TL;DR: A record of global surface temperature from 80 proxy records is constructed and it is shown that temperature is correlated with and generally lags CO2 during the last deglaciation, supporting the conclusion that an antiphased hemispheric temperature response to ocean circulation changes superimposed on globally in-phase warming driven by increasing CO2 concentrations is an explanation for much of the temperature change at the end of the most recent ice age.

TL;DR: The first synchronously coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model simulation from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Bølling-Allerød (BA) warming reproduces several major features of the deglacial climate evolution, suggesting a good agreement in climate sensitivity between the model and observations.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Indian Ocean warming induces robust climatic anomalies in the summer Indo-West Pacific region, prolonging the El Nino's influence after tropical East Pacific sea surface temperature has returned to normal.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the evolution of the climate and precipitation δ18O for the last 21,000 years in models and observations, and proposed an interpretation of the Chinese ǫ18O record that reconciles its representativeness of the East Asia Summer Monsoon (EASM) and its driving mechanism of upstream depletion.
