An oxygen isotope record of lacustrine opal from a European Maar indicates climatic stability during the Last Interglacial [PDF]
The penultimate temperate period, 127–110 ka before present (BP), bracketed by abrupt shifts of the global climate system initiating and terminating it, is considered as an analogue of the Holocene because of a similar low global ice‐volume.
