Abstract During the last deglaciation, a major global warming trend was punctuated by abrupt climate changes, likely related to Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). One problem is that an abrupt increase in the AMOC during the Bølling‐Allerød (BA) transition occurred when the melting of Northern Hemisphere ice sheets was significant, which tended to weaken the AMOC. Here, from transient simulations of the last deglaciation using an atmosphere‐ocean general circulation model, we sh

There were significant differences between the last two deglaciations, particularly in Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and Antarctic warming in the deglaciations and the following interglacials. Here, we present transient simulations of deglaciation using a coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model for the last two deglaciations focusing on the impact of ice sheet discharge on climate changes associated with the AMOC in the first part, and the sensitivity studies usin

Abstract Basal melting of the Antarctic ice shelves is an important factor in determining the stability of the Antarctic ice sheet. This study used the climatic outputs of an atmosphere–ocean general circulation model to force a circumpolar ocean model that resolves ice shelf cavity circulation to investigate the response of Antarctic ice shelf melting to different climatic conditions (i.e., to a doubling of CO2 and to the Last Glacial Maximum conditions). Sensitivity experiments were also condu

Abstract. Stable water isotopes in polar ice cores are widely used to reconstruct past temperature variations over several orbital climatic cycles. One way to calibrate the isotope–temperature relationship is to apply the present-day spatial relationship as a surrogate for the temporal one. However, this method leads to large uncertainties because several factors like the sea surface conditions or the origin and transport of water vapor influence the isotope–temperature temporal slope. In this s

Abstract. In the past, Earth experienced snowball events, where its surface became completely covered with ice. Previous studies used general circulation models to investigate the onset and climate of such snowball events. Using the MIROC4m coupled atmosphere-ocean climate model, this study examined the changes in the oceanic circulation during the onset of a modern snowball Earth and elucidated their evolution to steady states under the snowball climate. Abruptly changing the solar constant to

We present our development of the Ice sheet model for Integrated Earth-system Studies (IcIES2) for the Antarctic ice sheet configuration as a model development for CMIP7-ISMIP7. The flow of the ice is calculated with the shallow ice approximation (SIA) and shallow shelf approximation (SSA). To represent the migration of grounding lines, we use the grounding line flux boundary condition of Schoof (2007), following previous implementations (Pollard and DeConto 2012; 2020). The ice velocity fields

<strong class="journal-contentHeaderColor">Abstract.</strong> We conducted a transient numerical experiment on the ocean carbon cycle during the last deglaciation. We used a three-dimensional ocean field from a transient climate model MIROC4m simulation of the last deglaciation as input to an ocean biogeochemical model, which allowed us to evaluate the effects of the gradual warming and the abrupt climate changes associated with the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation during the last deg
