Last Interglacial climate and sea-level evolution from a coupled ice sheet-climate model Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven
As the most recent warm period in Earth’s history with a sea-level stand higher than present, the Last Interglacial (~130 to 115 kyr BP) is often considered a prime example to study the impact of a warmer climate on the two polar ice sheets remaining today. Here we simulate the Last Interglacial climate, ice sheet and sea-level evolution with the Earth system model of intermediate complexity LOVECLIM v.1.3, which includes dynamic and fully ...
