Resumen
En el Neotrópico existen registros paleoclimáticos marinos y continentales que sugieren la ocurrencia de condiciones relacionadas con el Período Cálido Medieval (MWP, ~800-1300 AD) y la Pequeña Edad de Hielo (LIA, ~1300-1800 AD). Sin embargo, la falta de sincronicidad en los eventos paleoclimáticos entre algunos registros (e.g. costeros y de los Andes), reflejan una respuesta geográfica variable al cambio climático. Se discuten aquí: (1) la complejidad de factores climáticos que modulan el clima tropical, (2) la diversidad de respuestas paleoclimáticas, (3) el sesgo debido al escaso número de registros paleoclimáticos en el Neotrópico, (4) las limitaciones de los métodos de datación y, (5) los impactos de los eventos del MWP y la LIA a escalas regionales. Finalmente sugerimos áreas prospectivas para futuros estudios.
