Abstract
- Discusses efforts to simulate the conditions which caused the last ice age, 115,000 years before the present. Failure of efforts to simulate this glaciation using global atmospheric models, when forced by insolation changes only; The importance of feedback effects, such as changes in ocean circulation, in creating perennial snow cover.
