Centennial-scale intensifications of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation during Heinrich Stadial 1
Partha Sarathi Jena, Cristiano Mazur Chiessi, Ines Beese, Martin Butzin, Bruno Dias, Marcia Carvalho Campos, Gerrit Lohmann, and Stefan Mulitza
A highly resolved proxy record and model simulations identify two short-lived AMOC intensification events during Heinrich Stadial 1, between 16.5 and 15.8 ka and around 15.4 ka. The announcement discusses rainfall shifts, northward heat transport, and atmospheric CO₂ implications.
Late Holocene monsoon-driven variability in sedimentary organic matter and lacustrine processes from Hulas Khera Lake, Central Ganga Plain, India
Anand Rajoriya, Srinivas Bikkina, Maneesha M. E. T., Arvind Singh, et al.
A ~4.6 ka lacustrine archive uses grain size, TOC–TN, carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes, and pollen to investigate hydroclimatic transitions, organic matter sources, land use, and lake–catchment processes in the Central Ganga Plain.

Tracking the Millennial Scale Variability of Deep Water Circulation and Lithogenic Influence in the Arabian Sea Over the Past 41 ka Through Nd Isotope
Arvind Shukla, Tapas Kumar Mishra, and Sumit Kumar Singh
A ~41 ka Arabian Sea record from SSD60-GC10 at 2,055 m water depth uses high-resolution (~400-year) Nd isotope records to examine changing deep-water influence, North Atlantic climate links, and lithogenic contributions.
Changes in pteropod assemblage driven by monsoonal variability and associated oceanographic conditions since the Last Glacial Maximum in the eastern Arabian Sea
Jeet Majumder, Anil K. Gupta, and Vipul Singh Rathaur
Pteropod assemblages, shell preservation, and shell size from core SK291/GC17 record monsoon-driven paleoceanographic changes over approximately 25,000 years in the eastern Arabian Sea.
Glaciation of the eastern Himalayas: Palaeoglacial and palaeoclimatic insights from the Dibang Valley, India
Shashank Nitundil, Christopher M. Darvill, Abi Stone, David Fink, et al.
Geomorphological mapping and ¹⁰Be cosmogenic nuclide dating reconstruct extensive Late Pleistocene glaciation in the Dibang Valley. The announcement describes the ~100 km Dri palaeoglacier and deglaciation associated with regional warming and changing monsoon precipitation.
The 8.2 Ka Abrupt Climate Event: Causes, Impacts and Future Implications
Yama Dixit and Aakanksha Kumari
An invited review analyses 256 paleoclimate records worldwide alongside climate model evidence to examine the timing, characteristics, and impacts of the 8.2 ka event and its relevance to future meltwater forcing.
