1] There is much uncertainty surrounding the mechanisms that forced the abrupt climate fluctuations found in many palaeoclimate records during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS)-3. One of the processes thought to be involved in these events is the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation ( MOC), which exhibited large changes in its dominant mode throughout the last glacial period. Giant piston core MD95- 2006 from the northeast Atlantic Ocean records a suite of palaeoceanographic proxies related to the activity of both surface and deep water masses through a period of MIS- 3 when abrupt climate fluctuations were extremely pronounced. A two- stage progression of surface water warming during interstadial warm events is proposed, with initial warming related to... |
