Concluding remarks: Southern hemisphere paleoceanography in a global climate change context during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition
In this chapter, the foraminiferal faunal patterns of Core T89-40 are placed in a global palaeoceanographic context. The surface waters of the core location are influenced by the extent of the subtropical gyre versus the Benguela Upwelling System, in turn driven by a complex interaction between atmospheric circulation patterns. The planktonic foraminiferal record of Core T89-40 shows that maxim...
متن کاملNorth Atlantic Deep Water collapse triggered by a Southern Ocean meltwater pulse in a glacial climate state
[1] It is generally accepted that surface freshwater anomalies in the Southern Ocean drive increases in North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) formation via a bipolar density see-saw. We find that a Southern Ocean freshwater pulse of comparable magnitude to meltwater pulse 1A, shuts down, instead of strengthens, NADW in a glacial climate simulation. Unlike the modern-day simulation, the glacial exper...
متن کاملHave the Southern Westerlies changed in a zonally symmetric manner over the last 14,000 years? A hemisphere-wide take on a controversial problem
The prevailing view in the palaeoclimate literature of the last 20 years is that the Southern Westerly Winds (SWW) were intensified over southern Australia and Tasmania during the warmer-than-present early Holocene (11e8 ka). At similar latitudes on the opposite side of the southern mid-latitudes, palaeoclimate studies have suggested a poleward shift of the northern edge of the westerlies and f...
متن کاملSouthern Ocean control on the extent of denitrification in the southeast Pacific over the last 70 ka
Temporal changes in oceanic denitrification, the bacterial reduction of nitrate under suboxic conditions, highlight the potential importance of N inventory changes and the production of N2O on the climate system. At the same time, the cause of the globally observed variation in denitrification remains unclear. High-resolution benthic foraminiferal oxygen isotope and bulk sediment nitrogen isoto...
متن کاملAuthor's personal copy Controls on the East Asian monsoon during the last glacial cycle, based on comparison between Hulu Cave and polar ice-core records
Previous studies have suggested a sound chronological correlation between the Hulu Cave record (East Asian monsoon) and Greenland ice-core records, which implies a dominant control of northern hemisphere climate processes on monsoon intensity. We present an objective, straightforward statistical evaluation that challenges this generally accepted paradigm for sub-orbital variability. We propose ...
