Resumen

La sensibilidad de los glaciares tropicales a las condiciones de temperatura fría durante la Inversión Fría Antártica (ACR, por sus siglas en inglés, 14.5-12.9 miles de años AP aprox.) ha sido ampliamente discutida. En 2014, un artículo científico revelaba una respuesta de los glaciares tropicales a la tendencia climática de la ARC (Jomelli et al., 2014); sin embargo, en 2015 nuevas producciones científicas cuestionaron la relevancia de tal conclusión. A partir de las nuevas producciónes se procedió a re-examinar las conclusiones previas, recalculando los resultados basados en cronologías 226 ¹⁰Be y 14 ³He. Para esta revisión, se seleccionaron 53 morrenas de 25 glaciares localizados en Colombia, Perú y Bolivia, entre los analizados por Jomelli et al. (2014) y se procedió a realizar dos cálculos diferentes. En primer lugar, se tuvo en cuenta la morrena más antigua y su incertidumbre para cada glaciar, de acuerdo con cinco períodos distintos abarcando ACR y Younger Dryas (YD): pre-ACR, ACR, ACR-YD, YD y post-YD respectivamente. Los resultados revelaron el predominio de señales pre-ACR, ACR en el 60% de los casos. Posteriormente, se contaron el número de morrenas por glaciar, teniendo en cuenta los diferentes grupos. 21 morrenas (40%) de los glaciares seleccionados corresponden con las cronozonas pre-ACR y ACR mientras que solo tres morrenas (5%) fueron datadas en los grupos YD y YD-Holoceno. Estos resultados sugieren que las morrenas son un proxy muy bueno para analizar la señal de ACR en los Andes Tropicales.
