Unraveling the sequence of events and feedbacks at Termination III (T-III), including potential abrupt climate reversals similar to those of the last Termination, has been particularly challenging due to the scarcity of well-dated records worldwide. Here, we present speleothem data from southern Europe covering the interval from 262.7 to 217.9 kyBP, including the transition from marine isotope stage (MIS) 8 to MIS 7e. High-resolution d13C, d18O, and Mg/Ca profiles reveal major millennial-scale changes in aridity manifested in changing water availability and vegetation productivity. uranium–thorium dates provide a solid chronology for two millennial-scale events (S8.1 and S8.2) which, compared with the last two terminations, has some common features with Heinrich 1 and Heinrich 2 in Termination I (T-I). info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/CGL2016-77479-R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/CTM2013-48639-C2-2-R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 9.504 2017 MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENCES 5 / 64 = 0.078 2017 Q1 T1 6.092 2017 Multidisciplinary 2017 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion (orcid)0000-0001-7357-584X Moreno, Ana Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-1304-2264 Sancho, Carlos Universidad de Zaragoza Bartolomé, Miguel Stoll, Heather Cacho, Isabel Cheng, Hai Edwards, R.
