This first shows the linkage between temperatures and greenhouse gases (note that the X-axis measures time before the present, moving right takes you further into the past):

[font size=3 face=Times,Times New Roman,Serif]A record of greenhouse gases [carbon dioxide, methane] for the past 400,000 years as preserved in the Vostok Ice Core from Antarctica. The record shows ice ages when average temperatures were 6 - 8°C cooler than now. Such periods were punctuated by warm phases such as Stage 5e (red arrow) when temperatures were around 2°C warmer than today’s average. ANZICE will focus on those warm phases as case studies for what to expect in the future.[/font]




This next shows the linkage between glaciation and Milankovitch cycles (note that the X-axis measures time before the present, moving right takes you further into the past):

The natural pattern appears to be relatively rapid warming (c. 10,000 years) initiated by Milankovitch cycles, and amplified by feedbacks (e.g. GHG’s, albedo) followed by much slower cooling (c. 100,000 years) note, moving right takes you forward in time:

Don't forget the ice volume plot from the PIOMAS site. Systematic Chaos Jan 2012 #7
Like this one? XemaSab Jan 2012 #8
The subject line needs work. Kolesar Jan 2012 #10
You have a better subject line? XemaSab Jan 2012 #11
You conferred with the originator. You know better than me what the threads about Kolesar Jan 2012 #12
I don't have a problem with the thread title XemaSab Jan 2012 #17
I'm open to suggestions... Dead_Parrot Jan 2012 #13

Sorry if I'm being dense but does the NOAA CO2 graph show us at 393 ppm? truebrit71 Jan 2012 #46
Why, yes it does... Dead_Parrot Jan 2012 #47
Right, although 350 ppm has been suggested as an initial target OKIsItJustMe Jan 2012 #48
