Ice core records from Antarctic and Greenland have revealed that the last deglaciation (ca. 19, 000 to 11, 000 years before present) was accompanied by an 80 ppmv increase in atmospheric CO2 and a sequence of large, hemispheric climate variations.
During the transition from the last glacial maximum to the present warm interglacial a sequence of large, hemispheric, climate changes took place: the Bølling‐Allerød and Younger … Dryas in the north and the Antarctic Cold Reversal in the south.
The event that occurred approximately 8200 years ago is the largest excursion in climate since the beginning of the Holocene. In this event we observe the climatic response to a perturbation which provides a probe with which to investigate the stability of interglacial climate.
