Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid environmental changes in southern Europe during the last glacial period

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present high-resolution geochemical, physical and pollen data from lake sediments in Italy and from a Mediterranean sediment core, linked by a common tephrochronology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alkenone and boron based Pliocene pCO2 records

TL;DR: This article used a combination of foraminiferal (δ11B) and organic biomarker (alkenone-derived carbon isotopes) proxies to determine the concentration of atmospheric CO2 over the past 5 Ma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent benthic foraminifera from the eastern South Atlantic Ocean: Dependence on food supply and water masses

TL;DR: In this article, surface sediment samples from the eastern South Atlantic Ocean including the Walvis Ridge, the Angola and Cape basins, and the Southwest African continental margin were analysed for their benthic foraminiferal content to unravel faunal distribution patterns and ecological preferences.
Journal ArticleDOI

The δ13C in benthic foraminiferal tests of Fontbotia wuellerstorfi (Schwager) Relative to the δ13C of dissolved inorganic carbon in Southern Ocean Deep Water: Implications for glacial ocean circulation models

TL;DR: On a transect between 20° and 70°S in the eastern Atlantic Ocean and Weddell Sea, water samples from 19 hydrographic stations and bottom water from 55 surface sediment samples taken with a multiple corer were investigated for the stable carbon isotopic composition of the total dissolved inorganic carbon (δ13CΣCO2).
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep-sea foraminifera in the South Atlantic Ocean; ecology and assemblage generation

TL;DR: In this paper, benthic foraminiferal assemblages of 237 high-quality surface sediment samples from the South Atlantic Ocean, including the Atlantic sector of the circumpolar ocean, were quantitatively analyzed.
