The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation as productivity regulator of the North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre
Spatially extensive and intense phytoplankton blooms observed off Iberia, in satellite pictures, are driven by significant nutrient supply by upper-ocean vertical mesoscale activity rather than by horizontal advection by coastal upwelling. Productivity of oligotrophic regions is still poorly depicted by discrete instrumental and model data sets. The paleoproductivity reconstructions of these areas represent the mean productivity over long periods…
The impact of African aridity on the isotopic signature of Atlantic deep waters across the Middle Pleistocene Transition
A high resolution analysis of benthic foraminifera as well as of aeolian terrigenous proxies extracted from a 37 m-long marine core located off the Mauritanian margin spanning the last ~ 1.2 Ma, documents the possible link between major continental environmental changes with a shift in the isotopic signature of deep waters around 1.0–0.9 Ma, within the so-called Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT) time period. The increase in the oxygen isotopic com…
Provenance of freshwater pulses in the Gulf of Mexico during the last deglaciation
During the last deglaciation, the decaying Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) delivered huge volumes of meltwater toward the Gulf of Mexico. The present investigation of clay mineralogy and grain-size characteristics of terrigenous sediments deposited in the Orca Basin (Gulf of Mexico) offers a unique opportunity to link the marine record of these meltwater floods with the reconstructed continental glacial history and the modeled drainage patterns. Five …
Magnetostratigraphic dating of an intensification of glacial activity in the southern Italian Alps during Marine Isotope Stage 22
We applied magnetostratigraphy and mammal biostratigraphy to date climate-sensitive pollen cycles and lithostratigraphic units of the Pliocene–Pleistocene Leffe sedimentary succession from the Southern Alps, Italy. The Leffe section was correlated to additional sections (Casnigo, Fornaci di Ranica, and Pianengo) to construct a stratigraphic network along a common fluviatile system (the Serio River) sourced in the Southern Alps and flowing southwa…
Postglacial palaeoceanography in the Skagerrak
Crucial periods of change in the latest glacial to early-Holocene palaeogeographic and palaeoceanographic evolution in the Skagerrak region are portrayed in four time-slice maps on a calibrated age scale at 14.0 kyr, 11.2 kyr, 10.2 kyr and 8.1 kyr. The course of palaeoenvironmental events is set in a high-resolution chronological framework using IMAGES core MD99-2286 and a grid of chirp sonar profiles. These maps visualize the complex, rapid pala…
Rotación cenozoica de la Cordillera Occidental peruana y levantamiento de los Andes Centrales
Cenozoic rotation of Western Peruvian Cordillera and the Central Andes uplift Abstract A paleo-magnetic study was performed in the Lima (Peru) region from 39 reliable sampling positions of a total amount of 55 middle Cretaceous to late Miocene age (a 564 sampling), distributed through three NE-WS transverse lines cutting the Western Cordillera of Central Andes. For the entire area studied, all the paleo-magnetic declinations measured are invariab…
