Zusammenfassung |
We expand here the description of the Antarctic temperature variability
during the long interglacial period occurring ~400 thousand years
before the present (Marine Isotopic Stage, MIS 11). Our study is based on new
detailed deuterium measurements conducted on the EPICA Dome C ice core,
Antarctica, with a ~50 year temporal resolution. Despite an ice
diffusion of a length reaching ~8 cm at MIS 11 depth, the data allow us to
highlight a variability at multi-centennial scale for MIS 11, as it has
already been observed for the Holocene period (MIS 1). The differences between
MIS 1 and MIS 11 are analysed regarding the links between multi-millennial
trends and sub-millennial variability. The EPICA Dome C deuterium record
shows an increased variability and the onset of millennial to sub-millennial
periodicities at the beginning of the final cooling phase of MIS 11. Our
findings are robust with respect to sensitivity tests on the somewhat
uncertain MIS 11 duration. |
