[edit] GA Review

This article is about a very interesting subject, but needs to be a bit kinder to the layman. At the moment, it more-or-less presumes the reader is an engineer, and that's not a safe assumption, particularly given the climatology aspect of this. This does have the basis of a good article, but needs a lot more introductory material. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 22:43, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion

The article could be expanded to include details of:

  1. the effects of D-O cycles - see Denton 2000
  2. The 100 year cycle in Antartica - see Hulbe et al 2007
  3. The binge-purge cycles and Heinrich events - see Maslin 2001
