Abstract Two cores from the southwestern shelf and slope of Storfjorden, Svalbard, taken at 389 m 1485 water depth have been analyzed for benthic planktic foraminifera, oxygen isotopes, ice-rafted debris. The results show that over last 20,000 yr, Atlantic has continuously present on Svalbard shelf. However, 15,000 to 10,000 14 C yr BP, comprising Heinrich event H1 interval, Bølling–Allerød interstades Younger Dryas stade, it flowed as a subsurface mass below layer polar surface water. In...
A high‐resolution piston core, ENAM93‐21, from a water depth of 1020 m near the Faeroe‐Shetland Channel is investigated for variations in magnetic susceptibility, surface oxygen isotopes, grain size distribution, content ice‐rafted detritus (IRD), and distribution planktonic benthic foraminifera. The covering last 58,000 years, correlated with Greenland ice cores compared paleorecords Norwegian Sea North Atlantic Ocean. All fifteen Dansgaard‐Oeschger climatic cycles recognized time period...
The application of 87Sr/86Sr in prehistoric mobility studies requires accurate strontium reference maps. These are often based from present-day surface waters.

Results from two deep sea cores northeast of Newfoundland at 1251 and 2527 m water depth, respectively, indicate that during the time period 160,000 to 10,000 years BP, ice rafting events in Labrador Sea were accompanied by rapid variations surface circulation. Twelve ice‐rafting occurred, each coinciding with high concentrations detrital carbonate oxygen isotopic depletion both bottom waters. Eleven these can be correlated North Atlantic Heinrich H1–H11.

Abstract The precise reason for the differences and out-of-phase relationship between abrupt Dansgaard-Oeschger warmings in Nordic seas Greenland ice cores gradual south-central Atlantic Antarctic is poorly understood. Termed bipolar seesaw, are apparently linked to perturbations ocean circulation pattern. Here we show that surface intermediate-depth water south of Iceland warmed gradually synchronously with warming out phase over Greenland. hinge line areas showing was close...
Abstract Planktic foraminifers are ubiquitous marine calcifiers sensitive to ocean biogeochemical and physical changes. Their fossil remains have thus been widely used for the reconstruction of past oceanographic climatic Here, we investigated distribution patterns planktic foraminiferal species, their abundance, shell size, preservation state in two sediment cores from northern southern Barents Sea during last three millennia compared them with a living assemblage water column. The study...
A number of short‐lasting warm periods (interstadials) interrupted the otherwise cold climate last glacial period. These events are supposedly linked to inflow Atlantic surface water Nordic seas. However, previous investigations planktonic foraminifera from seas have not been able resolve any significant difference between interstadials and intervening stadials, as faunas continuously dominated by polar species Neogloboquadrina pachyderma s. Here we examine assemblages a high‐resolution...
The Danian-Selandian boundary at Svejstrup is characterized by an abrupt facies change from a pure limestone to terrigeneous marl. top of the Danian limestone intensively burrowed abrasion surface.

Although very similar nearby section Hvalklse, time interval included in hiatus greater than Hvall0se. coccoliths dinoflagellates indicate different ages for Danian.

ABSTRACT The lower Danian bryozoan mounds exposed in the cliff at Karlby are described. Analyses of some sixty samples taken from a single mound reveal that limestone is composed about 30% fragments fine grained matrix. texture and grain‐size distribution show two distinct sedimentary facies can be recognized: (1) northwestern flank basins with fragments, relatively small amount matrix, grain‐supported texture; (2) southeastern summit coarse bryozoans, larger matrix partly mud‐supported...
Brines can have a profound influence on the relative abundance of calcareous and agglutinated foraminiferal faunas.

The purpose study was to reconstruct changes palaeoecology palaeoceanography torfjorden relation past climate changes, identify potential indicator for brine‐affected environments. foraminifera all widespread...
