The thermal bipolar ocean seesaw hypothesis was advanced by Stocker and Johnsen
(2003) as the 'simplest possible thermodynamic model'to explain the time relationship …

More than a decade ago, ice core records from Greenland revealed that the last glacial
period was characterized by abrupt climate changes that recurred on millennial time scales …

Deciphering the evolution of global climate from the end of the Last Glacial Maximum
approximately 19 ka to the early Holocene 11 ka presents an outstanding opportunity for …

To understand how planet Earth works we study it increasingly as a system–a collection of
interdependent parts or spheres–the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, the …

During the period from 60,000 to 35,000 years ago, Summit‐Greenland ice core records of
the oxygen isotopic ratio 18O/16O exhibit intense millennium time scale oscillations. These …

It is widely recognised that the acquisition of high‐resolution palaeoclimate records from
southern mid‐latitude sites is essential for establishing a coherent picture of inter …

Two hypotheses have been put forward to explain the large and abrupt climate changes that
punctuated glacial time. One attributes such changes to reorganizations of the ocean's …

Ice-core records of climate from Greenland and Antarctica show asynchronous temperature
variations on millennial timescales during the last glacial period. The warming during the …

Recent ice core studies have raised the disturbing possibility that glacial–interglacial climate
changes may be non-uniform across Antarctica,. These findings have been confined to …

En este libro trato de ordenar en una sucesión cronológica los cambios climáticos más
significativos que han ocurrido en la Tierra desde sus orígenes hasta hoy mismo. Puede …
