The "8.2 ka cooling event" is the largest climatic excursion of the Holocene from the perspective of Greenland temperature change. Greenland temperature dropped by 3 ºC, and methane declined by 80 ppbv, which suggest an important change in the hydrologic cycle.
During ca. 8220 to 7600 cal yr BP also called the "8.2 ka cooling event" Greenland temperature dropped by 3 ºC, and methane declined by 80 ppbv due to glacial outburst flood of freshwater from Lake Agassiz thorough the Hudson Bay into the ...
