Then they lugged them back to Ohio to begin independent study (IS) projects on characterizing the change in sea levels during the
last interglacial warming period.
If you look at the Holocene
interglacial warm period which has lasted for ~ 12,000 years you can calculate the real trend for 100's of years and even 1000's of years.
The glacial cycle and occurrence
of interglacial warm periods are commonly accepted as being influenced by the Milankovitch astronomical processes.
The following is in response to Rayâ s question: What causes the drop in CO2, as the earth cools, from
the interglacial warm period to the glacial coldest period?
The entire cycle for
the interglacial warm period is defined from the glacial maximum to the next significant low temperature minimum.
Figure 2 shows the correlation of four of
the interglacial warm periods.
The following is in response to Rayâ s question: What causes the drop in CO2, as the earth cools, from
the interglacial warm period to the glacial coldest period?
The earth has been in
an interglacial warm period for the past 12,000 years.
In 1993, Dansgaard and his colleagues reported that rapid oscillations had been common during the last
interglacial warm period — enormous spikes of cooling, like a 14 - degree cold snap that had struck in the span of a decade and lasted 70 years.
