What Bond showed is that there are quasi-cycles that Bond argued have the same cause as
the ones during the glacial period.

One example is the spotted hyena, which is living in Africa today, but which appeared also in Europe
during the
glacial period.
If I may add
one more speculative question: are the portions of
glacial sheets formed
during periods of high ice flux less stable, and more prone to calving, than those formed
during slow flux?
One such as Rajendra Pachauri's attack on an Indian scientist for pointing out for four years that the IPCC's claim on Himalayan glaciers was incorrect
during the
period that the consulting firm he led, TERI, was negotiating for a large contract to study the
glacial melting of Himalayan glaciers.
each
period of warming
during the descent to the next
glacial stage should be more intense than the previous
ones, as climatic variability increases outside the warm conditions of an interglacial climatic optimum.
Andre Droxler, a professor at Rice University and
one of the scientists analyzing the ancient coral, said that
during the last
glacial period, sea levels were almost 400 feet (120 meters) lower than what they are today.
I think there must be at least two factors interacting to achieve the necessary switches so that they offset
one another to minimise climate variability
during interglacials but supplement
one another to increase climate variability
during glacial periods.
