The Earth is currently in another interglacial period called Holocene.
2
Most European geologists count four distinct extensions of the ice-sheet, with three interglacial periods.
3
The German and many English and French geologists distinguish four sheets and three interglacial epochs.
4
During every previous similar interglacial period, of which there are at least seven, greenhouse-gas levels fell.
5
The interglacial worlds are just FULL of animals.
6
We are now living in an interglacial period which began 10,000 years ago.
7
This was an interglacial period in which Arctic regions of North America were covered in forests and wetlands.
8
During the present interglacial period, polar life in the Southern Ocean is sustained mainly by large-scale primary production.
9
We also found evidence of genetic bottlenecks during the glacial periods and gene flow during the interglacial expansions.
10
Further diversification occurred only in the Southern Hemisphere and seems to have been linked to glacial-interglacial climate dynamics.
11
Here we present neodymium isotope measurements from cores throughout the Atlantic that reveal glacial-interglacial changes in water mass distributions.
12
And when the ice band had passed and they were sailing over interglacial worlds, mostly he saw tree tops.
13
Kopp's team reconstructed the sea levels in the last interglacial period, around 125,000 years ago.
14
Many of the valleys of our present rivers are but patchworks of preglacial, interglacial, and postglacial courses (Fig.
15
In both cases it is extremely difficult, or quite impossible, to assign the remains to definite glacial or interglacial times.
16
This information is useful for unraveling the processes associated with past climate changes such as those from glacial and interglacial periods.
