Short summary
Climate cycles with millennial periodicities are enigmatic because no Earth external climate forcing exists that operates on millennial timescales. Using a statistical analysis of a famous Greenlandic air temperature record, we show that two disparate energy sources (one astronomical and one centennial) fuel millennial climate variability. We speculate that two distinct Earth internal cryospheric/climatic/oceanic processes are responsible for the transfer of energy to millennial climate cycles.
