A paper published today in The Holocene finds “extraordinary droughts and floods were parts of the [entirely natural] climate variability” in Northwest China between 3200 and 3000 years ago during the mid-Holocene Climatic Optimum.
The paper examines sedimentary records to document flooding 4.5 to 5 times the size of the largest measured flood since 1934. The paper adds to thousands of others documenting natural ‘climate change’ and extraordinary ‘extreme weather’ prior to any possible effect of man-made CO2.
