The Late Antique Little Ice Age, spanning the period from 536 CE to roughly 560 CE, saw temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere drop by a degree C in less than a decade. This rapid cooling is thought to have caused widespread famine, epidemic disease, and social disruption. The relationship between cooling and social disruption is examined here using a set of high-resolution climate and historical data. A significant link between cooling and social disruption is demonstrated, but it is also demonstrated that the link is highly variable, with some societies experiencing dramatic cooling changing very little, and others experiencing only slight cooling changing dramatically. This points to variation in vulnerability, and serves to establish the Late Antique Little Ice Age as a context within which naturalistic quasi-experiments on vulnerability to climate change might be conducted.

晚古董小冰河时代开始时的气候和社会变化

从公元 536 年到大约公元 560 年的晚期古董小冰河时代,北半球的温度在不到十年的时间里下降了 1 摄氏度。人们认为这种快速降温导致了大范围的饥荒、流行病和社会混乱。这里使用一组高分辨率的气候和历史数据来研究降温与社会动荡之间的关系。冷却和社会破坏之间存在显着联系,但也证明了这种联系是高度可变的,一些社会经历了剧烈的冷却变化非常小,而另一些社会经历的只是轻微的冷却急剧变化。这表明脆弱性的变化,
