Figure 30.— Changes in sea-surface temperature compared to isotopic curves in high-latitude cores from the 

 Northern and Southern Hemisphere. Isotopic curves largely reflect global ice volume. Warmest 

 Antarctic sea-surface temperatures led, and warmest North Atlantic temperatures lagged the ice- 

 volume minimum of the last interglacial. Ts is surface temperature. 5e is an isotope stage associ - 

 ated with the last interglacial.
