This study investigates changes in the upper water column hydrography at Site 851 of the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean since the late Pliocene, using the oxygen and carbon isotopic composition of three species of planktonic foraminifers, each calcifying at different depths in the photic zone. The upper ocean seasonal hydrography in this region responds to the seasonally changing trade winds and thus is expected to respond to past changes in trade winds. One major change occurs at about 1.5 Ma, when the thermocline adjusts from a deep position to a shallower position. The thermocline remains in a relatively shallow position throughout the record up to recent time, with slight variations occurring synchronously with glacial/interglacial stages. In glacials, SSTs are probably a few degrees cooler and the thermocline is slightly deeper. From our knowledge of seasonal and interannual adjustments of the thermocline in this location, a deeper thermocline might be interpreted as either a decrease in the strength of the Equatorial Undercurrent (EUC) that results from lower mean wind strength or an increase in the Equatorial Countercurrent (ECC), which results from an increase in the strength of the southeasterly trade winds. A major shift from higher to lower carbon isotope values occurred at about 1.9 Ma, marking a transition to reduced planktonic-benthic d13C differences after 1.9 Ma. The carbon isotopic data indicate that changes in the carbon isotopic composition of intermediate upwelling water occurs at higher frequencies than the glacial/interglacial changes in ice volume.

An improved procedure for lithium isotope analysis using Li3PO4 as the ion source has been investigated for application to geological samples. The 7Li/6Li ratio is measured using double rhenium filament thermal ionization mass spectrometry in which isotopic fractionation is minimized at high temperatures. The method produces a stable, high intensity Li+ ion beam that allows measurement of nanogram quantities of lithium. This results in a reduction in sample size of up to 1000 times relative to that required for the established Li2BO2+ method while maintaining a comparable precision of better than 1? (1 sigma). Replicate analyses of the NBS L-SVEC Li2CO3 standard yielded a mean value of 12.1047+/-0.0043 (n=21), which is close to the reported absolute value of 12.02+/-0.03. Intercalibration with a wide range of geological samples shows excellent agreement between the Li3PO4 and Li2BO2+ techniques. Replicate analyses of seawater and a fresh submarine basalt display high precision results that agree with previous measurements. Taking advantage of the high ionization efficiency of the phosphate ion source, we have made the first measurements of the lithium concentration (by isotope dilution) and isotopic composition of calcareous foraminiferal tests and other marine carbonates. Preliminary results indicate that substantial lithium exchange occurs between carbonate sediments and their interstitial waters. In addition, a possible link between lithium paleoceanography and paleoclimate during the last 1000 ky may be derived from planktonic foraminiferal tests. This highly sensitive technique can be applied in the examination of low lithium reservoirs and thereby provide insight into some fundamental aspects of lithium geochemistry.
