title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Line Islands Northern Equatorial Pacific Authigenic Metal Data 0-144 ka

description: The expansion of oxygen-deficient zones (ODZs) within the ocean interior is anticipated to be a major consequence of anthropogenic climate change, but past changes in ODZs are poorly defined. Recent mapping efforts have revealed plumes of the redox active metal cobalt within ODZs, driving a basin-scale correlation between high cobalt and low O2. Here, we investigate the cobalt flux to Equatorial Pacific sediments as a novel paleoceanographic record of basin-scale fluctuations in ODZ extent. After accounting for remobilization by diagenesis, we document a ~40% increase in cobalt accumulation over the last glacial period, with a more pronounced peak during the Last Glacial Maximum, indicative of larger ODZs compared to the Holocene. Our results link ODZ expansion with colder climates and lend support to model-based assertions that ongoing deoxygenation may reflect a transient response to warming.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Lisiecki and Raymo 2005 Global Pliocene-Pleistocene Benthic d18O Stack

description: We present a 5.3-Myr stack (the "LR04" stack) of benthic δ18O records from 57 globally distributed sites aligned by an automated graphic correlation algorithm. This is the first benthic δ18O stack composed of more than three records to extend beyond 850 ka, and we use its improved signal quality to identify 24 new marine isotope stages in the early Pliocene. We also present a new LR04 age model for the Pliocene-Pleistocene derived from tuning the δ18O stack to a simple ice model based on 21 June insolation at 65°N. Stacked sedimentation rates provide additional age model constraints to prevent overtuning. Despite a conservative tuning strategy, the LR04 benthic stack exhibits significant coherency with insolation in the obliquity band throughout the entire 5.3 Myr and in the precession band for more than half of the record. The LR04 stack contains significantly more variance in benthic δ18O than previously published stacks of the late Pleistocene as the result of higher-resolution records, a better alignment technique, and a greater percentage of records from the Atlantic. Finally, the relative phases of the stack's 41- and 23-kyr components suggest that the precession component of δ18O from 2.7–1.6 Ma is primarily a deep-water temperature signal and that the phase of δ18O precession response changed suddenly at 1.6 Ma.

The LR04 stack spans 5.3 Myr and was constructed by graphically aligning 57 globally distributed benthic d18O records. Its age model is orbitally tuned to June 21 insolation at 65N but is also constrained by the average sedimentation rates of the 57 sites.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Touchan - Caňada de las Fuentes - PINI - ITRDB ESP085

description: The first large-scale network of tree-ring chronologies from the western Mediterranean (WM; 32°N–43°N, 10°W–17°E) is described and analyzed to identify the seasonal climatic signal in indices of annual ring width. Correlation and rotated empirical orthogonal function analyses are applied to 85 tree-ring series and corresponding gridded climate data to assess the climate signal embedded in the network. Chronologies range in length from 80 to 1129 years. Monthly correlations and partial correlations show overall positive associations for Pinus halepensis (PIHA) and Cedrus atlantica (CDAT) with winter (December–February) and spring (March–May) precipitation across this network. In both seasons, the precipitation correlation with PIHA is stronger, while CDAT chronologies tend to be longer. A combination of positive correlations between growth and winter–summer precipitation and negative partial correlations with growing season temperatures suggests that chronologies in at least part of the network reflect soil moisture and the integrated effects of precipitation and evapotranspiration signal. The range of climate response observed across this network reflects a combination of both species and geographic influences. Western Moroccan chronologies have the strongest association with the North Atlantic Oscillation.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Labrador Sea Sediment Color, CaCO3, and Oxygen Isotope Data during the Quaternary

description: Sites of ice-stream discharge to the continental slope build trough-mouth fans from glacigenic debris flows (GDFs), subglacial meltwater flows, and suspended sediment. Thus, past ice configurations may be interpreted from the sedimentological record. This study links the records in cores, high-resolution seismic profiles, and multibeam swath bathymetry of Hatton Slope and Fan to the changing glaciological history in Hudson Strait, one of the largest ice streams of the late Pleistocene Laurentide Ice Sheet. 14C-AMS dates, X-ray fluorescence geochemical profiles, and oxygen isotopes in sixteen cores document sediment supply during the last glacial cycle, and earlier history is interpreted from seismic data. The Frobisher Bay slope sector has a long record of GDF deposits from severe glacial periods between MIS 6 and 22, with little impact of meltwater discharge. Mass-transport events and aggrading gravel-floored valleys dominate the northern Hatton slope sector. The central slope sector shows the greatest shelf break progradation by till deposition, with kilometre-spaced gullies heading at 700–730 mbsl from the last major grounding of the ice-stream on the upper slope during Heinrich event 3 (H3). The gullies pass downslope into ~5 km wide valleys, which have been sites of sediment bypass since widespread meltwater flow in MIS 6 and show little aggradation since MIS 16. Intervening >50 m high ridges show alternating levee accretion and erosion by shallow mass-transport events. Downslope on Hatton Fan, GDFs are common and fill wide erosional channels that lead to the sandy braid plain of the central Labrador Sea. The channels of the southern sector and Saglek Slope have channeled turbidity currents down the NAMOC, and stratified contourite deposits accumulated on the fan. Over the MIS 1–3 period widely represented by cores, ice was grounded in Hatton Basin and on the upper slope to 700 m water depth only immediately prior to H3. Older and younger H events had a floating ice-shelf in Hatton Basin, and sedimentation was dominated by the retreat of that ice shelf to Resolution Island. Distal cores show no systematic difference between the H1–top H3 interval and the base H3–H5 interval. Given the supply of carbonate detritus of consistent composition back to at least H5, any MIS 3 deglaciation of Hudson Bay would require improbably high growth rates of ice sheets in the centre of the continent.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Andrus - Little Mountain - THPL - ITRDB WA164

description: Aim: Forest dieback is increasing in many forest ecosystems from unfavorable climate conditions. Western redcedar (WRC)–a culturally, ecologically, and economically important species–has recently experienced anomalously high mortality rates and partial canopy dieback. We investigated how WRC tree radial growth and dieback responded to climate variability and drought using tree-ring methods. Location: Pacific Northwest, USA. Taxon: western redcedar (Thuja plicata). Methods: We collected tree cores from three tree health status groups (no canopy dieback, partial canopy dieback, and dead trees) at 11 sites in coastal (maritime climate) and interior (continental climate) WRC populations as well as previously published climate and weather data. From growth rates, we computed four growth indices evaluating the resilience to drought. Results: Warmer and drier climate conditions in May and June that extend the annual July-to-September dry season reduced radial growth in 9 of 11 sites (1975-2020). WRC trees recovered radial growth to pre-drought rates within three years when post-drought climate conditions were average or cooler/wetter than average. However, recovery from drought was slower or absent when conditions were warmer/drier during the post-drought recovery period, which appeared to lead to the widespread mortality event across the coastal populations. WRC tree mortality was portended by 4-5 years of declining radial growth. Annually-resolved tree mortality in coastal populations predominately occurred in 2017-2018 (80% of sampled dead trees) and coincided with exceedingly hot temperatures and the longest regionally dry period from May to September (1970-2020). In interior populations, tree mortality was dispersed among years but associated with warmer and drier conditions from August to September. Main conclusions: Our findings forewarn that a warming climate and more frequent and severe summer droughts, especially in consecutive years, will likely increase the vulnerability of WRC to canopy dieback and mortality and possibly other drought-sensitive trees in one of the world’s largest carbon sinks.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Miramont - Drouzet River DRM2 Floating - PISY - ITRDB FRA054

description: We present new 14C results measured on subfossil Scots Pines recovered in the eroded banks of the Drouzet watercourse in the Southern French Alps. About 400 new 14C ages have been analysed on 15 trees sampled at annual resolution. The resulting Δ14C record exhibits an abrupt spike occurring in a single year at 14 300–14 299 cal yr BP and a century-long event between 14 and 13.9 cal kyr BP. In order to identify the causes of these events, we compare the Drouzet Δ14C record with simulations of Δ14C based on the 10Be record in Greenland ice used as an input of a carbon cycle model. The correspondence with 10Be anomalies allows us to propose the 14.3 cal kyr BP event as a solar energetic particle event. By contrast, the 14 cal kyr BP event lasted about a century and is most probably a common Maunder-type solar minimum linked to the modulation of galactic cosmic particles by the heliomagnetic field. We also discuss and speculate about the synchroneity and the possible causes of the 14 cal kyr BP event with the brief cold phase called Older Dryas, which separates the Bølling and Allerød millennium-long warm phases of the Late Glacial period.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Stoneman Lake Arizona, USA, Magnetic Susceptibility and XRF Count Data Over the Past 1.3 Ma

description: Predicting responses of semi-arid to montane landscapes in southwestern North America to ongoing anthropogenic changes requires understanding of past interplay among geomorphic, ecologic, and climatic factors. This study utilizes modern weathering and sediment transport processes to inform the interpretation of a 250-kyr lacustrine sediment record of paleoecology, hydrology, and erosion from a small, closed basin, basaltic catchment on the southwestern edge of the Colorado Plateau. Geochemical and mineralogical analyses of bedrock, colluvium, and lake sediments indicate clastic sediments in the basin are a mixture of local physical weathering products (albite and ilmenite) and eolian dust (quartz, illite, and zircon). Dust fractions increase during glacial periods coincident with lower overall sedimentation rates suggesting this pattern results from decreased local erosion rates, not increased dust deposition. Titanium counts from XRF core scanning records past local erosion rates by tracing ilmenite content. The highest erosion rates, inferred from the highest Ti counts, follow climatic transitions towards interglacial conditions (MIS 5e, 3a, and the Holocene), periods characterized by vegetation changeover (observed in the core’s pollen record), higher temperatures (piñon-juniper-oak pollen abundance), lower effective precipitation (shallow lake facies), and increased wildfire activity (microscopic charcoal particle counts and sizes). While brief inferred episodes of erosion occur following abrupt transitions to cooler and wetter conditions indicated by abundance of subalpine tree (spruce and fir) pollen and deeper lake facies, landscapes appear more stable during glacial periods. This long-term perspective suggests that increased aridity and its consequences of vegetation succession and increased forest fires will increase erosion rates here and in similar settings regionwide.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Murada, Pot au Feu Geochemical Data from 125500 to 68500 Cal Yr BP

description: This study explores the climatic variability in the Iberian Peninsula (IP) and its surrounding seas from 140 to 65 kyr BP. Marine sediment cores and cave speleothems are used to reconstruct changes in sea surface water conditions, deep sea current intensities and atmospheric moisture availability based on stable isotopes, trace elements, grain size and XRF-elemental analysis. Oxygen isotopes in both terrestrial and oceanic archives recorded a large-scale precessional climatic rhythm that suggests a common modulation. This signal is interpreted as changes of the isotopic composition in the rainwater source area that is later transmitted into the cave. In terms of millennial-scale variability, the records trace the sequence of events defined for the North Atlantic region. The marine records show an intense sea-surface freshening and cooling related to Heinrich Event 11. During the Last Interglacial (LIG), the sea surface temperature evolution was heterogeneous around the IP with gradients larger than those from today. The LIG ended earlier in the Cantabrian Sea than in the western Mediterranean Sea, which it was coincident with an accelerated aridification phase that marked the glacial inception in a Minorca speleothem at 116.5 kyr BP and preceding the GS25. This was the first of a series of stadials that punctuated the early glaciation and where the sea thermal gradient almost disappeared around the IP. These intense cooling during stadials led the development of drier but intense westerlies over southern European latitudes, reflected in a Pyrenees speleothem record, and favouring enhanced deep convection in the western Mediterranean Sea. In contrast to this stadial regional homogeneity among the studied records, the interstadials periods are distinguished by their rather heterogeneous patterns around the IP pointing to much complex ocean-atmosphere interconnections during warm intervals.
