The simulation of climate on Pleistocene time scales requires coupling subsystems with response time scales which vary over several orders of magnitude. Most models of the coupled atmosphere-ocean-cryosphere (AOC) system have treated the global ocean as a single isothermal reservoir, resulting in a relatively slow surface temperature response time scale. We use a series of 1-D box ocean models and a box-advection diffusion ocean model to demonstrate that the ocean temperature does not respond with a single time scale.-from Authors
