Quaternary floodings in the Zanzibar Channel (NW Indian Ocean, Tanzania) – Identifying palaeoceanographic patterns and palaeoenvironment using a multiproxy study
Multiproxy palaeoenvironmental analyses represent a promising tool for complex reconstructions of continent-sea or air-sea interactions in shallow marine environments. This is in particular illustrated by the case of strong climatic variations in the late Pleistocene to mid-Holocene. A unique combination of geochemical proxies (143Nd/144Nd, 87Sr/86Sr, δ18O and δ13C isotope analyses, n-alkane analysis and biomarker study) together with micropalaeontological data (foraminifera, calcareous nannoplankton and diatoms) allowed to precisely characterise two marine floodings (mid-Holocene and late Pleistocene) in the Zanzibar Channel (NW Indian Ocean, Tanzania). The climate of the late Pleistocene interval was arid compared to the Holocene. The fully oligotrophic environment characteristic of the late Pleistocene flooding (∼115–130 ka) was episodically interrupted by intervals of intense rainfall with episodes of increased nutrient input during the mid-Holocene (∼5–10 ka). The dominance of seaweed meadows in the Holocene and late Pleistocene contrasts with the modern environment dominated by seagrass ecosystems. Relatively non-radiogenic εNd signatures in the Zanzibar Channel during the Holocene and late Pleistocene indicate a strong influence of riverine input draining the Precambrian basement on the African mainland. The main inflow of seawater was from the south, consistent with the flow direction of the East African Coastal Current and the directions of the March to October monsoon winds. A promising tool for future applications as indicators of seagrass/seaweed meadow type ecosystems may be the presence of specific diatom taxa.
期刊介绍:
Marine Geology is the premier international journal on marine geological processes in the broadest sense. We seek papers that are comprehensive, interdisciplinary and synthetic that will be lasting contributions to the field. Although most papers are based on regional studies, they must demonstrate new findings of international significance. We accept papers on subjects as diverse as seafloor hydrothermal systems, beach dynamics, early diagenesis, microbiological studies in sediments, palaeoclimate studies and geophysical studies of the seabed. We encourage papers that address emerging new fields, for example the influence of anthropogenic processes on coastal/marine geology and coastal/marine geoarchaeology. We insist that the papers are concerned with the marine realm and that they deal with geology: with rocks, sediments, and physical and chemical processes affecting them. Papers should address scientific hypotheses: highly descriptive data compilations or papers that deal only with marine management and risk assessment should be submitted to other journals. Papers on laboratory or modelling studies must demonstrate direct relevance to marine processes or deposits. The primary criteria for acceptance of papers is that the science is of high quality, novel, significant, and of broad international interest.
