摘要: The last interglacial maximum (125 thousand years (ky) before present (BP)) is usually considered the warmest time period of 200 ky. This chapter reviews climate simulations for this focusing on agreements and discrepancies model results with each other evidence from paleoclimatic reconstructions. northern summer response reflects direct thermodynamic to increased insolation, models different complexities broadly agree both in simulated pattern magnitude. agreement worse winter: while simpler generally reflect insolation decrease, comprehensive show enhanced warming over regions continents as a result changes atmospheric dynamics. Such consistent warmth Yet, it also reproduced simple including dynamic terrestrial vegetation component climate–biosphere interactions, are fossil data. Thus exact interplay dynamics biosphere during still needs be clarified. advent components will hopefully contribute purpose.
