Missing ice and the LGM

Scientists involved with PAGES' PALSEA working group may have discovered the cause of "missing ice" during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM).

In the recent Nature Communications paper "A new global ice sheet reconstruction for the past 80 000 years", authors, led by Evan Gowan, present a global ice-sheet reconstruction, called PaleoMIST 1.0, created independently of far-field sea-level and δ18O proxy records.
