Thomsen 2004) spanning the last glacial cycle provide compelling evidence of multiple reorganizations of the climatic system triggered by changes thought to originate in the North Atlantic region (Broecker et al. 1992; Clark et al. 2002). Sudden shifts in air temperature from a cool climate to interstadial values, known as Dansgaard-Oeschger events (DO), have been active most notably during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 3. Abrupt and large in amplitude, DO cycles operated on a millennial to centennial time scale and are best expressed in the North Atlantic region
