The importance of the diurnal and annual cycle of air traffic for contrail radiative forcing
Article Abstract:
The most important factors for condensation trails or contrails climate forcing use of a radioactive transfer model for a site in southeast England located in the entrance to the North Atlantic flight corridor are determined. It is found that night-time flights during winter are responsible for most of the contrail radiative forcing.

Increased seasonality in Middle East temperatures during the last interglacial period
Article Abstract:
Seasonally resolved proxy records using corals from the northernmost Red Sea, which recorded climate during the last interglacial period, the late Holocene epoch and the present are reported. An increased seasonality was found in the temperature recorded in the last interglacial coral.

Southern Ocean origin for the resumption of Antlantic thermohaline circulation deglaciation
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on effect of the Southern Ocean warming and sea-ice retreat on the Atlantic thermohaline circulation. Results demonstrate that the Southern Ocean triggeres the transition into a interglacial mode of circulation.
