Researchers Develop New Model of Ice Volume Change Based on Earth's Orbital Patterns 23 June 2006 Researchers Develop New Model of Ice Volume Change Based on Earth's Orbital Patterns 23 June 2006 Through dated geological records scientists have Raymo and Lisiecki are proposing that during this known for decades that variations in the Earth’s time, ice volume changes occurred in both the orbit around the sun – subtle changes in the Northern Hemisphere and Antarctica, each distance between the two – control ice ages. But, controlled by different amounts of local summer for the first 2 million years of the Northern insolation paced by precession. Hemisphere Ice Age there has always been a mismatch between the timing of ice sheet changes “The reason the frequency is not observable in and the Earth’s orbital parameters. records is because ice volume change occurred at both poles, but out of phase with each other. When A new model of ice volume change developed by ice was growing in the Northern Hemisphere, it was Maureen Raymo and Lorraine Lisiecki, researchers melting in the Southern,” said Raymo. in Boston University's Department of Earth Sciences, proposes a reason for this discrepancy. The team believes scientists have been operating Like other models, it is consistent with traditional under the assumption that Antarctica has been Milankovitch theory – which holds that the three exceptionally stable for 3 million years and very cyclical changes in the Earth’s orbit around the difficult to change climatically. Sun (obliquity, precession, and eccentricity) influence the severity of seasons and high latitude “We don’t tend to think of ice volume in that region temperatures over time. However, the new model as varying significantly, even on geologic time differs from earlier ones in that it allows for a much scales,” said Raymo. “However, only a modest more dynamic Antarctic ice sheet. change in Antarctic ice mass is required to “cancel” a much larger Northern ice volume According to the researchers, from 3 million years signal.” ago to about 0.8 million years ago, Northern Hemisphere ice volume appears to have varied Records used to measure the ice volume, such as mostly with the 41,000 year period of obliquity – sea levels, integrate the whole world. According to the periodic shift in the direction or tilt of Earth’s Raymo, the new model demonstrates that while the axis. However, summer insolation (incoming solar precession frequency is actually strong in ice radiation), which is widely believed to be the major volume changes at each pole, in geologic records, influence on high-latitude climate and ice volume Northern and Southern hemisphere ice volume change, is typically dominated by the 23,000 year trends act to cancel each other out at this precessional period – the slow “wobble” of the frequency.

The paper, which was published online today and “Because summer insolation is controlled by will appear in an upcoming issue of the journal precession, and summer heating controls ice sheet Science, proposes that the Antarctic ice sheet is mass balance, it is difficult to understand why the more dynamic and far more capable of change than ice volume record is dominated by the obliquity previously believed. frequency,” said Dr. Raymo. “It’s not a complete mismatch, but the precession frequency we think “If our theory holds true, it is a cause for concern should be strong in geological records is not.” with regard to climate changes not associated with 1 / 2 orbital patterns as well,” said Raymo.

  • Tipping Points That Could Lead to Abrupt Climate Change
    Tipping Points that Could Lead to Abrupt Climate Change IGSDIINECE Climate Briefing Note: September [], 2008 DRAFT FOR REVIEW 09/16/08 I. Introduction A. Summary The paleoclimate records show that past climate changes have included both steady, linear changes as well as abrupt, non-linear changes where small increases in global warming produced large and irreversible impacts once certain thresholds, or "tipping points", were passed. A non-linear tipping point is analogous to the final step one takes walking off a cliff. Once the step is taken, there is no going back. Abrupt climate change can produce potentially catastrophic impacts, such as the shutdown or reorganization of global currents, dieback of the Amazon rainforest, and collapse of the Greenland Ice Sheet. 1 Experts have concluded that anthropogenic forcing could increase the risk of abrupt climate change and that tipping points could be passed this century, or even this decade.2 If we continue emitting greenhouse gases in a "business-as-usual" scenario, permitting atmospheric carbon dioxide (C02) concentrations to rise 2-3 ppm every year, the question is not whether abrupt climate change will occur, but rather how soon it will occur.3 In fact, some experts conclude that 385 ppm, the current concentration of CO2, is already too high, and that we must return to 350 ppm if we want to preserve a planet similar to that on which civilization developed and to which humanity is adapted.4 Despite the certainty that abrupt changes have occurred in the past and could be triggered again in the near future, current climate change policy does not account for abrupt climate change.

I am particularly interested in the evolution of Plio-Pleistocene climate as it relates to orbital forcing, glacial cycles, the carbon cycle, and deep ocean circulation and in improving paleoclimate age models and quantifying uncertainty. My current research focuses on glacial changes in ice volume, the carbon cycle and deep ocean circulation and on quantifying/improving uncertainty in climate record and their age models.

Blame it, perhaps, on the Himalayas. Or on the evolution of grasses Seventy million years ago, the Earth was enjoying the greatest stretch of beach weather ever known. Dinosaurs tramped across Greenland. Palm trees swayed in the warm Canadian breezes. The ocean north of Siberia was almost suitable for skinny-dipping. Humidity and temperature were high all over the world and had been so, save a few interludes of relatively cool weather, for 500 million years. Then something began to turn down the global thermostat. The mercury dropped, and soon ice sheets started to form at the South Pole. The drift toward the great Cenozoic Ice Age--which Earth is still in the throes of--had begun. Scientists have long known about the giant ice sheets that the Cenozoic ushered in. Even in the mid-19th century they knew that glaciers had repeatedly raked swaths of Europe and North America in the not so distant past.

  • Target Atmospheric CO2: Where Should Humanity Aim?
    Target Atmospheric CO2: Where Should Humanity Aim? James Hansen,1,2* Makiko Sato,1,2 Pushker Kharecha,1,2 David Beerling,3 Valerie Masson-Delmotte,4 Mark Pagani,5 Maureen Raymo,6 Dana L. Royer,7 James C. Zachos8 Paleoclimate data show that climate sensitivity is ~3°C for doubled CO2, including only fast feedback processes. Equilibrium sensitivity, including slower surface albedo feedbacks, is ~6°C for doubled CO2 for the range of climate states between glacial conditions and ice- free Antarctica. Decreasing CO2 was the main cause of a cooling trend that began 50 million years ago, large scale glaciation occurring when CO2 fell to 425±75 ppm, a level that will be exceeded within decades, barring prompt policy changes. If humanity wishes to preserve a planet similar to that on which civilization developed and to which life on Earth is adapted, paleoclimate evidence and ongoing climate change suggest that CO2 will need to be reduced from its current 385 ppm to at most 350 ppm. The largest uncertainty in the target arises from possible changes of non-CO2 forcings. An initial 350 ppm CO2 target may be achievable by phasing out coal use except where CO2 is captured and adopting agricultural and forestry practices that sequester carbon. If the present overshoot of this target CO2 is not brief, there is a possibility of seeding irreversible catastrophic effects. Human activities are altering Earth’s atmospheric composition. Concern about global warming due to long-lived human-made greenhouse gases (GHGs) led to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (1) with the objective of stabilizing GHGs in the atmosphere at a level preventing “dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.” The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2) and others (3) used several “reasons for concern” to estimate that global warming of more than 2-3°C may be dangerous.
