Increasing North Atlantic climate variability recorded in a central Greenland ice core

Greenland ice-core data show that the multiannual variability in North Atlantic climate has been increasing in the latter part of the Holocene. Statistically significant trends were established before the Industrial Revolution. A general inverse correlation exists between variability and temperature...

Description
Summary:Greenland ice-core data show that the multiannual variability in North Atlantic climate has been increasing in the latter part of the Holocene. Statistically significant trends were established before the Industrial Revolution. A general inverse correlation exists between variability and temperature, and may be linked to North Atlantic oceanic heat transport. © 1999 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
