| Zusammenfassung |
| Since the paper by Hays et al. (1976), spectral analyses of climate proxy
records provide substantial evidence that a fraction of the climatic
variance is driven by insolation changes in the frequency ranges of
obliquity and precession variations. However, it is the variance components
centered near 100 kyr which dominate most Upper Pleistocene climatic
records, although the amount of insolation perturbation at the eccentricity
driven periods close to 100-kyr (mainly the 95 kyr- and 123 kyr-periods)
is much too small to cause directly a climate change of ice-age amplitude.
Many attempts to find an explanation to this 100-kyr
cycle in climatic records have been made over the last decades. Here we show
that the double maximum which characterizes the daily irradiation received
in tropical latitudes over the course of the year is at the origin in
equatorial insolation of not only strong 95 kyr and 123 kyr periods
related to eccentricity, but also of a 11-kyr and a
5.5-kyr periods related to precession. |
