Nonglacial Rapid Climate Events: Past and Future

 Overpeck, J.T. and R. Webb

2000 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 97: 1335-1338



ABSTRACT

The paleoclimate record makes it clear that rapid climate shifts of the 20th century are only a subset of possible climate system behavior that might occur in the absence of glacial conditions, and that climatic surprises could be a challenge for society even in the absence of significant greenhouse warming.
