  <Summary>
    <Abstract>Millennium-old alerce trees (Fitzroya cupressoides (Mol.)
     Johnst.) have been used to develop a 1120-year reconstruction of the
     summer temperature departures for the Andes of northern Patagonia in
     Argentina. Four main climatic episodes can be distinguished in this
     proxy paleoclimatic record. The first, a cold and moist interval from
     A.D. 900 to 1070, was followed by a warm-dry period from A.D. 1080 to
     1250 correlative with the Medieval warm epoch of Europe. Afterward, a
     long, cold-moist period followed from A.D. 1270 to 1670, peaking around
     A.D. 1340 and 1650. These cold maxima are contemporaneous with two
     principal Little Ice Age events registered in the Northern Hemisphere.
     Warmer conditions then resumed between A.D. 1720 and 1790. These
     episodes are supported by glaciological and palynological data in
     Patagonia. Following a cold period in the early 1800s, tree-ring indices
     have oscillated around the long-term mean, except for a warmer period
     from A.D. 1850 to 1890. Correlations between the Rio Alerce
     reconstruction and the regional weather stations indicate that the
     tree-ring variations are correlated with a homogeneous summer weather
     pattern covering Patagonia east of the Andes from 38° to 50°S.
