The glacial cycles of the Pleistocene involve changes in the circulation of the deep ocean in
important ways. This review seeks to establish what were the robust patterns of deep‐sea …

Radiocarbon is an extremely useful carbon cycle tracer and radiometric dating tool. Here,
we review the main principles and challenges involved in the use of radiocarbon in …

Between~ 17,500 and 15,000 years ago, the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation
weakened substantially in response to meltwater discharges from disintegrating Northern …

New radiocarbon and sedimentological results from the Gulf of Alaska document recurrent
millennial-scale episodes of reorganized Pacific Ocean ventilation synchronous with rapid …

Although the Pacific Ocean is a major reservoir of heat and CO2, and thus an important
component of the global climate system, its circulation under different climatic conditions is …

Under modern conditions only North Pacific Intermediate Water is formed in the northwest
Pacific Ocean. This situation might have changed in the past. Recent studies with general …

Benthic and planktonic 14C ages are presented for the last glacial termination from marine
sediment core VM21‐30 from 617 m in the eastern equatorial Pacific. The benthic …

The subarctic North Pacific Ocean holds a large CO2 reservoir that is currently isolated from
the atmosphere by a low-salinity layer. It has recently been hypothesized that the …

The lithology of deglacial sediments from the Bering Sea includes intervals of laminated or
dysaerobic sediments. These intervals are contemporaneous with the occurrence of …

Elevated productivity in the northwest Pacific is suggested as a new possible control driving
past intervals of low-O2 intermediate water along the western continental margin of North …
