Arctic sea ice loss in past linked to abrupt climate events
Read more of: Arctic sea ice loss in past linked to abrupt climate eventsA new study on ice cores shows that reductions in sea ice in the Arctic in the period between 30-100,000 years ago led to major climate events. During this period, […]
