Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-6825-3870 Temperature variability in the Iberian Range since 1602 inferred from tree-ring records 2017 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Tree rings are an important proxy to understand the natural drivers of climate variability in the Mediterranean Basin and hence to improve future climate scenarios in a vulnerable region. Here, we compile 316 tree-ring width series from 11 conifer sites in the western Iberian Range. We apply a new standardization method based on the trunk basal area instead of the tree cambial age to develop a regional chronology which preserves high- to low-frequency variability. A new reconstruction for the 1602-2012 period correlates at g''0.78 with observational September temperatures with a cumulative mean of the 21 previous months over the 1945-2012 calibration period. The new IR2Tmax reconstruction is spatially representative for the Iberian Peninsula and captures the full range of past Iberian Range temperature variability. Reconstructed long-term temperature variations match reasonably well with solar irradiance changes since warm and cold phases correspond with high and low solar activity, respectively. In addition, some annual temperature downturns coincide with volcanic eruptions with a 3-year lag. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/Clima info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/CGL2011-28255 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/CGL2015-69985 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.174 2017 METEOROLOGY & ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES 21 / 85 = 0.247 2017 Q1 T1 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 44 / 189 = 0.233 2017 Q1 T1 1.981 2017 Global and Planetary Change 2017 Q1 Stratigraphy 2017 Q1 Paleontology 2017 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Saz, M.A. Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-8979-0253 Cuadrat, J.M.
