The sudden release of a large amount of stored fresh water qualifies as a freak event, because its occurrence depends on the detailed geometry of the retreating ice front.
16 de jul. de 2021 · Catastrophic meltwater drainage from glacial Lake Agassiz has been hypothesized as a trigger for large-scale ocean circulation change initiating the Younger Dryas cold reversal. Here we quantify the flood discharge that formed the northwestern outlet of Lake Agassiz using a one-dimensional step-backwater model and a zero-dimension gradual ...
