摘要: [1] Ruddiman (2003) proposed that late Holocene anthropogenic intervention caused CH4 and CO2 increases kept climate from cooling preindustrial pandemics decreases a small cooling. Every aspect of this early hypothesis has been challenged: the timescale, issue stage 11 as better analog, ability human activities to account for gas anomalies, impact pandemics. This review finds trends are anomalous in all ice timescales; greenhouse gases decreased during closest insolation analog; disproportionate biomass burning rice irrigation can explain methane anomaly; half decrease since 1000 years ago. Only ∼25% anomaly can, however, be explained by carbon deforestation. The remainder must have come system feedbacks, including ocean remained anomalously warm because intervention.
