Quantifying the effect of vegetation dynamics on the climate of the Last Glacial Maximum

The importance of the biogeophysical atmosphere-vegetation feedback in comparison with the radiative effect of lower atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> concentrations and the presence of ice sheets at the last glacial maximum (LGM) is investigated with the climate system model CLIMBER-2. Equilib...
