Reconciling Bolling warmth with peak deglacial meltwater discharge

Paleoclimatic data indicate warm conditions during the Bolling period, wher eas climate modeling studies predict significant cooling, triggered by the concomitant deglacial meltwater flux into the Atlantic Ocean. We suggest th at the lack of an adequate representation of deep water flow over the Green land-Scotland Ridge in ocean circulation models can account for this discre pancy.
