Magnitude of the 8.2 ka event freshwater forcing based on stable isotope modelling and comparison to future Greenland melting
Abstract The northern hemisphere experienced an abrupt cold event ~ 8200 years ago (the 8.2 ka event) that was triggered by the release of meltwater into the Labrador Sea, and resulting in a weakening of the poleward oceanic heat transport. Although this event has been considered a possible analogue...
