Abstract

Ground temperature histories were inverted from temperature measurements in two deep boreholes (700 and 1000 m) in central France. The study has identified three main climatic episodes over the past 1500 years: (1) a climatic optimum at ca 1000 AD, (2) the little ice ages with a minimum at ca 1600–1700 AD, and AD, and (3) recent warming over the past 150–200 years. The results, which confirm a previously published analysis of past climate in France, exhibit trends similar to those found in other parts of the world.
