Scientific paper

A detailed stable-isotope record is presented for the full length of the Greenland Ice-core Project Summit ice core covering the last 250,000 years according to a graduated timescale. It appears that the climatic stability of the Holocene is the exception rather than the rule; the last interglacial is also noted to have lasted longer than is implied by the deep-sea SPECMAP record. This discrepancy may be accounted for if the climate instability at the outset of the last interglacial delayed the melting of the Saalean ice sheets in America and Eurasia.
