Analisi della correlazione tra i livelli paleo-freatici del sistema carsico dei Piani Eterni e i Terrazzi dell'adiacente Valle del Mis (Parco nazionale delle Dolomiti bellunesi)

Il sistema carsico dei Piani Eterni e la Valle del Mis si trovano in provincia di Belluno, all'interno del parco Nazionale delle Dolomiti Bellunesi. Questi due sistemi geologici sono attualmente in fase di studio e la presente tesi, ha come scopo la correlazione tra i livelli paleo-freatici di grotta dei Piani Eterni e le superfici a bassa pendenza (terrazzi glaciali, kame e superfici di spianamento) dell'adiacente Val del Mis. L'elaborato è stato sviluppato prevalentemente su ArcMap (Gis) e su Excel, mentre su Datagraph sono stati ottenuti i grafici che mostrano i confronti altimetrici e quantitativi tra condotte e superfici. I risultati ottenuti dalla fase di analisi della tesi, mostrano che le correlazioni sono evidenti e grazie alle datazione U-Th di alcuni speleotemi del sistema carsico, sono state avanzate sia una ipotetica ricostruzione dell'antico reticolo di drenaggio della Valle del Mis, sia la causa per la quale questo drenaggio, attualmente, si presenti in maniera estremamente diversa da quello passato.

Palaeoceanographic changes in the North Atlantic during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MIS 31-19) as inferred from planktonic foraminiferal and calcium carbonate records

Marine sediments from the Integrated Ocean Drilling Project (IODP) Site U1314 (56.36°N, 27.88°W), in the subpolar North Atlantic, were studied for their planktonic foraminifera, calcium carbonate content, and Neogloboqudrina pachyderma sinistral (sin.) δ13C records in order to reconstruct surface and intermediate conditions in this region during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT). Variations in the palaeoceanography and regional dynamics of the Arctic Front were estimated by comparing CaCO3 content, planktonic foraminiferal species abundances, carbon isotopes and ice-rafted debris (IRD) data from Site U1314 with published data from other North Atlantic sites. Site U1314 exhibited high abundances of the polar planktonic foraminifera N. pachyderma sin. and low CaCO3 content until Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 26, indicating a relatively southeastward position of the Arctic Front (AF) and penetration of colder and low-salinity surface arctic water-masses. Changing conditions after MIS 25, with oscillations in the position of the AF, caused an increase in the northward export of the warmer North Atlantic Current (NAC), indicated by greater abundances of non-polar planktonic foraminifera and higher CaCO3. The N. pachyderma sin. δ13C data indicate good ventilation of the upper part of the intermediate water layer in the eastern North Atlantic during both glacial and interglacial stages, except during Terminations 24/23, 22/21 and 20/1. In addition, for N. pachyderma (sin.) we distinguished two morphotypes: non-encrusted and heavily encrusted test. Results indicate that increases in the encrusted morphotype and lower planktonic foraminiferal diversity are related to the intensification of glacial conditions (lower sea-surface temperatures, sea-ice formation) during MIS 22 and 20.

Detailed insight into Arctic climatic variability during MIS 11c at Lake El'gygytgyn, NE Russia

Here we present a detailed multi-proxy record of the climate and environmental evolution at Lake El'gygytgyn, Far East Russian Arctic during the period 430–395 ka covering the marine isotope stage (MIS) 12/11 transition and the thermal maximum of super interglacial MIS 11c. The MIS 12/11 transition at Lake El'gygytgyn is characterized by initial warming followed by a cold reversal implying similarities to the last deglaciation. The thermal maximum of MIS 11c is characterized by full and remarkably stable interglacial conditions with mean temperatures of the warmest month (MTWM) ranging between ca. 10–15 °C; annual precipitation (PANN) ranging between ca. 300–600 mm; strong in-lake productivity coinciding with dark coniferous forests in the catchment; annual disintegration of the lake ice cover; and full mixis of the water column. Such conditions persisted, according to our age model, for ca. 27 ± 8 kyr between ca. 425–398 ka. The Lake El'gygytgyn record closely resembles the climate pattern recorded in Lake Baikal (SE Siberia) sediments and Antarctic ice cores, implying interhemispheric climate connectivity during MIS 11c.
