Destabilization of glacial climate by the radiative impact of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation disruptions

Abstract During each of the dramatic global warmings that ended the Pleistocene ice ages, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) was disrupted. It is not clear whether this was a contributing cause or simply an effect of deglaciation. Here we show that in an ensemble of simulations w...
