Tracking postglacial palaeoceanographic change of the Baltic Sea Basin using Osmium isotopes
The Baltic Sea has experienced marked changes in salinity over the Holocene due to a rising global sea level and the isostatic rebound of the area. Here we investigate the temporal transition of the Littorina Sea Transgression (~8000 cal BP) between the freshwater Ancylus Lake stage and the marine/brackish Littorina Sea stage using Osmium isotopes (i.e. 187 Os/ 188 Os values), supplemented by BIT index, TOC content and sedimentology. The 187 Os/ …
The East Gotland Basin (Baltic Sea) as a candidate Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point for the Anthropocene series
The short sediment core EMB201/7-4 retrieved from the East Gotland Basin, central Baltic Sea, is explored here as a candidate to host the stratigraphical basis for the Anthropocene series and its equivalent Anthropocene epoch, still to be formalized in the Geological Time Scale. The core has been accurately dated back to 1840 CE using a well-established event stratigraphy approach. A pronounced and significant change occurs at 26.5 cm (dated 1956…
The signal of climate changes over the last two millennia in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, eastern Canada
Climate changes over the past two millennia in the central part of the Gulf of St. Lawrence are documented in this paper with the aim of determining and understanding the natural climate variability and the impact of anthropogenic forcing at a regional scale. The palynological content (dinocysts, pollen, and spores) of the composite marine sediment core MSM46-03 collected in the Laurentian Channel was used to reconstruct oceanographic and climati…
Landscape Response to Dynamic Human Pressure in the Paliouras Lagoon, Halkidiki Peninsula, Macedonia, Greece
High-resolution pollen analysis of a sediment core recovered from Paliouras lagoon (Greece) allowed us to reconstruct the environmental dynamics of the Halkidiki peninsula during the last 4000 years. Palynological results have been interpreted and compared with detailed historical data, showing distinct phases of human-landscape interactions from the Bronze Age until recent times. Pollen spectra revealed an environment characterized by Mediterran…
Hydrographic shifts south of Australia over the last deglaciation and possible interhemispheric linkages
Northern and southern hemispheric influences—particularly changes in Southern Hemisphere westerly winds (SSW) and Southern Ocean ventilation—triggered the stepwise atmospheric CO 2 increase that accompanied the last deglaciation. One approach for gaining potential insights into past changes in SWW/CO 2 upwelling is to reconstruct the positions of the northern oceanic fronts associated with the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. Using two deep-sea cor…
Is ‘deep-water formation’ in the Baltic Sea a key to understanding seabed dynamics and ventilation changes over the past 7,000 years
Environmental evolution of western Baltic Sea in the Holocene in the light of multidisciplinary investigations of sediments cores from Arkona Basin
Regional climate change and the onset of farming in northern Germany and southern Scandinavia
In Europe, the transition from hunter–gatherer–fisher-based communities into societies mainly relying on farming was spread from the southeast towards the north and west during the Holocene. In central Germany, farming was adopted at ~7500 cal. yr BP, whereas the shift is evident at ~6000–5500 cal. yr BP in northern Germany and southern Scandinavia. Consequently, farming techniques were available for more than a millennium. Some studies argue tha…
Holocene Mg/Ca, alkenones, and light stable isotope measurements on the outer North Iceland shelf (MD99-2269)
To evaluate whether proxies that record surface, near-surface, and bottom water conditions from the North Iceland shelf have similar trends and periodicities, we examine Holocene century-scale paleoceanographic records from core MD99-2269. This core site lies close to the boundary between Atlantic and Arctic/Polar waters, and in an area frequently influenced by drift ice. The proxies are stable δ 13 C and δ 18 O values on planktonic and benthic f…
The evolution of the Mecklenburg Bay environment in the Holocene in the light of multidisciplinary investigations of the sediment cores
Paleoceanographic changes in the Disko Bugt area, West Greenland, during the Holocene
Micropaleontological analyses of a sediment core raised in Disko Bugt (West of Greenland) were undertaken in order to document paleoceanographical changes in the eastern Baffin Bay during the Holocene. The modern analogue technique (MAT) applied to dinocyst assemblages provided information on paleo-sea-surface conditions, whereas isotopic analyses of benthic foraminifers aimed at documenting the ‘deep’ water mass occupying the site. During the ea…
Echoes from the Past
Integrated sediment multiproxy studies and modeling were used to reconstruct past changes in the Baltic Sea ecosystem. Results of natural changes over the past 6000 years in the Baltic Sea ecosystem suggest that forecasted climate warming might enhance environmental problems of the Baltic Sea. Integrated modeling and sediment proxy studies reveal increased sea surface temperatures and expanded seafloor anoxia (in deep basins) during earlier natur…
Reconstruction of the late-Holocene changes in the Sub-Arctic Front position at the Reykjanes Ridge, north Atlantic
Changes in the dynamics of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre are involved in the modulation of the northward salinity and heat transport in the northern North Atlantic via the North Atlantic Current (NAC). Variations in the strength of the East Greenland Current (EGC) can influence the gyre dynamics by impacting deep convection in the Labrador Sea. Oxygen isotope data of three planktonic foraminiferal species (surface water Neogloboquadrina pachyd…
Holocene palaeoceanographic evolution off West Greenland
Benthic foraminiferal assemblages from a core southwest of Disko Bugt provide a Holocene perspective (last ~7 ka BP) on ice-sheet/ocean interactions between the West Greenland Current (WGC) and the West Greenland ice sheet. Changes in the fauna reveal significant variations in the water mass properties (temperature and salinity) of the WGC through time. From 7.3 to 6.2 ka BP, a relatively warm/strong WGC influences ice-sheet melt in Disko Bugt an…
Climate and oceanographic variability in the SW Barents Sea during the Holocene
The Holocene section of the marine sediment core PSh-5159N, located in the SW Barents Sea, has been studied at high resolution with a multiproxy approach. A well-stratified water column occurred at the site 11—9.8 ka BP. The stratification was probably a result of a winter sea ice cover and/or fresh, warm surface waters during summer. Stratification and resultant reduction in air—sea interaction allowed for warmer bottom water temperatures. The g…
Late-Holocene diatom-inferred reconstruction of temperature variations of the West Greenland Current from Disko Bugt, central West Greenland
The diatom flora from a high-resolution core collected from Disko Bugt, central West Greenland, records variations in surface water temperature for the late Holocene (1600—300 cal. BP). Our data support the existence of a previously identified anti-phase relationship between the surface water temperature from West Greenland and climate events recorded in the NE Atlantic and between surface and subsurface waters (identified from benthic foraminife…
A robust, multisite Holocene history of drift ice off northern Iceland
An important indicator of Holocene climate change is provided by evidence for variations in the extent of drift ice. A proxy for drift ice in Iceland waters is provided by the presence of quartz. Quantitative x-ray diffraction analysis of the < 2 mm sediment fraction was undertaken on 16 cores from around Iceland. The quartz weight (wt.)% estimates from each core were integrated into 250-yr intervals between −0.05 and 11.7 cal. ka BP. Median quar…
Foraminiferal reconstruction of mid- to late-Holocene ocean circulation and climate variability in Disko Bugt, West Greenland
Benthic foraminifera from two cores collected from Disko Bugt, a large marine embayment in West Greenland, are used to investigate hydrographic changes during the mid to late Holocene. The records document fluctuations in the West Greenland Current (WGC) linked to large-scale changes in North Atlantic circulation and, for one core, impacts of local climate changes. In particular, changes in the cold East Greenland Current (EGC) and the warm, more…
Mid-to late-Holocene hydrological and climatic variability in Disko Bugt, central West Greenland
Diatom and lithological analyses were carried out on two sediment cores from Disko Bugt and the adjacent Kangersuneq Fjord, West Greenland, in order to investigate mid-to late-Holocene (6.9-0.7 kyr BP) hydrographic and climatic variability. While the Disko Bugt record is found to reflect mainly West Greenland Current (WGC) fluctuations that can be linked to North Atlantic circulation variability, the fjord record appears to be more representative…
