The late-glacial climatic warming indicated in the Greenland ice-core record about 14,685 years before 1950 AD belongs to a type of very rapid high-amplitude warming similar the onsets of Dansgaard-Oeschger events during marine isotope stage 3 (MIS 3). In order to estimate the nature and rates of ch...
