Currently, global warming driven by anthropogenic factors such as the massive emission of greenhouse gases is gradually transitioning the Earth’s surface climate from a Quaternary glacial period to an interglacial or greenhouse climate, accompanied by ...

Astronomical forcing shaped the timing of early Pleistocene glacial cycles
Glacial cycles during the early Pleistocene are characterised by a dominant 41,000-year periodicity and amplitudes smaller than those of glacial cycles with ~100,000-year periodicity during the late Pleistocene. However, it remains unclear how the 41,000-

Abrupt changes in deep Atlantic circulation during the transition to full glacial conditions [PDF]
Six Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) sites, in the Northwest Atlantic have been used to investigate kinematic and chemical changes in the ‘Western Boundary Undercurrent’ (WBUC) during the development of full glacial conditions across the Marine Isotope Stage

Eastern Mediterranean surface water temperatures and d18O composition during deposition of sapropels in the late Quaternary [PDF]
Water column stratification increased at climatic transitions from cold to warm periods during the lateQuaternary and led to anoxic conditions and sapropel formation in the deep eastern Mediterranean basins.

Late Glacial and Holocene shore-level changes in the Aarhus Bugt area, Denmark
We propose a new relative shore-level curve for the Aarhus Bugt area, an embayment in eastern Jylland, Denmark, based on a compilation of published and new radiocarbon ages of organic material.
