Résumé
In an age of ever increasing model complexity and computational power, many new advanced methods that were inaccessible to paleo models are now becoming commonplace. Nonetheless, these approaches require significant resources and manpower for operation and development, and often are applicable to highly specific scientific questions. At the same time, simpler approaches can serve as test beds, and provide significant value facilitating the quantification of hypothesis, ensemble simulations and statistical analyses that can illuminate the bigger picture. In this talk, I will highlight different complexity approaches to shed light into the climate-ice sheet evolution of the Quaternary. I will also present recent examples of work performed in our group from glacial-interglacial ice-sheet dynamics to abrupt millennial-scale climate changes.
