| Abstract: | An extended narrative dataset of the Medieval time AD 708-1426 in continental western Europe was set up. Some 30-year-moving
mean seasonal temperature deviation series were reconstructed. A- warming trend occurred around AD 1200. During the warm stage,
seasonal cycle might be weak due to frequent cool summers. Significant warm summer conditions did not occur until the late
14th century, when the annual temperature level began decreasing. The mean warm season temperature level during the late 14th
to the early 15th century might be about 0.3°C higher than the present. It was suggested to cautiously comment on historical
climates for different seasons. |
