Abstract. A growing body of observations has revealed rapid changes in both the total inventory and distribution marine oxygen over latter half 20th century, leading to increased interest extending oxygenation records into past. The use paleo-oxygen proxies potential extend spatial temporal range current records, constrain pre-anthropogenic baselines, provide datasets necessary test climate models under different boundary conditions, ultimately understand how ocean responds beyond...
Abstract. With an extension of > 40 km2 the recently discovered Campeche cold-water coral province located at northeastern rim Bank in southern Gulf Mexico belongs to largest coherent areas so far. The consists numerous 20–40 m-high elongated mounds that are developed intermediate water depths 500 600 m. colonized by a vivid ecosystem covers upper flanks and summits. rich community is dominated framework-building Scleractinia Enallopsammia profunda Lophelia pertusa, while associated...

Abstract. Coastal upwelling systems account for approximately half of global ocean primary production and contribute disproportionately to biologically driven carbon sequestration. Diatoms, silica-precipitating microalgae, constitute the dominant phytoplankton in these productive regions, their abundance assemblage composition sedimentary record is considered one best proxies production. The study diatom (SDA) total organic content (TOC) five most important coastal modern (Iberia–Canary,...

The scientific objectives of METEOR cruise M84/5 focused on the measurement and analysis environmental controls modern and fossil cold-water coral growth along a transect in Bay Biscay. In four working areas we successfully deployed lander systems CTD/Ro’s to document physical hydrochemical characteristics bottom water masses water column general. These are used shed light potential linkages growth distribution. investigations were flanked by plankton tows surface waters. base for all...
&lt;p&gt;The mean cooling of the global ocean during Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) was recently estimated to 2.6&amp;#176;C using noble gases trapped in ice cores (1). The ocean, however, is highly heterogeneous with respect its internal temperature varying both latitude and water depth. While changes deep are small at about 2 - 3 &amp;#176;C (1,2), upper more dynamic. Regional anomalies up 7&amp;#176;C predicted LGM compared modern interior by circulation models (3). Due...
