TL;DR: The recovery of a deep ice core from Dome C, Antarctica, that provides a climate record for the past 740,000 years is reported, suggesting that without human intervention, a climate similar to the present one would extend well into the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
A stratigraphic framework for abrupt climatic changes during the Last Glacial period based on three synchronized Greenland ice-core records: refining and extending the INTIMATE event stratigraphy

TL;DR: In this paper, a more detailed and extended version of the Greenland Stadials (GS) and Greenland Interstadials (GI) template for the whole of the last glacial period is presented, based on a synchronization of the NGRIP, GRIP, and GISP2 ice-core records.
Journal ArticleDOI
A 60 000 year Greenland stratigraphic ice core chronology
Anders Svensson,Katrine Krogh Andersen,Matthias Bigler,Henrik Clausen,Dorthe Dahl-Jensen,Siwan M. Davies,Sigfus J Johnsen,Raimund Muscheler,Frédéric Parrenin,Sune Olander Rasmussen,Regine Röthlisberger,Inger K Seierstad,Jørgen Peder Steffensen,Bo Møllesøe Vinther,Bo Møllesøe Vinther +14 more
TL;DR: The Greenland Ice Core Chronology 2005 (GICC05) as discussed by the authors is a time scale based on annual layer counting of high-resolution records from Greenland ice cores, which continuously covers the past 60 ka.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-Resolution Greenland Ice Core Data Show Abrupt Climate Change Happens in Few Years

TL;DR: A northern shift of the Intertropical Convergence Zone could be the trigger of these abrupt shifts of Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation, resulting in changes of 2 to 4 kelvin in Greenland moisture source temperature from one year to the next.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dust-climate couplings over the past 800,000 years from the EPICA Dome C ice core

TL;DR: It is proposed that the observed ∼25-fold increase in glacial dust flux over all eight glacial periods can be attributed to a strengthening of South American dust sources, together with a longer lifetime for atmospheric dust particles in the upper troposphere resulting from a reduced hydrological cycle during the ice ages.
