influence of anthropogenic forcing and
its overlap with natural factors. The Polish Climate in the
European Context: An Historical Overview summarises the results of
research into climate variability based on a combination of
instrumental, documentary, dendrochronological and borehole data
from Poland.
The first part of the book provides a Central European
perspective of research in these fields, which forms the general
background for a presentation of the state of the art of climatic
change studies in Poland during the past 500 years (Part 2). This
is followed by a selection of papers dealing mainly with different
aspects of climate variability in Poland and Central Europe (Part
3).
"This book is a valuable tool integrating Polish, Central and
Eastern European climate research into the global context. It is,
as such, a must for climate researchers worldwide." (Gaston
Demaree, Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium)
"This volume marks a significant step forward in our
understanding of European climatic history." (Christian Pfister,
University of Bern)"
