A ∼200 ka pollen record from Okinawa Trough: Paleoenvironment reconstruction of glacial-interglacial cycles

Theories and Modeling of Glacial–Interglacial Cycles and Glacial Inception

Role of marine biology in glacial-interglacial CO2 cycles.

It has been hypothesized that changes in the marine biological pump caused a major portion of the glacial reduction of atmospheric carbon dioxide by 80 to 100 parts per million through increased iron fertilization of marine plankton, increased ocean nutrient content or utilization, or shifts in dominant plankton types. We analyze sedimentary records of marine productivity at the peak and the mi...

Interglacial and glacial variability from the last 800 ka in marine, ice and terrestrial archives

We have compiled 37 ice, marine and terrestrial palaeoclimate records covering the last 800 000 years in order to assess the pattern of glacial and interglacial strength, and termination amplitude. Records were selected based on their length, completeness and resolution, and their age models were updated, where required, by alignment to the LR04 benthic δ18O stack. The resulting compilation all...

GEOLOGICAL NOTES Quaternary Glacial-Interglacial Climate Cycles in Hawaii

The upper kilometer of the Hawaiian Scientific Drilling Program core consists of lavas that were emplaced subaerially, burying paleosols. These paleosols were preserved with minimal alteration and are used to construct a ∼330-kyr Quaternary climate record. Within the temporal resolution of this record, there appears to be a ∼100-kyr climate oscillation between cool-dry and warm-wet conditions, ...
