Anthropogenic modification of the oceans
T Tyrrell - … Transactions of the Royal Society A …, 2011 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Human activities are altering the ocean in many different ways. The surface ocean is
warming and, as a result, it is becoming more stratified and sea level is rising. There is no …

Timing and pacing of Indonesian Throughflow restriction and its connection to Late Pliocene climate shifts
The Pliocene was characterized by a gradual shift of global climate toward cooler and drier
conditions. This shift fundamentally reorganized Earth's climate from the Miocene state …

Environmental controls on coccolithophore calcification
JA Raven, K Crawfurd - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2012 - int-res.com
Coccolithophores are major contributors to global marine planktonic calcification, and in
nature coccolithophores are invariably calcified through almost all of their life cycle. The …

Optical measurements to determine the thickness of calcite crystals and the mass of thin carbonate particles such as coccoliths
L Beaufort, N Barbarin, Y Gally - Nature protocols, 2014 - nature.com
We describe a procedure for measuring the thickness and mass of calcite particles that
works for most calcite particles< 4.5-μm thick. The calcite particles are observed in cross …

Perturbing phytoplankton: response and isotopic fractionation with changing carbonate chemistry in two coccolithophore species
All species of coccolithophore appear to respond to perturbations of carbonate chemistry in
a different way. Here, we show that the degree of malformation, growth rate and stable …

Resolving varve and radiocarbon chronology differences during the last 2000 years in the Santa Barbara Basin sedimentary record, California
Abstract Santa Barbara Basin (SBB) is well known for producing high quality paleoclimate
reconstructions, but the validity of correlations between the basin and other regions rests …

Covariation of metabolic rates and cell size in coccolithophores
G Aloisi - Biogeosciences, 2015 - bg.copernicus.org
Coccolithophores are sensitive recorders of environmental change. The size of their
coccosphere varies in the ocean along gradients of environmental conditions and provides …

Morphology of Emiliania huxleyi coccoliths on the northwestern European shelf – is there an influence of carbonate chemistry?
JR Young, AJ Poulton, T Tyrrell - Biogeosciences, 2014 - bg.copernicus.org
Within the context of the UK Ocean Acidification project, Emiliania huxleyi (type A) coccolith
morphology was examined from samples collected during cruise D366. In particular, a …

High-frequency climate fluctuations over the last deglaciation in the Alboran Sea, Western Mediterranean: Evidence from calcareous plankton assemblages
A high resolution study, with a centennial scale resolution, has been performed on the
calcareous plankton assemblage (coccolithophores and planktonic foraminifera) at Ocean …

Ocean acidification: knowns, unknowns, and perspectives
Although the changes in the chemistry of seawater driven by the uptake of CO 2 by the
oceans have been known for decades, research addressing the effects of elevated CO 2 on …
