SUMMARY:Abrupt climate changes and sea level rise during the last deglacia
 tion (21\,000 to 7\,000 years ago) - Dr Lauren Gregoire\, The University o

DESCRIPTION:The last deglaciation (21-7 ka) was punctuated by several abru
 pt climatic and sea level changes in which ice sheets are thought to have 
 played an important role. This talk presents recently published and new un
 published results that elucidate the mechanisms of ice sheet melt and thei
 r climate impact in two major events: (i) the MWP-1a\, a ~ 14-18 m global 
 sea level rise in less than 350 years which coincided with the rapid N. He
 misphere Bolling warming \; (ii) the ‘8.2 kyr event’\, a century long 
 cooling event attributed to the sudden release of N. American glacial lake
