Now how could there be a 15 degree Celsius rise in temperatures without all the evil people driving SUV’s and the like. It must have been woolly Mammoth farts. Yet another nail in the AGW coffin.

How does this Bolling period compare to the Noah’s ark period, where a theory is that a glacier or some other barrier broke and the Black Sea flooded?

"It is vital that we look into Earth’s geological past to understand rare but high impact events, such as the collapse of giant ice sheets that occurred 14,600 years ago," said Dr Alex Thomas of Oxford University’s Department of Earth Sciences, an author of the paper. "Our work gives a window onto an extreme event in which deglaciation coincided with a dramatic and rapid rise in global sea levels – an ancient ‘mega flood’. Sea level rose more than ten times more quickly than it is rising now! This is an excellent test bed for climate models: if they can reproduce this extraordinary event, it will improve confidence that they can also predict future change accurately."

The real reason for this 'research'? To get you to believe in a computer-model that 'predicts' global-warming. Obviates the need to support their contentions with real evidence. Computer-models are the old physics 'thought experiements' applied to new 'scientific' imaginations. GIGO

Yeah, but I’m sure it was really only a “local” “mega-flood”, and not a global one. /[bible can’t be true because science says so]

Wait a minute!

Noah’s GPS said he was somewhere around the Med around 6000 years ago.

This infidel information cannot stand! Off with someone’s head

when all the methane hydrates ignite as the seas warm,, it won’t matter much how the coral holds out.. and they say watch out for warming of the permafrost .. ;-] interesting post! Thanks!

During the Bølling warming high latitudes of the Northern hemisphere warmed as much as 15 degrees Celsius in a few tens of decades.

Why do they use tortured terms such as " a few tens of decades"? Wouldn't "a few hundred years" suffice?

not to worry! The One has promised to stop the seas from rising. But maybe he won’t do it if he doesn’t get re-elected.
