A Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific carbonate compensation depth

Heiko Pälike, +70 more
- 30 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: A carbonate accumulation record that covers the past 53 million years from a depth transect in the equatorial Pacific Ocean is presented and large superimposed fluctuations in carbonate compensation depth are found during the middle and late Eocene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coral reefs at 34°N, Japan: Exploring the end of environmental gradients

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the architecture and development of the highest latitude coral reefs currently known on Earth, located in Japan at 34°N. The reefs are distributed within turbid inner bays and undergo winter sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) that fall to 13 °C, well below the generally accepted lower limit (18 °C in winter) of tropical coral reef formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sr‐Nd isotope composition and clay mineral assemblages in eolian dust from the central Philippine Sea over the last 600 kyr: Implications for the transport mechanism of Asian dust

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the influence of two prevailing dust sources, namely, the Asian deserts and nearby volcanic arcs (e.g., the Luzon Arc), with average contributions of around 70% and 30%, respectively, from each.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and temporal distribution of Pu in the Northwest Pacific Ocean using modern coral archives.

TL;DR: The main Pu source in the Northwest Pacific is fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons testing which consists of global fallout and close-in fallout from the former US Pacific Proving Grounds (PPG) in the Marshall Islands.
