Understanding abrupt climate changes requires detailed spatial/temporal records of such changes, and to make these records, we need rapidly responding, geographically widespread climate trackers. Glacial systems are such trackers, and recent additions to the stratigraphic record show overall synchronous response of glacial systems to climate change reflecting global atmosphere conditions.
了解气候突变需要此类变化的详细时空记录,而为了获取这些记录,我们需要能快速响应、分布广泛的气候追踪器。冰川系统就是这样的追踪器,地层记录的最新补充显示,冰川系统对气候变化的总体同步响应反映了全球大气状况。
