Record #90723:

Opening the Drake Passage and Antarctic glaciation: some GCM results / R.J. Oglesby.

Title: Opening the Drake Passage and Antarctic glaciation: some GCM results / R.J. Oglesby.
Author(s): Oglesby, R. J.
Date: 1988.
In: Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (1988.), Vol. 69(16) (1988)
Abstract: Abstract from paper presented at 1987 Fall Meeting of AGU, held 7-11 December 1987 in San Francisco, CA, USA. Opening of Drake Passage 30 to 16 Ma BP is often cited as major factor initiating or enhancing Antarctic glaciation as it caused meridional heat transport, thus isolating Antarctic thermally. Presents results of general circulation model which examines effect of closed Drake Passage, removing all sea ice from Southern Ocean and raising sea-surface temperature.
Notes:

Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. Vol. 69(16) :382 (1988).

Keywords: 551.338 -- Ice ages, theories of causation.
E7 -- Glaciology: glacial geology and ice ages.
(*7) -- Antarctic regions.
