Sea-level rise due to polar ice-sheet mass loss during past warm periods
BACKGROUND Although thermal expansion of seawater and melting of mountain glaciers
have dominated global mean sea level (GMSL) rise over the last century, mass loss from the …

The recent emergence of Arctic amplification
Arctic Amplification is robustly seen in climate model simulations of future warming and in
the paleoclimate record. Here, we focus on the past century of observations. We show that …

Palaeoclimate constraints on the impact of 2 C anthropogenic warming and beyond
Over the past 3.5 million years, there have been several intervals when climate conditions
were warmer than during the pre-industrial Holocene. Although past intervals of warming …
