description: Past global climate changes had strong regional expression. To elucidate their spatio-temporal pattern, we reconstructed past temperatures for seven continental-scale regions during the past one to two millennia. The most coherent feature in nearly all of the regional temperature reconstructions is a long-term cooling trend, which ended late in the nineteenth century. At multi-decadal to centennial scales, temperature variability shows distinctly different regional patterns, with more similarity within each hemisphere than between them. There were no globally synchronous multi-decadal warm or cold intervals that define a worldwide Medieval Warm Period or Little Ice Age, but all reconstructions show generally cold conditions between ad 1580 and 1880, punctuated in some regions by warm decades during the eighteenth century. The transition to these colder conditions occurred earlier in the Arctic, Europe and Asia than in North America or the Southern Hemisphere regions. Recent warming reversed the long-term cooling; during the period ad 1971-2000, the area-weighted average reconstructed temperature was higher than any other time in nearly 1,400 years.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Denmark Strait 2000 Year Multiproxy Sediment Data

description: In the area of Denmark Strait (~66° N), the two modes of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Arctic Oscillation (AO) are expressed in changes of the northward flux of Atlantic water and the southward advection of polar water in the East Iceland current. Proxies from marine cores along an environmental gradient from extensive to little or no drift ice, capture low frequency variations over the last 2000 cal yr BP. Key proxies are the weight% of calcite, a measure of surface water stratification and nutrient supply, the weight% of quartz, a measure of drift ice transport, and grain size. Records from Nansen and Kangerlussuaq fjords show variable ice-rafted debris (IRD) records but have distinct mineralogy associated with differences in the fjord catchment bedrock. A comparison between cores on either side of the Denmark Strait (MD99-2322 and MD99-2269) show a remarkable millennial-scale similarity in the trends of the weight% of calcite with a trough reached during the Little Ice Age. However, the quartz records from these two sites are quite different. The calcite records from the Denmark Strait parallel the 2000 yr Arctic summer-temperature reconstructions; analysis of the detrended calcite and quartz data reveal significant multi-decadal-century periodicities superimposed on a major environmental shift occurring ca. 1450 AD.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Atmospheric CO2 20 Million Year Foraminiferal B/Ca Reconstruction

description: We use new and published data representing a 20 million long record to discuss the systematics of interpreting planktic foraminiferal B/Ca ratios. B/Ca-based reconstructions of seawater carbonate chemistry and atmospheric pCO2 assume that the incorporation of boron into foraminiferal tests can be empirically described by an apparent partition coefficient, KD=(B/CaCaCO3)/(BOH4-/HCO3- seawater) (Hemming and Hanson, 1992). It has also been proposed that there is a species-specific relationship between KD and temperature (Yu et al., 2007). As we discuss, although these relationships may be robust, there remain significant uncertainties over the controls on boron incorporation into foraminifera. It is difficult to be certain that the empirically defined correlation between temperature and KD is not simply a result of covariance of temperature and other hydrographic variables in the ocean, including carbonate system parameters. There is also some evidence that KD may be affected by solution [HCO3-]/[CO32-] ratios (i.e., pH), or by [CO32-]. In addition, the theoretical basis for the definition of KD and for a temperature control on KD is of debate. We also discuss the sensitivity of pCO2 reconstructions to different KD-temperature calibrations and seawater B/Ca. If a KD-temperature calibration is estimated using ice core pCO2 values between 0 and 200 ka, B/Ca ratios can be used to reasonably approximate atmospheric pCO2 between 200 and 800 ka; however, the absolute values of pCO2 calculated are sensitive to the choice of KD-temperature relationship. For older time periods, the absolute values of pCO2 are also dependent on the evolution of seawater B concentrations. However, we find that over the last 20 Ma, reconstructed changes in declining pCO2 across the Mid-Pleistocene Transition, Pliocene glacial intensification, and the Middle Miocene Climate Transition are supported by the B/Ca record even if a constant coretop KD is used, or different KD-temperature calibrations and models of seawater B evolution are applied to the data. The inferred influence of temperature on KD from coretop data therefore cannot itself explain the structure of a published pCO2 reconstruction (Tripati et al., 2009). We conclude the raw B/Ca data supports a coupling between pCO2 and climate over the past 20 Ma. Finally, we explore possible implications of B/Ca-based pCO2 estimates for the interpretation of other marine pCO2 proxies.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Arctic Northwest Atlantic 646 Year Coralline Algae Sea Ice Record

description: Northern Hemisphere sea ice has been declining sharply over the past decades and 2012 exhibited the lowest Arctic summer sea-ice cover in historic times. Whereas ongoing changes are closely monitored through satellite observations, we have only limited data of past Arctic sea-ice cover derived from short historical records, indirect terrestrial proxies, and low-resolution marine sediment cores. A multicentury time series from extremely long-lived annual increment-forming crustose coralline algal buildups now provides the first high-resolution in situ marine proxy for sea-ice cover. Growth and Mg/Ca ratios of these Arctic-wide occurring calcified algae are sensitive to changes in both temperature and solar radiation. Growth sharply declines with increasing sea-ice blockage of light from the benthic algal habitat. The 646-y multisite record from the Canadian Arctic indicates that during the Little Ice Age, sea ice was extensive but highly variable on subdecadal time scales and coincided with an expansion of ice-dependent Thule/Labrador Inuit sea mammal hunters in the region. The past 150 y instead have been characterized by sea ice exhibiting multidecadal variability with a long-term decline distinctly steeper than at any time since the 14th century.
description: Samples of Clathromorphum compactum were live collected at Arctic Bay, Nunavut, Canada (73.0174°N; 85.1536°W, Sample AB1, 17m depth, lifespan 1779-2009) and off Kingitok Island, Labrador, Canada (55.3983°N; 59.8467°W, Sample Ki1, 17m depth, lifespan 1851-2011; Sample Ki2, 15m depth, lifespan 1365-2011). Mg/Ca ratios were measured along transects extending over the entire lifespan of each specimen using a JEOL JXA 8900 RL electron microprobe at the University of Göttingen, Germany. Samples were obtained along transect lines oriented perpendicular to the plane of calcite accretion. At each interval the specific subsample location was selected manually by moving the stage no more than 20 µm laterally from the transect line to avoid unsuitable sample locations (i.e., conceptacles= reproductive structures and uncalcified cell interiors). The relative mean standard deviations of multiple standard measurements were found to be no larger than 1.0 % for MgO and 1.2 % for CaO (2-sigma). Counting statistics errors vary between 1.0 relative % and 2.9 relative % for MgO and between 0.40 relative % and 0.62 relative % for CaO (2-sigma). Algal growth-increment widths were calculated from widths of annual Mg/Ca cycles. Reconstructions were standardized to have a mean of zero and unit variance. A combined algal record was calculated by averaging the normalized annual growth rates and annually-averaged Mg/Ca ratios from all three samples.

description: An improved understanding of the spatiotemporal climate/growth relationship of our forests is of particular importance for assessing the consequences of climate warming. A total of 67 stands of beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L.), sessile oak (Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl.), Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), and spruce (Picea abies Karst.) from sites located in the transition zone from the lowlands to the low mountain ranges of West Germany have been analysed. A combination of pointer year and cluster analysis was used to find groups with similar growth anomaly patterns over the 1941-2000 period. Shifted reaction patterns especially characterise differences in the growth behaviour of the clusters. These are controlled by different reactions to the climate conditions in winter and spring and are determined by a complex system of forcing factors. Results of this study reflect the enormous importance of the length of the growing season. Increasing the duration of the vegetation period climate warming can change the climate/growth relationship of trees, thereby confounding climate reconstructions which use tree rings. Since forcing factors have been detected that are more important than the tree species, we recommend the application of growth-specific approaches for the analysis of tree species' vulnerability to climate.

title: NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Subtropical North Atlantic Oxygen Isotope Data Spanning Marine Isotope Stages 6 thru 8

description: We present a high-resolution planktonic foraminiferal stable isotope record (Globigerinoides ruber) spanning marine oxygen isotope stages (MISs) 6 through 8 in the northwestern subtropical Atlantic Ocean (Ocean Drilling Program Leg 172 Site 1059). The record fills a gap to produce an about 1.3?Myr long continuous time series of high-frequency (> ~1/12?kyr) surface ocean hydrography, the first of this kind. We test the hypothesis that the suborbital climate signals (i.e., half and quarter precession cycles) are linked to precession forcing in tropical latitudes. Semiprecession cycles present between 0 and 320?ka are of the right periodicity to relate to the dominant precession forcing (23?kyr). These cycles are evident as double peaks within the given precession framework, and there is good match in the amplitude modulation of the filter output and the d18O time series. Quarter precession cycles dominate the suborbital spectra between 320?ka and 1.3?Ma. Periodicities are close to those expected from the harmonics of the dominant precession peaks in the d18O record, but present in the time series only intermittently, and their amplitude modulation does not match that of the primary precession period. Thus, only the half precession cycles evidence a response to low-latitude insolation such as that introduced by insolation maxima at the equinoxes or solstices during the course of a precession cycle. Additionally, we find well-defined, rapid (~1.5–2?kyr) variations across the first of the interglacial maxima of MIS 7 adding to evidence of non–ice sheet-related forcing factors in driving climate instabilities.
