North Atlantic surface-ocean control of Pleistocene deep-ocean circulation
Deep basins of the North Atlantic were occupied by a cold 13 C-depleted (nutrient-rich) water mass during glaciations, and a warmer 13C-enriched (nutrient-poor) water mass (modern NADW) during interglaciations. This mode of deep-water variability is related directly to migration of the North Atlantic Polar Front. Down-core stable isotope records from the Atlantic and Antarctic suggest that 13C ...
متن کاملSensitive moisture response to Holocene millennial-scale climate variations in the Mid-Atlantic region, USA
Millennial-scale climate variability has been increasingly recognized as one of the most prominent features of the Holocene. However, regional responses, especially in terms of moisture conditions, are poorly documented and understood. Here we present lithologic and magnetic evidence from White Lake in northern New Jersey, USA, to show that low lake levels occurred at about 1.3, 3.0, 4.4 and 6....

متن کاملLarge-scale variability in surface bacterial carbon demand and growth efficiency in the subtropical northeast Atlantic Ocean
We present surface estimates of bacterial respiration, bacterial heterotrophic production (BHP), and bacterial growth efficiency (BGE), and their relationship with nutrient availability, along a trophic gradient from coastal upwelling waters to the open-ocean waters of the eastern North Atlantic. Bacterial respiration generally ranged between 10 and 30 mg C L21 d21 and was relatively unaffected...
متن کاملDissolved iron in the tropical and subtropical Atlantic Ocean
[1] Detailed depth profiles and surface transects of dissolved iron (DFe defined by 0.4-mm filtration) were investigated on three cruises in the subtropical and tropical Atlantic Ocean where dust deposition varied by 3 orders of magnitude. Surface DFe and dissolved Mn concentrations reflected dust deposition trends, but are not proportional to the estimated inputs. Using estimates of the atmosp...
