Converse of object

• follow: The evidence suggests that the period involved was the OIS 13 interglacial followed by the OIS 12 glacial.

Adjective modifier

• warm: Despite much research, the mechanism by which carbon dioxide levels were reduced during cold glacial periods relative to warm interglacials eludes us.

• present: We have been in the present interglacial for about 10,000 years.

• last: The last interglacial, from about 70,000 to 130,000 yr BP, was typical in this respect.

• ipswichian: However, during the Ipswichian interglacial a rising sea filled The Wash, the large embayment bordering northwest Norfolk.

• Pleistocene: These approximately date to the penultimate and ultimate full Pleistocene interglacials.

• early: This may have been true in Britain during earlier interglacials, when the great beasts of the Paleolithic era required large areas of grassland.

Modifies a noun

• period: This could only have been deposited in the last interglacial period.

• deposit: The relative paucity of interglacial deposits means that they should receive a high priority.

• cycle: The aim of this project is to provide quantitative reconstructions of climate through the last glacial / interglacial cycle using pollen data.

• stage: MSA concentrations in glacial ice remain similar to the ones observed during interglacial stages.

• condition: There have been various attempts to estimate carbon storage changes between glacial and interglacial conditions.

• phase: These lakes filled with sediments during the subsequent warm interglacial phase ( 400,000 years ago ) known as the Hoxnian.
