Astronomical and glacial forcing of East Asian summer monsoon variability (2015, neutral): “…differentiating the relative in ﬂ uence of insolation and the coupled ice-sheet and CO 2 changes on the summer monsoon intensity remains challenging, due to the nonlinear relationship between astronomical forcing and glacial response (Hays et al., 1976; Shackleton, 2000; Yin and Berger, 2012).”
Atmospheric bridge, oceanic tunnel, and global climatic teleconnections (2007, background): “Nevertheless, there is some evidence that the equatorial Pacific may be affected by the ventilation from the subtropical South Pacific [Wang and Liu, 2000; Luo and Yamagata, 2001], consistent with the equatorial asymmetry of the Pacific tropical-extratropical exchange (see section 3.2).”
On the mid-Pleistocene transition to 100-kyr glacial cycles and the asymmetry between glaciation and deglaciation times (2003, background): “It is possible that some of this difference is due to the fact that d(18)O incorporates additional effects beyond the land-ice volume such as the temperature and salinity of the ocean [Shackleton, 2000].”
Links between eccentricity forcing and the 100,000-year glacial cycle (2010, background): “Furthermore, (6) too few 100-kyr glacial cycles occur in the late Pleistocene to distinguish between many possible causal mechanism”
Mid-Pleistocene revolution and the ‘eccentricity myth’ (2005, background): “…al. 1993) which provides melting forcing on the Northern Hemisphere ice sheets and tendency to retreat, and 2) the rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide and methane which promotes warming globally and encourages the melting of the large continental ice sheets (Shackleton 2000; Ruddiman & Raymo 2003).”
Glacial cycles: Toward a new paradigm (2001, background): “Atmospheric CO2 had no role whatsoever in the original, classical, astronomical theory, but it now appears as a central issue for the understanding of glacialinterglacial cycles [Shackleton, 2000].”
Midlatitude westerlies, atmospheric CO2, and climate change during the ice ages (2006, background): “This means that the effect of the orbital forcing on CO2 is not being mediated through the ice sheets and it implies that the orbital forcing is somehow operating more directly on the ocean’s biogeochemistry [ Shackleton, 2000 ].”
