The climate of last glacial period was extremely unstable and interrupted by about 24 distinct warming and cooling events. The events are generally termed Greenland interstadials and stadials1 or Dansgaard-Oeschger events (D-O) and they are most prominent in the Greenland ice core records, where they consist of an abrupt warming to warm interstadial conditions followed by a more gradual cooling and a rapid drop to very cold stadial conditions2. www.nature.com/articles/srep20535 |

So are we in line for a rapid drop? |

And if the Little Ice Age was misidentified as a Bond Event?  Game over! List of Bond events[edit] Most Bond events do not have a clear climate signal; some correspond to periods of cooling, others are coincident with aridification in some regions. No. Time (BP) Notes 0 ≈0.5 ka See Little Ice Age;[11] 1 ≈1.4 ka See Migration Period;[11] 2 ≈2.8 ka early 1st millennium BC drought in the Eastern Mediterranean, possibly triggering the collapse of Late Bronze Age cultures.[12][13][14] 3 ≈4.2 ka See 4.2 kiloyear event; collapse of the Akkadian Empire and the end of the Egyptian Old Kingdom.[15][16] 4 ≈5.9 ka See 5.9 kiloyear event; 5 ≈8.2 ka See 8.2 kiloyear event; 6 ≈9.4 ka Erdalen event of glacier activity in Norway,[17] as well as with a cold event in China.[18] 7 ≈10.3 ka 8 ≈11.1 ka transition from the Younger Dryas to the boreal.[19] |
