However, the variations and controlling mechanisms of the regional hydrology during this warm period are not determined due to discrepancies among different proxy‐derived records. Here we apply a multiproxy approach based on the geochemistry of calcite nodules from a Red Clay sequence located on the southern edge of the Chinese Loess Plateau. Both the trace metal/Ca ratios and the carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions of calcite nodules show low values during 5.4–4.1 Ma and increased during 4.1–3.3 Ma, together indicating a humid climate during the early Pliocene, the onset of drying starting at ∼4.1 Ma and further intensification at 3.6 Ma. The timings of these hydrological transitions are consistent with global temperature changes, underlining the crucial role of meridional thermal gradient in shaping the regional hydroclimate over East Asia by modulating the strength and position of the East Asian summer monsoon.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44990537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Massive long‐lived corals have tremendous potential in this regard, continuously recording information about ocean conditions as they grow. Nevertheless, extracting accurate ocean temperatures from corals is challenging because factors other than temperature influence skeletal chemistry. Here, we tested the ability of the coral Sr‐U thermometer to accurately capture annual sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the subtropical Atlantic, where year‐to‐year temperatures vary by ∼1°C. Using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS), we generated sufficient U/Ca – Sr/Ca pairs from a slow‐growing (1−2 mm/yr) Siderastrea siderea coral to calculate annual Sr‐U values. With the fine‐scale spatial resolution attained using the laser, skeleton accreted during both fast and slow growing times of the year was represented in our sampling. The resulting 30‐year‐long Sr‐U record tracked the amplitude and timing of annual SST to within ±0.2°C of observations (r = −0.71), whereas the Sr/Ca record did not (r = 0.23). Furthermore, Sr‐U corrected for Sr/Ca offsets among adjacent skeletal elements approximately 1 mm apart. These offsets are equivalent to differences of 2–3°C if typical Sr/Ca–SST calibrations are applied. Our observations indicate that Sr‐U can accurately constrain decadal‐to‐multidecadal variability and secular SST trends in regions where this information is urgently needed.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44501131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, based on the elemental geochemistry of the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation shales in the upper Yangtze Platform, we analyzed the late Ordovician–early Silurian paleoenvironment and related geological processes, and further explored the origin of the OMA and CIEs. As a result, the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation shale was divided into four stages. During Stage 1 (late Katian, ∼447.62–444.50 Ma), local tectonic and volcanic activities controlled the paleoproductivity and redox conditions, facilitating the OMA. By contrast, the productivity of the surface water and the anoxic bottom water were mainly controlled by the global climate after the Hirnantian glaciation, which contributed to the OMA during Stage 2 (early Rhuddanian, ∼444.50–441.00 Ma). The decreasing sea level and rapid uplifting of Xuefeng and Qianzhong Uplifts resulted in the organic matter depletion during Stages 3 (late Rhuddanian, ∼441.00–440.80 Ma) and 4 (Aeronian, ∼440.80–439.21 Ma). Besides, the release of 12C–enriched carbon reservoirs triggered by volcanic activities and 13C–enrichment caused by the OMA regulated the carbon cycling: the negative CIE may be the result of light carbon emissions, such as the reactivated organic matter and mantle derived carbon, and the Hirnantian CIE event is jointly controlled by the weakened carbon emission effect and the OMA.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42231078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies on the pelagic clay in the western North Pacific Ocean demonstrated that the bulk chemical composition of sediments constitutes multielemental chemostratigraphy, deducing the correlation between visibly featureless pelagic clay layers across several cores. However, this heuristic approach utilized only a few elements. Therefore, this study employed multivariate statistical techniques, including k‐means cluster analysis, to analyze the chemical composition data set of 1,646 samples × 41 elements of the western North Pacific pelagic clay. The pelagic clay was classified into 10 clusters systematically aligned from the seafloor to the depth in a specific order, constituting stratigraphic units that reflected the high‐dimensional geochemical features of these 41 elements. This finding strongly supports the statistical robustness of the latent chemostratigraphy in the western North Pacific pelagic clay. Additionally, we performed Sr–Nd–Pb isotope analyses of the detrital silicate fractions of the centroid samples representing each cluster. The multi‐isotopic features of the detrital fraction varied from a mixture of North American and Asian dusts to a predominance of Asian dust superimposed by volcanic inputs. This secular variation in the matrix components is attributable to the northwestward motion of the Pacific Plate and the time‐varying influence of arc volcanism throughout sedimentary history. The proposed integrated approach of multivariate statistical and isotopic analyses effectively extracted the essential information hidden in the pelagic clay, which may postulate a new protocol for paleoceanographic reconstructions targeting the pelagic realm.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43015778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since GDGTs are produced in many types of environments, their relative abundances also depend on the depositional setting. This suggests that the distribution of GDGTs also preserves useful information that can be used more broadly to infer these depositional environments in the geological past. Here, we combined existing iso‐ and brGDGT relative abundance data with newly analyzed samples to generate a database of 1,153 samples from several modern sedimentary settings. We observed a robust relationship between the depositional environment and the relative abundances of GDGTs in our samples. This data set was used to train and test the Branched and isoGDGT Machine learning Classification (BIGMaC) algorithm, which identifies the environment a sample comes from based on the distribution of GDGTs with high precision and recall (F1 = 0.95). We tested the model on the sedimentary record from the Giraffe kimberlite pipe, an Eocene maar in subantarctic Canada, and found that the BIGMaC reconstruction agrees with independent stratigraphic and palynological information, provides new information about the paleoenvironment of this site, and helps improve its paleotemperature reconstruction. In contrast, we also include an example from the PETM‐aged Cobham lignite as a cautionary example that illustrates the limitations of the algorithm. We propose that in cases where paleoenvironments are unknown or are changing, BIGMaC can be applied in concert with other proxies to generate more refined paleoclimate records.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48127108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent work has suggested that the size of the DOC reservoir may respond to variations in sea temperature and global overturning circulation strength. Moreover, mobilization of marine DOC has been implicated in paleoclimate events including Cryogenian glaciation and Eocene hyperthermals. Despite these suggestions, the dynamics of the marine DOC reservoir are poorly understood, and previous carbon cycle modeling has generally assumed this reservoir to be static. In this study, we utilize an Earth system model of intermediate complexity to assess the response of the marine DOC reservoir to various glacial boundary conditions. Our results indicate that the marine DOC reservoir is responsive to glacial perturbations and may shrink or expand on the order of 10–100 Pg C. In contrast to recent studies that emphasize the importance of DOC degradation in driving the mobility of DOC reservoir, our study indicates the importance of DOC production. In the experiment under full glacial boundary conditions, for example, a 19% drop in net primary production leads to an 81 Pg C reduction in the DOC pool, without which the atmospheric CO2 concentration would have been lower by approximately 38 ppm by dissolved inorganic carbon changes alone. Thus, DOC reservoir variability is necessary to fully account for the simulated changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration. Our findings based on glacial experiments are corroborated in a different set of simulations using freshwater flux to induce weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46185272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Paleoclimate proxy records point to distinct but regionally variable hydroclimatic changes during these past warm intervals. However, model simulations have generally disagreed on North American regional moisture patterns during the MH and LIG. To investigate how closely the latest generation of models associated with the Paleoclimate Model Intercomparison Project (PMIP4) reproduces proxy‐inferred moisture patterns during recent warm periods, we compare hydroclimate output from 17 PMIP4 models with newly updated compilations of moisture‐sensitive North American proxy records during the MH and LIG. Agreement is lower for the MH, with models producing wet anomalies across the western United States (US) where most proxies indicate increased aridity relative to the preindustrial period. The models that agree most closely with the LIG proxy compilation display relative wetness in the eastern US and Alaska, and dryness in the northwest and central US. An assessment of atmospheric dynamics using an ensemble of the three LIG simulations that best agree with the proxies suggests that weaker winter North Pacific pressure gradients and steeper summer North Pacific and Atlantic gradients drive LIG precipitation patterns. Our updated compilations and proxy‐model comparisons offer a tool for benchmarking climate models and their performance in simulating climate states that are warmer than present.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42641412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we used a novel approach to better constrain the proxy recording depths by investigating paleotemperature proxies (TEX86, U37K′ ${mathrm{U}}_{37}^{{mathrm{K}}^{prime }}$ , RI−OH and RI−OH′) from two pairs of proximal (<12 km apart) cores from Chilean and Angola margins, respectively. These cores are from steep continental slopes and lower shelves, which leads to a substantial difference in water depth between them despite being closely located. Surprisingly, the deep and the shallow U37K′ ${mathrm{U}}_{37}^{{mathrm{K}}^{prime }}$ records at the Chilean margin show dissimilarities, in contrast to the similar records from the Angola margin, which may be due to post‐depositional alteration at the former sites. In contrast, the TEX86 records were statistically indistinguishable between the sites at both the locations, even though the GDGT [2]/[3] ratio suggests GDGTs derived from potentially different archaeal communities residing at different depths. A short‐lived difference between the TEX86 records is observed during the last glacial period at the Angola margin, possibly due to a contribution of Antarctic Intermediate Waters to the deep site. Modelling suggests that the TEX86 source signal at our core sites reaches its peak abundance at water depths shallower than 350 m. The RI−OH and RI−OH′ records show similar variability as the TEX86 records, although regional differences in their absolute temperature estimates exist.

Some climate simulations suggest that reduced AMOC decreases bottom water ventilation and that the heat absorbed by the ocean starts to mix downwards, warming Atlantic intermediate waters. This has been corroborated for the western North Atlantic by benthic foraminifera geochemical records from periods of reduced AMOC during the last deglaciation. However, the deep‐water response remains poorly constrained, and the lack of direct paleotemperature reconstructions limits our understanding about the effects of reduced circulation on ocean heat uptake. We present a new reconstruction of bottom water temperatures from core GeoB9508‐5 (2,384 m water depth, 15°29.90°N/17°56.88°W) off the northwestern African Margin. Our paleotemperature record, based on Uvigerina spp. Mg/Ca, shows two episodes of intense transient deep water warming in times of decreasing overturning circulation, followed by long periods of heat uptake stagnation. First, during AMOC slowdown in the Heinrich stadial 1, when paleotemperatures of ∼2°C persisted for ∼5.4 Kyr coincident with the weakest stage of AMOC; and second in the Younger Dryas, when bottom water temperatures >4°C lasted ∼2.5 Kyr during a less intense AMOC decline. This suggests a stagnation of deep‐water heat uptake in the deep NE Atlantic possibly linked to a reduced downward advection of heat during times of a reduced AMOC, supporting the hypothesis that AMOC strength sets the depth of oceanic heat storage in the North Atlantic.","PeriodicalId":54239,"journal":{"name":"Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47358704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
