A comparison of pollen zones and oxygen isotope stages shows that during the transition period from the penultimate glaciation to the last interglacial period, the change in climate from cold to warm began earlier in low latitude areas than in high latitude areas.completedQuaternary geologyCenozoicclimate changeglacial environmentglacial geologyglaciationhigh-resolution methodsice sheetsinterglacial environmentlast glacial maximumLeg 184microfossilsmiosporesNorth PacificNorthwest PacificOcean Drilling ProgramODP Site 1144Pacific OceanpaleoclimatologypaleoecologypalynomorphspollenQuaternarySouth China Seaupper QuaternaryvegetationWest Pacificurn:org.iodp:exp:184urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:184:site:1144urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:184urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignChinesegeoscientificInformation117.2508117.250820.031120.0311
