Age dating and the orbital theory of the ice ages: Development of a high-resolution 0 to 300,000-year chronostratigraphy

TL;DR: Using the concept of "orbital tuning", a continuous, high-resolution deep-sea chronostratigraphy has been developed spanning the last 300,000 yr as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the Structure and Origin of Major Glaciation Cycles 1. Linear Responses to Milankovitch Forcing

TL;DR: Starr et al. as mentioned in this paper showed that the 23,000 and 41,000-year cycles of glaciation are continuous, linear responses to orbitally driven changes in the Arctic radiation budget, and used the phase progression in each climatic cycle to identify the main pathways along which the initial, local responses to radiation are propagated by the atmosphere and ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the Structure and Origin of Major Glaciation Cycles .2. the 100,000-year Cycle

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present phase observations showing that the geographic progression of local responses over the 100,000-year cycle is similar to the progression in the other two cycles, implying that a similar set of internal climatic mechanisms operates in all three.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pleistocene evolution: Northern hemisphere ice sheets and North Atlantic Ocean

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed five high-resolution time series spanning the last 1.65 m.y. by tuning obliquity and precession components in the δ18O record to orbital variations, and devised a time scale (TP607) for the entire Pleistocene that agrees in age with all K/Ar-dated magnetic reversals to within 1.5%.
