To provide a new reconstruction of the deglaciation of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, in the
form of calendar-year time-slices, which are particularly useful for ice sheet modelling, we …

A major puzzle of paleoclimatology is why, after a long interval of cooling climate, each late
Quaternary ice age ended with a relatively short warming leg called a termination. We here …

Although the dramatic climate disruptions of the last glacial period have received
considerable attention, relatively little has been directed toward climate variability in the …

A daptation refers to adjustments in ecological, social, or economic systems in response to
actual or expected climatic stimuli and their effects or impacts. It refers to changes in …

The ice sheet–ice shelf transition zone plays an important role in controlling marine ice
sheet dynamics, as it determines the rate at which ice flows out of the grounded part of the …

This third edition of Reconstructing Quaternary Environments has been completely revised
and updated to provide a new account of the history and scale of environmental changes …

Abstract The West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS), with ice volume equivalent to∼ 5 m of sea
level, has long been considered capable of past and future catastrophic collapse,,. Today …

This chapter assesses the current state of knowledge of the rate of change of global-
averaged and regional sea-level in relation to climate change. We focus on the 20th and …

Thirty years after oxygen isotope records from microfossils deposited in ocean sediments
confirmed the hypothesis that variations in the Earth's orbital geometry control the ice ages …

During the last glacial the ice sheet that subsumed most of Britain, Ireland and the North Sea
attained its maximum extent by 27 ka BP and with an ice volume sufficient to raise global …
