Younger Dryas ice margin retreat triggered by ocean surface warming in central-eastern Baffin Bay [PDF]
High-resolution proxy records are essential for understanding the interactions between ocean, ice sheet and atmosphere. Here the authors present a high-resolution record of Younger Dryas sea surface conditions in Baffin Bay and show that ocean surface ...

Age models and the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis. [PDF]
Israde-Alcantara et al. (1) drew on interpretations of a core from Lake Cuitzeo, Mexico to support the Younger Dryas (YD) Impact Hypothesis. A key aspect of their study was identifying and dating the YD interval in the sediments. The authors stated that they recovered impact indicators from a 10-cm-thick zone dating to 12.9 kcal BP but provided no ...

Climate bifurcation during the last deglaciation? [PDF]
There were two abrupt warming events during the last deglaciation, at the start of the Bølling-Allerød and at the end of the Younger Dryas, but their underlying dynamics are unclear.

Maskevarri Ráhppát in Finnmark, northern Norway – is it an earthquake-induced landform complex? [PDF]
The Sami word ráhppát means rough bouldery/stony terrain with sharp-relief topography in Finnmark, northern Norway. Ráhppát is a common name in the region of the Younger Dryas landforms, yet the origin of ráhppát has remained obscure.

Evaluating the link between the sulfur-rich Laacher See volcanic eruption and the Younger Dryas climate anomaly [PDF]
The Younger Dryas is considered the archetypal millennial-scale climate change event, and identifying its cause is fundamental for thoroughly understanding climate systematics during deglaciations.

Eastern Mediterranean water outflow during the Younger Dryas was twice that of the present day
Eastern Mediterranean deep-intermediate convection was highly sensitive to varying inputs of fresh water fluxes associated with increased rainfall during the African Humid period (15-6 kyr Before Present). Here we investigate changes in the water-outflow

Illuminating Intcal During the Younger Dryas [PDF]
ABSTRACTAs the worldwide standard for radiocarbon (14C) dating over the past ca. 50,000 years, the International Calibration Curve (IntCal) is continuously improving towards higher resolution and replication. Tree-ring-based 14C measurements provide absolute dating throughout most of the Holocene, although high-precision data are limited for the ...
