Description :
This paper presents a noble gas paleoemperature record derived from two aquifers in the San Juan Basin, which, in combination with data from the Carrizo aquifer in southern Texas, provides insight into climate change in the southwestern United States during the last glacial maximum (LGM). Paleotemperatures for the San Juan Basin can also be used to better understand other paleoclimatic indicators, in particular the altitude of snowlines that may not only be influenced by changes in temperature, but also by changes in seasonality and precipitation.
