Galapagos (E-Pacific, 1oS, 90oW, Dunbar et al., 1994):
367 years of coral 18O records from 1587-1953, with annual resolution. The intervals 1660-80, 1710-1800 and 1870-95 were found warmer than “normal”, whereas the intervals 1600-1660, 1680-1700 (LMM) and 1800-25 cooler than on average. 18O increases of about 0.1-0.15‰ heavier during LMM than between 1660-70 and 1705-50 is indicative for a cooling of 0.5-0.75K.
New Caledonia (SW-Pacific, 22oS, 166oE, Quinn et al., 1998):
335 years of coral 18O records from 1657-1952, with seasonal resolution. The records describe a brief interval of modest cooling in the late 17th century, with an annual mean SST about 0.2-0.3K cooler between 1680-1740 than between 1660-80 and 1740-50
Great Barrier Reef, Abraham Reef (SW-Pacific, 22oS, 153oE, Druffel and Griffin, 1993):
323 years of coral 18O records from 1635-1957, with bi-annual resolution. More positive 18O values (ca. 0.1‰) during the LMM, are consistent with lower SST’s of about 0.5K

ConclusionsConclusions
• 1675-1715 LMM was a significant winter climate anomalywell documented in Europe
coincident with solar anomalies
• Similar winter anomalies simulated in 1550-2000 AOGCM,forced transiently with anomalous solar output
and volcanic aerosol load
• In the model, the LMM appears as global phenomenonwith maxium effects on the Northern Hemisphere
in particular in the Labrador Sea
• Anomaly results of dynamical interplay of atmosphere and ocean
• Anomaly reminiscent of Great Salt Anomaly
