Paleoclimate reconstructions describe a relatively cool multi-century phase, often termed the Little Ice Age, approximately from 1450 to 1850. This entry stops at 1750 because of the catalogue’s scope: neither onset, intensity, nor impacts were uniform across regions, and they are not automatically attributed to one forcing.
