q |
The mid-deglacial pause in
|
|
|
ice melting was accompanied
|
|
|
by a brief climate osscilation
|
|
|
in records near the subpolar
|
|
|
North Atlantic Ocean.
|
|
|
q |
Temperature in this region
|
|
|
has warmed part of the way
|
|
|
toward interglacial levels, but
|
|
this reversal brought back
|
|
|
almost full glacial cold.
|
|
|
q |
Because an Arctic plant
|
|
|
called “Dryas” arrived during
|
|
this episode, this mid-
|
|
|
deglacial cooling is called
|
|
|
“the Younger Dryas” event.
