| Abstract | In the next century, changes to precipitation will be among the most significant impacts of anthropogenic climate change. An important tool for predicting future climate change is understanding how climate has changed in the past. About 12,000 years ago, a significant volume of cold, fresh water was added to the North Atlantic. This fresh water is believed to have slowed the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, an ocean current that is important to the stability of the planet’s climate. |
