Sub sea surface temperatures in the Polar North Atlantic during the Holocene
Holocene sea surface temperatures in the eastern Fram Strait are reconstructed based on Mg/Ca ratios measured on the planktic foraminifer Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (sin). The reconstructed sub sea surface temperatures (sSST Mg/Ca ) fluctuate markedly during the earliest Holocene at ~11.7 and 10.5 kyr BP. This is probably in response to the varying presence of sea-ice and deglacial meltwater. Between ~10.5–7.9 kyr BP, the sSST Mg/Ca values are r…
Cooling and freshening at 8.2 ka on the NW Iceland Shelf recorded in paired δ 18 O and Mg/Ca measurements of the benthic foraminifer Cibicides lobatulus
A shallow marine sediment core from NW Iceland provides evidence for a brief cooling and freshening at ~ 8200 cal yr BP, consistent with the hypothesis that the catastrophic outburst flood of the proglacial lakes Oijbway and Agassiz caused the 8.2 ka event. This is the first high-resolution record reconstructing near-surface temperatures and δ 18 O sw by paired measurements of Mg/Ca and δ 18 O calcite of a benthic foraminifer. We developed a new …
Precise Temporal Correlation of Holocene Mollusk Shells Using Sclerochronology
Annual growth bands of mollusk shells record several types of paleoenvironmental information, including geochemical proxies for water properties and morphological characteristics of growth and mortality. Sclerochronology, the marine counterpart of dendrochronology, offers a way to link individual shells together to form long continuous records of such parameters. It also allows for precise dating of recent shells and identification of contemporan…
