SEA LEVELS, SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND EL NINO VARIABILITY DURING WARM INTERGLACIATIONS

暖间冰期的海平面、海面温度和厄尔尼诺变率。海平面、海面温度和厄尔尼诺的变化将在之前温暖的间冰期确定，使用保存在隆起的珊瑚礁中的年代确定、地层控制的珊瑚化石。过去海平面变化与海洋温度升高之间的关系将为海平面对全球变暖的反应提供见解。了解以前间冰期温暖期发生的厄尔尼诺事件的频率和幅度，将有助于更好地了解控制气候系统中极端事件的过程。

SEA LEVELS, SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND EL NINO VARIABILITY DURING WARM INTERGLACIATIONS. Sea levels, sea surface temperatures and the variability of El Niño will be determined for previous warm interglacial periods using well dated, stratigraphically controlled fossil corals preserved in uplifted reefs. Relationships between past changes in sea level and warmer ocean temperatures will provide insights into the response of sea level to global warming. Knowledge of the frequency and amplitude of El Nino events that occurred during previous interglacial warm periods will provide a better understanding of processes controlling extreme events in the climate system.
