THE ABRUPT CHANGES AND PERIODICITIES OF CLIMATE DURING HOLOCENE

More Information
  • Received Date: March 05, 2006
  • Revised Date: June 21, 2006
  • Paleoclimatic sequences from the ice core, marine sediments and terrestrial records indicate the serial abrupt climatic changes on centennial-millennial scales during the Holocene, which further confirms the instabilities of climatic system in the background of glacial-interglacial cycles. Holocene is a latest stage that is related to the human being, and great progress has been made in the researches of its climatic evolution history and climatic forcing mechanism. These researches can provide a historical analog for future climatic change and the climatic trend predictions. In this paper, the latest progress in abrupt changes and climatic periodicities during the Holocene are reviewed and some comments are given for the further work in the future.
