    Its astonishing how stable the southern hemisphere temperate and subtropical latitudes were - I guess that antarctic circumpolar current keeps Antarctica nicely quarantined! Its something I've been aware of for awhile (I'm quite interested in relict plant species and the remarkable climatic stability of Zealandia over not just the Pleistocene glaciations but even throughout the entire Cenozoic has lead to an abundance of very old plant groups) but seeing it on the map and compared to the almost unthinkable changes going on in Canada is just wild. Also Alaska was _warmer_ during glacial periods? Wtf?

      @@sandrinojohnsun9949 Yes, plus the Antarctic circumpolar current keeps much of the southern hemisphere oceans very moderate even at temperate latitudes, that is until you cross beyond it and then things are quite remarkably cold for their latitude compared to the modern northern hemisphere. Its kind of crazy how effective it is, even today the Kerguelen islands have a polar climate and a tidewater glacier, less than 20 degrees of latitude away from the tropical/subtropical Lord Howe Island; this is mostly due to the Antarctic circumpolar. I'm more inclined to call the oceans and currents the answer rather than glacial periods being a high latitude phenomenon. New Zealand and Australia both reach to relatively temperate latitudes, equally high latitudes of some of the southernmost northern hemisphere ice sheets during peak glaciation, with little effect on temperatures. The temperature anomaly map shows Antarctica getting very cold but the anomaly mostly stays contained to the Southern Ocean. Meanwhile in the north the Gulf Stream has a tendency to shut down, freezing Quebec and much of Europe.
      Interestingly enough though, Chile had the Patagonian ice sheet at relatively low latitudes and with relatively minor temperature changes, and even New Zealand had significant glaciations on the South Island. My guess with those is that southern Chile is already quite cold due to cold ocean currents and both southwest NZ and Chile have very high rainfall which means small decreases in temp can trigger some intense ice formation.

      there isn't a specific temperature, it happened gradually, and continues to happen in reverse (accelerated by man-made climate change.) for example, if the temperature today decreased by say, 0.1°C, the sea levels would drop by, for example, 10 cm. it just adds on.

      Did you even watch the video? During the previous interglacial, the Earth’s mean temperature stayed almost exclusively below 14 Celsius. At the end of the video, it rises from 14.3 Celsius to 14.7 Celsius in only 100 years. And that was only up the 1950s. If you look on Google for “hottest summer since Eemian interglacial” the very first few results from scientific research articles will show you that during July of 2023, the overall temperature of Earth reached close to 17 Celsius, which is ridiculous for the current geological epoch (the Holocene).

    I keep hearing that those variations do not occur naturally in hundreds of years, but this video disproves it, so is anthropogenic warming the only possible explanation for the current warming considering the fact that we are in an interglacial period?

    • @Kaldisti
      @Kaldisti  8 месяцев назад +2

      These rapid variations occurred because of the expansion of giant ice-sheets in mid-latitude landmasses. It means these ice-sheets were exposed to a summer sun with the same intensity we experience today in Canada or Sweden. This was a very particular situation we don't have today. It's specific to glacial periods
      The actual warming has been triggered first by an increasing of solar activity, but it decreased since 1950 while temperatures still rise, in parallel with greenhouse gas concentration.

    There are some confusing things that come to mind when watching this.
    For example.
    If this map is accurate it would mean that Alaska and the north Pacific rim, including Beringia, were warmer than today.
    Does this mean that during the LGM Beringia's biome wouldn't be mammoth Steppe but an even lusher Forrest than most of Alaska has today?
    Is there an explanation for such a overly pronounced difference between western and Eastern North America ? (I assume that Montreal's extreme temperatures are caused by it being covered by ice sheets)
    How come East Asia isn't as heavily glaciated as Eastern North America?

    • @Kaldisti

      1) it's possible indeed, but I don't have yet rainfall data so I can't say if Alaska was humid enough to let forest to expand
      2) the eastern part was (and still is) more continental than western America, that's why temperatures were much colder in this area
      3) in northern Eurasia, dominant winds come from west (westerlies), as well as moisture. on its road, the air becomes more and more dry, so there is no longer water enough to from ice.
      North America is not as wide as Eurasia is
