Solar and tidal reverberations of deglaciation records from the tropical western Pacific: a clean spectral approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
The search for the role of solar and tidal cycles in terrestrial climate records is an interesting curiosity. Powerful clean spectroscopy of high resolution carbon and oxygen isotope records from the tropical western Pacific Sulu Sea, over the past 9000–22000 years reveals statistically significant (at >90% confidence interval) spectral lines corresponding to periods of 2980, 690, 322, 250, 174 and 140 years and 1100, 533, 425, 183 and 151 years, respectively. These spectral peaks fall into different solar-climate frequency bands and have beat relationships to each other. The results suggest intricate physical linkages between solar and climate cycles and provide significant information for understanding solar-terrestrial climate variability in the past centuries.

Effects of Spartina alterniflora invasion on distribution of Moerella iridescens in a tidal flat of Western Pacific Ocean
The invasion of Spartina alterniflora significantly affected the local ecosystem of Western Pacific Ocean where Moerella iridescens lives. Five patches with different invasion stages of S. alterniflora were selected and the influence on distribution of M. iridescens was studied on the coast of Wenzhou Bay, China in 2007. The aggregated distribution pattern was proved by using Taylor's power re...

متن کاملLeast Squares Techniques for Extracting Water Level Fluctuations in the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea
Extracting the main cyclic fluctuations from sea level changes of the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea is vital for understanding the behavior of tides and isolating non-tidal impacts such as those related to climate and changes in the ocean-sea circulations. This study compares two spectral analysis methods including: Least Squares Spectral Analysis (LSSA) and Least Squares Harmonic Estimation (LSHE)...
متن کاملEarly deglaciation in the tropical Andes.
Tropical Andes The record of ancient glaciers is the principal source of information on high-altitude paleoclimate in the tropics, but the age of late Pleistocene glaciation throughout the tropics is poorly constrained, which complicates estimating past climate from glacial records. Seltzer et al. (1) established that maximum late Pleistocene glaciation in the tropical Andes was broadly synchro...

Tidal energy is a clean, reliable and available energy that exits vastly. Moreover, it can be offered to most of coastal regions and cities. This clean energy can be used in littoral zones worldwide , together with islands and coasts ofIransuch as Chabahar. Furthermore, from ecosystem point of view, this energy is useful for increasing coral reefs and also using organic materials in diffe...
