Title: Ancient tropical climates warm San Francisco gathering

Journal Article · · Science (Washington, D.C.); (United States)

Climate records preserved in the Greenland ice sheet got a lot of the attention at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in San Francisco last month, but ancient tropical records were a rival attraction. In talks scattered in unrelated sessions, researchers reported a possible role for the tropics in driving the last ice age, a link between high latitudes and the tropics that may have redirected human evolution, and a tropical climate periodicity that may fill a gap in the understanding of climate variability.
