Abstract

The July and January climates of 9000 yr ago are simulated with a high resolution general circulation model. The incoming solar radiation is specified from the orbital parameters for 9000 yr ago, and the effect of the remnant North American ice sheet is taken into account (sea-surface temperatures are not changed from modern values). The change in radiation causes temperatures to be higher in July and lower in January over large areas of the continents. -from Authors
