Heinrich events: Massive late Pleistocene detritus layers of the North Atlantic and their global climate imprint

SR Hemming - Reviews of Geophysics, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Millennial climate oscillations of the glacial interval are interrupted by extreme events, the so‐
called Heinrich events of the North Atlantic. Their near‐global footprint is a testament to …

[HTML][HTML] Sequence of events from the onset to the demise of the Last Interglacial: Evaluating strengths and limitations of chronologies used in climatic archives

A Govin, É Capron, PC Tzedakis, S Verheyden… - Quaternary Science …, 2015 - Elsevier

Ice melt, sea level rise and superstorms: evidence from paleoclimate data, climate modeling, and modern observations that 2 C global warming could be dangerous

J Hansen, M Sato, P Hearty, R Ruedy… - Atmospheric …, 2016 - acp.copernicus.org
We use numerical climate simulations, paleoclimate data, and modern observations to study

E Böhm, J Lippold, M Gutjahr, M Frank, P Blaser… - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
Abstract Extreme, abrupt Northern Hemisphere climate oscillations during the last glacial
cycle (140,000 years ago to present) were modulated by changes in ocean circulation and …

Ice-shelf collapse from subsurface warming as a trigger for Heinrich events

SA Marcott, PU Clark, L Padman… - Proceedings of the …, 2011 - pnas.org
Episodic iceberg-discharge events from the Hudson Strait Ice Stream (HSIS) of the
Laurentide Ice Sheet, referred to as Heinrich events, are commonly attributed to internal ice …

The role of the North Atlantic Drift in the millennial timescale glacial climate fluctuations

TL Rasmussen, E Thomsen - Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology …, 2004 - Elsevier
The Greenland ice core records show that the overall cold climate of the last glacial period
was repeatedly interrupted by short, rapid warmings. The events, known as Dansgaard …

Dynamics of the North American Ice Sheet Complex during its inception and build-up to the Last Glacial Maximum

CR Stokes, L Tarasov, AS Dyke - Quaternary Science Reviews, 2012 - Elsevier
The North American Ice Sheet Complex played a major role in global sea level fluctuations
during the Late Quaternary but our knowledge of its dynamics is based mostly on its demise …

A new mechanism for Dansgaard‐Oeschger cycles

SV Petersen, DP Schrag, PU Clark - Paleoceanography, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
We present a new hypothesis to explain the millennial‐scale temperature variability
recorded in ice cores known as Dansgaard‐Oeschger (DO) cycles. We propose that an ice …
