Carbonate record of ODP Leg 167 sites

One of the expected scientific results of Ocean Drilling Program Leg 167 was to reconstruct the Neogene history of biogenic calcium carbonate accumulation in the northeastern Pacific along the California margin (Lyle, Koizumi, Richter, et al., 1997). This aims to constrain inorganic carbon burial rates, deep-water hydrography in the North Pacific, and linkages between deep Atlantic and Pacific circulation and carbonate accumulation or dissolution patterns. Data are presented for four sites. Two of them are located in the California bight-East Cortez Basin (Site 1012: 32°16.970?N 118°23.024?W, 1773 m) and San Nicholas Basin (Site 1013: 32°48.040??, 118°53.992?W, 1564 m). The others are the dedicated Hole 1017E at Site 1017 (34°32.099?N, 121°6.430?W, 955 m) and Site 1019 in the Eel River Basin (41¢X40.972?N, 124°55.975?W, 977 m). Reconstruction of paleo-sea-surface temperatures (SST) by determining the alkenone unsaturation index of the extractable organic matter is an independent technique and helps to verify oxygen-isotope-based estimates. Results from the uppermost 600 cm of the dedicated Hole 1017E are expected to reveal the local temperature history of the last 30 k.y.

Horizontal profiles of longwave and shortwave radiation components over sea ice near Barrow, Alaska during the 2011 melt

An integrated instrument package for measuring and understanding the surface radiation budget of sea ice is presented, along with results from its first deployment. The setup simultaneously measures broadband fluxes of upwelling and downwelling terrestrial and solar radiation (four components separately), spectral fluxes of incident and reflected solar radiation, and supporting data such as air temperature and humidity, surface temperature, and location (GPS), in addition to photographing the sky and observed surface during each measurement. The instruments are mounted on a small sled, allowing measurements of the radiation budget to be made at many locations in the study area to see the effect of small-scale surface processes on the large-scale radiation budget. Such observations have many applications, from calibration and validation of remote sensing products to improving our understanding of surface processes that affect atmosphere-snow-ice interactions and drive feedbacks, ultimately leading to the potential to improve climate modelling of ice-covered regions of the ocean. The photographs, spectral data, and other observations allow for improved analysis of the broadband data. An example of this is shown by using the observations made during a partly cloudy day, which show erratic variations due to passing clouds, and creating a careful estimate of what the radiation budget along the observed line would have been under uniform sky conditions, clear or overcast. Other data from the setup's first deployment, in June 2011 on fast ice near Point Barrow, Alaska, are also shown; these illustrate the rapid changes of the radiation budget during a cold period that led to refreezing and new snow well into the melt season.

Planktonic foraminiferal flux in the Subantarctic

Sediment trap moorings deployed during 1997 and 1998 in the Subantarctic to Polar Frontal regions of the Southern Ocean reveal distinct seasonality in foraminiferal flux. Foraminiferal assemblages vary between each site, yet major species exhibit very similar patterns of seasonal succession which can be associated with changes in mixed layer depth. Enhanced foraminiferal productivity is also associated with periods of high biogenic silica and particulate organic carbon flux. On a broader scale, foraminiferal assemblages are strongly delineated by temperature. Temperature estimates derived from the assemblages using the modern analog technique (MAT) are mostly within 2.5°C of the satellite advanced very high resolution radiometer temperatures observed during the deployment period. This indicates that core top sediments included in the MAT database do reflect modern observed conditions at the sea surface, providing a robust technique for estimating past temperature change from foraminiferal assemblages in Southern Ocean environments.

Corg, CaCO3, bulk densities, accumulation rates and ages of ODP Leg 167 sites and three piston cores, California margin

Sediments from five Leg 167 drill sites and three piston cores were analyzed for Corg and CaCO3. Oxygen isotope stratigraphy on benthic foraminifers was used to assign age models to these sedimentary records. We find that the northern and central California margin is characterized by k.y.-scale events that can be found in both the CaCO3 and Corg time series. We show that the CaCO3 events are caused by changes in CaCO3 production by plankton, not by dissolution. We also show that these CaCO3 events occur in marine isotope Stages (MIS) 2, 3, and 4 during Dansgaard/Oeschger interstadials. They occur most strongly, however, on the MIS 5/4 glaciation and MIS 2/1 deglaciation. We believe that the link between the northeastern Pacific Ocean and North Atlantic is primarily transmitted by the atmosphere, not the ocean. Highest CaCO3 production and burial occurs when the surface ocean is somewhat cooler than the modern ocean, and the surface mixed layer is somewhat more stable.

La percepción en relación con el agua : modos de construcción de la subjetividad en la narrativa de Wernicke

La narrativa de Enrique Wernicke (1915-1968) plasmada en las novelas La ribera (1955) y El agua (1968) muestra una notable construcción de los modos de representación de la relación entre memoria, subjetividad y experiencia que encarnan sus protagonistas. En dichos textos, la conciencia de los personajes principales se ve modificada por la alteración de su espacio, mediante la incidencia de fenómenos de la naturaleza tales como la creciente y la inundación. En ese sentido, los cambios en el vínculo y la aprehensión del ambiente que rodean al sujeto generan modificaciones profundas en la construcción de la subjetividad que resignifican no solo las circunstancias concomitantes al momento de la enunciación narrativa, sino también la revisión del pasado referido de las subjetividades que allí se construyen. Exponente destacado del realismo argentino, Wernicke se vale del agua, en tanto motivo con valores simbólicos diversos, plausible de ser inscripto en una serie de la literatura argentina que configura imaginarios del espacio de nuestro país, con peso propio en la construcción de nuestra identidad.
