jesshill Posted October 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Nearing the end of the last Ice-Age the Earth experienced three extreme climate events; i.e. (Bölling-Allerød, Younger-Dryas and Pre-boreal warming periods). And, in all three cases, the consequences for planet Earth was also extreme. The purpose of this thread is to establish a catalog of ideas pertaining to the causes and effects of these events. All that we ask is that your comments stay on topic. The Bölling-Allerød interstadial was a sudden, intense, climatic warming (~12° C; ~21° F) period which caused dramatic melting of large Ice Age ice sheets that covered Canada and the northern U.S., all of Scandinavia, and much of northern Europe and Russia. Sea level that had been 120 m (~400 ft) lower than present rose quickly and submerged large areas that had been dry land during the Ice Age. This warming occurred abruptly in only a few years (Steffensen et al., 2008). This warm period ran from c. 12,800 to c. 10,900 (BCE). It ended abruptly with the onset of the Younger Dryas. The Younger-Dryas was a cold period that reduced temperatures back to near-glacial levels within a decade. It began about 10,900 (BCE) when global temperatures plunged sharply (~8°C; ~14° F), sparking a 1200-year period of glacial re-advance. Its end came abruptly with the onset of Pre-boreal warming about 9,700 (BCE). Pre-boreal warming began about 9,700 (BCE) when, almost overnight, global temperatures rose parabolically (~12° C; ~21° F), marking the end of the Younger Dryas cold period and the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age. The peak rise in temperatures was reached about 9,500 (BCE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep73 Posted October 17, 2018 #2 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I have two questions: 1) What is 0% on that scale? 2) Why does it not show after 8,000 BCE? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piney Posted October 17, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Warmup caused massive glacial lakes and lots of moisture in the air. It probably rained 360 days out of the year. (the way it does in Scotland) Bolling-Allerod happened Massive glacial lakes cut loose into oceans. Ocean current slowed down. Air dried up. Younger-Dryas happened. Simple enough for you?

danydandan Posted October 17, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) How do you determine past temperature from Ice-Cores? Also that data is older than I am, any updated charts? What's the base temperature or what's zero represent? Edited October 17, 2018 by danydandan 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's determined by the density of the ice (how it's compressed) and by its concentration of CO2. What I am wondering is what 0% is, and why 10,000 years are missing.

jesshill Posted October 17, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The chart was is featured in an article that I had read on ancient-astronomer.com titled "Younger-Dryas Period–Mystery Solved?". The author shows the chart as presented here and then, with a series of sine-waves in support his supposition. The scale is amplitude. Jess .

And why is the data not updated from 1979? Surely there are more up to date and accurate samples.

What I am wondering is what 0% is, and why 8000 years are missing. But how? I assume its the oxygen isotopes or something but is that really accurate? Would the temperature of the bore hole also provide markers to determine past temperature? Also I have to believe that the weight of the ice overtime compresses the lower layers, no? If it does the further you go back or farther you go down the less accurate these analyses become? So I assume there is a cut off point for accuracy, if so what is it.

jesshill Posted October 17, 2018 Author #10 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The zero-point on the chart according to Mr.Messick, the author of that article, is the apsidal equilibrium point as expressed in sine-waves. I don't remember if those were his exact words or not. Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a website that kinda confirmed my issues, there is only so far you can go back until weight compression of snow fall renders your core sample data inaccurate. Then you need to use radio carbon aging techniques apparently. And again the further you go back the less accurate it becomes, especially when dating that far back. I'd be skeptical about the accuracy of such data. Edited October 17, 2018 by danydandan 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if that's the case the lack of major shifts indicates what? It indicates that it's wrong. Because if it was it would be cycling no real shift occurred in the last 10,000 years according to this data. Can you explain that? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is pretty much North American geology 101. Im pretty sure apsidal motion isn't an astrological term. The writer means, apsis apsides which represent the nearest (periapsis) and farthest point of rotation around an object (apoapsis). The Earths eccentricity is like 0.01 or 0.02. which is basically a circle. So there isn't a massive definition or distance of apsis. I think it's 5million km? But the periapsis is summer and the apoapsis is winter. It happens every year. So the whole article is bunk.
