Interglacial Hydroclimate in the Tropical West Pacific
Through the Late Pleistocene.
Science, Vol. 336, no. 6086, pp. 1301-1304, 8 June 2012.
Published Online May 3 2012.

Records of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration (PCO2)
and Antarctic temperature have revealed an intriguing change
in the magnitude of interglacial warmth and PCO2 at around
430,000 years ago (430 ka), but the global climate repercussions
of this change remain elusive. Here, we present a stalagmite-based
reconstruction of tropical West Pacific hydroclimate from 570
to 210 ka. The results suggest similar regional precipitation
amounts across the four interglacials contained in the record,
implying that tropical hydroclimate was insensitive to interglacial
differences in PCO2 and high-latitude temperature. In contrast,
during glacial terminations, drying in the tropical West Pacific
accompanied cooling events in northern high latitudes. Therefore,
the tropical convective heat engine can either stabilize or amplify
global climate change, depending on the nature of the climate forcing.
STUDY NOTES: Oxygen and carbon stable isotope records (d18O and d13C) from
three stalagmites collected in three different caves in Gunung Mulu
and Gunung Buda National Parks, Northern Borneo, Malaysia.
Chronologies were established by 238U-234U-230Th dating.
Stalagmite GC08 was taken from Green Cathedral Cave in Gunung Buda,
WR5 from Whiterock Cave in Gunung Mulu, and Squeeze1 was obtained
from the connection between Clearwater and Wind Caves, in Gunung Mulu.
Green Cathedral Cave GC08: 4°14'N, 114°55'30"E
Whiterock Cave WR5: 4°09'N, 114°52'E
Clearwater/Wind Caves Squeeze1: 4°06'N, 114°50'E
