Changing atmospheric Δ14C and the record of deep water paleoventilation ages

TL;DR: In this paper, a new calculation method was proposed to better estimate the deep water ventilation age from benthic-planktonic foraminifera, and they found that the Pacific intermediate and deep waters were about 600 years older than today at the last glacial maximum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Varied Response of Western Pacific Hydrology to Climate Forcings over the Last Glacial Period

TL;DR: Four absolutely dated, overlapping stalagmite oxygen isotopic records from northern Borneo that span most of the last glacial cycle suggest that the deep tropical Pacific hydroclimate variability may have played an important role in shaping the global response to the largest abrupt climate change events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sr/Ca and Mg/Ca vital effects correlated with skeletal architecture in a scleractinian deep-sea coral and the role of Rayleigh fractionation

TL;DR: This article measured detailed collocated Sr/Ca and Mg/Ca ratios, using a combination of micromilling and isotope-dilution ICP-MS across skeletal features in recent samples of Desmophyllum dianthus, a scleractinian coral that grows in the near constant environment of the deep-sea.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diurnal to interannual rainfall δ 18 O variations in northern Borneo driven by regional hydrology

TL;DR: In this article, a daily-resolved, 5-yr-long timeseries of rainfall δ18O from Gunung Mulu National Park, located in northern Borneo (4°N, 114°E) in the heart of the West Pacific Warm Pool, and compare it to local and regional climatic variables.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seawater transport during coral biomineralization

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured isotope ratio profiles of coral skeletons and showed that the transition from natural abundance ratios to stable isotopes of calcium, strontium, and barium is a key process controlling metal/calcium (Me/Ca) paleoproxy behavior in coral.
