متن کاملDiatom Evidence for the Onset of Pliocene Cooling from AND-1B, McMurdo Sound, Antarctica
The late Pliocene, ~3.3–3.0 Ma, is the most recent interval of sustained global warmth in the geologic past. This window is the focus of climate reconstruction efforts by the U.S. Geological Survey’s Pliocene Research, Interpretation, and Synoptic Mapping (PRISM) Data/Model Cooperative, and may provide a useful climate analog for the coming century. Reconstructions of past surface ocean conditi...
متن کاملA Diatom Record of Late Pliocene Cooling from the Ross Sea Continental Shelf, AND-1B, Antarctica
A late Pliocene – early Pleistocene, 2.9–2.0Ma, diatom record from the Antarctic Geological Drilling Program (ANDRILL) MIS drillcore AND-1B is presented. This core, recovered from beneath the Ross Ice Shelf south of Ross Island, comprises multiple diatomaceous-sediment units deposited during interglacial periods with open water over the core site. These represent interglacial phases of orbitall...

متن کاملMiocene-Pliocene-Pleistocene Glacial History of Arena Valley, Quartermain Mountains, Antarctica
An 40Ar/39Ar chronology of in-situ to near insitu volcanic ashfall deposits indicates that the surficial stratigraphy of Arena Valley extends back at least to middleMiocene time. Wet-based glacial ice occupied part of Arena Valley more than 11.3 Ma ago. Thick, northeast-flowing ice subsequently engulfed Arena Valley, again more than 11.3 Ma ago. Only minor glacier expansion occurred during Plio...
