Abstract in brief

The Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11c interglacial period experienced a surprisingly strong climate response despite weak insolation forcing, with interglacial conditions starting in subtropical regions around 423,113 thousand years ago and reaching a global peak about 1.5 million years later, when sea levels were significantly higher than today.
The study suggests that this intense climate change was driven by a prolonged (about 1.5 kyr) episode of strong poleward heat flux transport before the peak of the interglacial, which contributed to the rapid warming in northern latitudes and the overall climate intensity.
Researchers used speleothem proxy data from northern Italy and North Atlantic paleoclimate records to analyze this period, highlighting the complexity of insolation and climate interactions during MIS 11c, and indicating that internal climate dynamics played a crucial role in shaping this anomalously strong interglacial episode.
