Abstract High‐resolution sequence analysis of three drill‐cores with well‐constrained optically simulated luminescence ages reveals a stratigraphic evolution the Baeksu tidal flat (south‐west coast Korea) that documents development tide‐dominated estuary infill interacting minimal fluvial processes since marine isotope stage 6. The architecture and its correlation along an upper mudflat‐to‐subtidal transect showcase two different hierarchies sequences small‐scale (fifth‐order) subsequences...
Abstract Kim, D., Yang, E. J., K. H., Shin, C-W., Park, Yoo, S., and Hyun, J-H. 2012. Impact of an anticyclonic eddy on the summer nutrient chlorophyll a distributions in Ulleung Basin, East Sea (Japan Sea). – ICES Journal Marine Science, 69: 23–29.

Abstract We present a new high‐resolution multiproxy data set of Sr‐Nd isotopes, rare earth element, soluble iron, and total organic carbon from International Marine Global Change Study Core MD06‐3047 located in the western Philippine Sea. integrate our with published clay mineralogy, element chemistry, thermocline depth, δ 13 C differences between benthic planktonic foraminifera, order to quantitatively constrain Asian dust input basin. explore relationship Sea high‐latitude Pacific eolian...
Abstract The evolution of the Kuroshio Current (KC) in Okinawa Trough (OT) has long been paleoceanographic interest and focus many investigations because its large impacts on both ocean environment climate East Asia. Here we present a new high‐resolution mercury (Hg) record from OT sediments that provides robust evidence for glacial‐interglacial variabilities KC inflow. Hg levels are anomalously high Holocene deposits, which feature abrupt increase at ~9.6 ka significant drop 4.5–3.2 ka. Our...
Abstract Few in situ measurements are conducted early the productive season Arctic Ocean, making it difficult to accurately assess impact of recent decline sea ice cover on algal fluxes. Since 2017, time‐series sediment traps have been deployed collect sinking particles at two sites Pacific region. Here, we present fluxes obtained East Siberian Sea (ESS) and northern Chukchi (NCS) between August 2017 November 2022. Despite interruptions sampling, reflected large spatial temporal variations...
Deglaciation has accelerated the transport of minerals as well modern and ancient organic matter from land to fjord sediments in Spitsbergen, Svalbard, European Arctic Ocean. Consequently, such may contain significant levels total mercury (THg) bound terrestrial matter. The present study compared THg contents surface three settings Spitsbergen: Hornsund southern which high annual volume loss glacier receives sediment multiple tidewater glaciers, Dicksonfjorden central glacifluvial rivers,...
