Abstract: Transient climate model simulations covering the last 21 000 yr reveal that orbitally driven insolation changes in the Southern Hemisphere, combined with a rise in atmospheric pCO2, were sufficient to jump-start the deglacial ...

Abstract: The mechanisms leading to the onset of the African Humid Period (AHP) 14 500?11 000 yr ago are elucidated using two different climate?vegetation models in a suite of transient glacial?interglacial simulations covering the ...
