A 100-year record of North Pacific volcanism in an ice core from Eclipse Icefield, Yukon Territory, Canada
[1] A record of regionally significant volcanic eruptions in the North Pacific over the last century has been developed using a glaciochemical record from Eclipse Icefield, Yukon Territory, Canada. Tephrochronology of the Eclipse ice core provides positive identification of the 1907 Ksudach, Kamchatka, the 1912 Katmai, Alaska, the 1947 Hekla, Iceland, and the 1989 Redoubt, Alaska, eruptions. No...
متن کاملBristlecone pine tree rings and volcanic eruptions over the last 5000 yr
Many years of low growth identified in a western USA regional chronology of upper forest border bristlecone pine (Pinus longaeva and Pinus aristata) over the last 5000 yr coincide with known large explosive volcanic eruptions and/or ice core signals of past eruptions. Over the last millennium the agreement between the tree-ring data and volcano/ice-core data is high: years of ring-width minima ...
متن کاملVolcanic forcing of climate over the past 1500 years: An improved ice core-based index for climate models
[1] Understanding natural causes of climate change is vital to evaluate the relative impacts of human pollution and land surface modification on climate. We have investigated one of the most important natural causes of climate change, volcanic eruptions, by using 54 ice core records from both the Arctic and Antarctica. Our recently collected suite of ice core data, more than double the number o...
متن کاملMagma degassing during subglacial eruptions and its use to reconstruct palaeo-ice thicknesses
15 16 The degassing of magmatic volatiles during eruptions beneath ice sheets and glaciers, 17 as recorded by the dissolved volatile content quenched in volcanic rocks, could 18 provide powerful new constraints on former ice thicknesses in volcanic areas. As 19 volcanic rocks are readily dateable using radiometric methods, subglacial volcanoes 20 may therefore provide crucial information on the...
متن کاملTephrochronology of the Siple Dome ice core, West Antarctica: correlations and sources
A total of 24 tephra-bearing volcanic layers have been recognized between 550 and 987 m depth in the Siple Dome A (SDM-A) ice core, in addition to a number already recognized tephra in the upper 550 m (Dunbar et al., 2003; Kurbatov et al., 2006). The uniform composition and distinctive morphological of the particles composing these tephra layers suggest deposition as a result of explosive volca...
