Dynamic Greenland ice sheet driven by pCO2 variations across the Pliocene Pleistocene transition
Previous work has argued for a CO2 control on the development of the Plio-Pleistocene Transition (PPT, 3.0–2.5 Ma) Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). Here based on transient ice sheet experiments, the authors demonstrate the pivotal role of modern-like CO2 on the onset and dynamism of the PPT GrIS.
