Figure 6. Correlation of Dansgaard/Oeschger cycles between Hole 1017E and Greenland ice core (GRIP) for the interval between 60 and 27 ka. Age assignment of the D/O cycles in Hole 1017E has been adjusted from that of Figure 5 by applying tie points (dotted lines) to the GRIP record at the initiation of interstadials (IS) 14, 12, and 8. Datums at ~28.5 and 59 ka are as in Figure 5. Note strong similarities in the climate patterns between the two records once these correlations are made.
