Precise interpolar phasing of abrupt climate change during the last ice age

Christo Buizert, +82 more
- 30 Apr 2015 - 
TL;DR: A north-to-south directionality of the abrupt climatic signal is demonstrated, which is propagated to the Southern Hemisphere high latitudes by oceanic rather than atmospheric processes, which confirms a central role for ocean circulation in the bipolar seesaw.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atmospheric gas concentrations over the past century measured in air from firn at the South Pole

TL;DR: The extraction and analysis of air from the snowpack (firn) at the South Pole provides atmospheric concentration histories of biogenic greenhouse gases since the beginning of the present century which confirm and expand on those derived from studies of air trapped in ice cores as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Onset of deglacial warming in West Antarctica driven by local orbital forcing

TL;DR: Results from a new, annually resolved ice-core record from West Antarctica suggest a more active role for the Southern Ocean in the onset of deglaciation than is inferred from ice cores in the East Antarctic interior, which are largely isolated from sea-ice changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Dole Effect and its variations during the last 130,000 years as measured in the Vostok Ice Core

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the record of variations in the Dole effect back to 130 kyr before present using data on the Vostok ice core, and discussed the significance of temporal variations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate Records Covering the Last Deglaciation

TL;DR: Comparison of the climate records from these cores suggests that, near the beginning of the last deglaciation, warming in Antarctica began approximately 3000 years before the onset of the warm B�lling period in Greenland.
