TLDR
An undisturbed climate record from a North Greenland ice core, which extends back to 123,000 years before the present, within the last interglacial period, shows a slow decline in temperatures that marked the initiation of the last glacial period.Abstract:

The holocene Asian monsoon : links to solar changes and North Atlantic climate
Yongjin Wang,Hai Cheng,Hai Cheng,R. Lawrence Edwards,Yaoqi He,Xinggong Kong,Zhisheng An,Jiangying Wu,Megan J. Kelly,Carolyn A. Dykoski,Xiangdong Li +10 more
TL;DR: A 5-year-resolution absolute-dated oxygen isotope record from Dongge Cave, southern China, provides a continuous history of the Asian monsoon over the past 9000 years, and shows that some, but not all, of the monsoon variability at these frequencies results from changes in solar output.

High-resolution carbon dioxide concentration record 650,000–800,000 years before present
Dieter Lüthi,Martine Le Floch,Bernhard Bereiter,Thomas Blunier,Jean-Marc Barnola,Urs Siegenthaler,Dominique Raynaud,Jean Jouzel,Hubertus Fischer,Kenji Kawamura,Thomas F. Stocker +10 more
TL;DR: It is found that atmospheric carbon dioxide is strongly correlated with Antarctic temperature throughout eight glacial cycles but with significantly lower concentrations between 650,000 and 750,000 yr before present, which extends the pre-industrial range of carbon dioxide concentrations during the late Quaternary by about 10 p.p.m.v.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new common stratigraphic timescale for the North Greenland Ice Core Project (NGRIP) and GRIP ice cores is presented, which covers the period 7.9-14.8 kyr before present and includes the Bolling, Allerod, Younger Dryas, and early Holocene periods.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the interplay between obliquity and precession accounts for the variable intensity of interglacial periods in ice core records.

TL;DR: The recent completion of drilling at Vostok station in East Antarctica has allowed the extension of the ice record of atmospheric composition and climate to the past four glacial-interglacial cycles.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a detailed stable isotope record for the full length of the Greenland Ice-core Project Summit ice core, extending over the past 250 kyr according to a calculated timescale, and find that climate instability was not confined to the last glaciation, but appears also have been marked during the last interglacial (as explored more fully in a companion paper), and during the previous Saale-Holstein glacial cycle.
