General Circulation Modelling of Holocene climate variability

Results from a series of Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) General Circulation Models (GCMs) are used to assess climate variability in the pre-anthropogenic Holocene, the interval following the end of the last glacial beginning roughly 11.5 kyr BP. In particular, we focus on the forced aspects of this variability. The principle forcings are orbital, solar, volcanic and events (such as ...
