Asynchronous instability of the North American-Arctic and Greenland ice sheets during the last deglaciation
The chronology of deglacial meltwater pulses from the Laurentide Ice Sheet is well documented. However, the deglacial history of the North American-Arctic (north-eastern Laurentide and Innuitian) and western Greenland ice sheets draining into the Labrador Sea via Baffin Bay is less well constrained. Here we present new high-resolution, radiocarbon-dated records from the central Baffin Bay spann...
متن کاملThe dynamics of the marine nitrogen cycle across the last deglaciation
[1] We use a geochemical box model to investigate the changes in marine N-fixation and denitrification required to match the observed sedimentary ı15N changes between 30 kyr B.P. and the late Holocene. This is achieved by optimizing a set of seven parameters that describe the strengths of three ocean-internal N feedbacks and the response of the oceanic N cycle to four external forcings. Scenari...
متن کاملGlobal climate evolution during the last deglaciation.
Deciphering the evolution of global climate from the end of the Last Glacial Maximum approximately 19 ka to the early Holocene 11 ka presents an outstanding opportunity for understanding the transient response of Earth's climate system to external and internal forcings. During this interval of global warming, the decay of ice sheets caused global mean sea level to rise by approximately 80 m; te...
متن کاملDirect ventilation of the North Pacific did not reach the deep ocean during the last deglaciation
[1] Despite its tremendous size, the deep North Pacific has received relatively little attention by paleoceanographers. It was recently suggested that the deep North Pacific was directly ventilated by dense waters formed in the subarctic Pacific during Heinrich Stadial 1 (HS1) of the early deglaciation. Here we present new redox-sensitive trace metal data from a sediment core at 2393m in the su...
متن کاملSouthern Ocean source of 14C-depleted carbon in the North Pacific Ocean during the last deglaciation
During the last deglaciation, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations rose at the same time that the 114C of that CO2 fell. This has been attributed to the release of 14C-depleted carbon dioxide from the deep ocean1, possibly vented through the Southern Ocean2–5. Recently, a sediment record from the eastern North Pacific Ocean spanning the last deglaciation was interpreted to reflect transpor...
