The Younger Dryas (YD) was a period in Earth's geologic history that occurred circa 12,900 to 11,700 years Before Present (BP).
18 de may. de 2024 · Younger Dryas, cool period between roughly 12,900 and 11,600 years ago that disrupted the prevailing warming trend occurring in the Northern Hemisphere at the end of the Pleistocene Epoch (which lasted from 2.6 million to 11,700 years ago).
15 de mar. de 2024 · The Younger Dryas Period exemplifies the dynamic and unpredictable nature of Earth’s climate system. From its complex origins to its far-reaching impacts, this dramatic period offers profound insights into the complexities shaping our planet’s past, present, and future.
26 de jun. de 2018 · Geologists call this blip of frigid conditions the Younger Dryas, and its cause is a mystery. Most researchers suspect that a large pulse of freshwater from a melting ice sheet and glacial lakes...
This near-glacial period is called the Younger Dryas, named after a flower (Dryas octopetala) that grows in cold conditions and that became common in Europe during this time. The end of the Younger Dryas, about 11,500 years ago, was par-ticularly abrupt.
7 de feb. de 2024 · The Younger Dryas (YD; \ (\sim\) 12.9 to 11.7 kya) 1 was a rapid return to cold glacial conditions that occurred during the most recent deglaciation of the late Quaternary and marks the...
This time in Earth history is called the Younger Dryas. It was named after the vast quantities of pollen from tundra flower species, Dryas octopetala, found in sediment deposited at the time. It’s also called the Big Freeze for obvious reasons.
2 de sept. de 2015 · The Younger Dryas (YD) was an abrupt climate change event that affected climate across much of the Earth approximately 12.5 kyr ago (before 1950 CE, hereafter 1 ). An abrupt climate event is...
Younger Dryas – prime example of abrupt climate change. The Younger Dryas (YD) is known as the best example of an abrupt climatic event recorded on land, in the oceans, and in ice cores (Alley et al., 2002, 2003 ).
12 de oct. de 2015 · We find that the Younger Dryas climate signal as registered in proxy evidence is best simulated using a combination of processes: a weakened Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation,...
