title: Paleoclimate reconstruction based on speleothems from the Crimean Peninsula
abstract: The paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental conditions of Crimea are scarcely known due to the lack of high-resolution archives in this area. Crimean speleothems have a high potential of providing valuable information and filling the knowledge gap on the paleoclimate in the northern part of the Black Sea area.We acquired six well-dated stalagmite records from Crimean caves which grew during different intervals of the Holocene and MIS 3 with a good overlap, spanning from 2.7 (&amp;#177; 0.1) to 58.0
