Resilient biotic response to long-term climate change in the Adriatic Sea

Daniele Scarponi et al.

Summary: Preserving adaptive capacities of coastal ecosystems requires understanding the long-term dynamics and the role of climate-driven habitat filtering. Human disturbances are currently shifting coastal regions into novel system states far outside the range of natural variability.

The Sr/Ba ratio response to salinity in clastic sediments of the Yangtze River Delta

Aihua Wang et al.

Summary: The Sr/Ba ratio is a geochemical indicator used to distinguish between terrestrial and marine sedimentary environments, but its usability is not widely acknowledged due to inconsistent conclusions drawn from other sedimentary environment indicators. Selective extraction of sedimentogenic Sr and Ba is the most effective means of using the Sr/Ba ratio to discriminate between marine and terrestrial sedimentary environments in terrigenous clastic sediments.

Inter-comparison of optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ages between different fractions of Holocene deposits from the Yangtze delta and its environmental implications

Xiaomei Nian et al.

Summary: In fluvial and deltaic environments, different grain-size fractions experience varying degrees of bleaching of OSL signals due to variations in hydrodynamics and depositional processes. Comparison of OSL results from multiple grain-size fractions is essential for ensuring reliable OSL ages. The study in the Yangtze delta revealed that fine-silt quartz provides reliable ages for the period of 9-2 ka, but there was significant overestimation of ages for fine silt during 0.4-0.6 ka due to partial bleaching. This highlights the complexity of OSL dating in delta environments and the importance of understanding sediment transport processes for accurate dating.

A new global ice sheet reconstruction for the past 80000 years

Evan J. Gowan et al.

Summary: The uncertainty of past global ice sheet evolution, especially the issue of missing ice volume during the Last Glacial Maximum, has been a challenge. Researchers have developed a global ice sheet reconstruction for the past 80,000 years, resolving the missing ice problem during the Last Glacial Maximum. However, discrepancies with proxy-based sea level reconstructions before the Last Glacial Maximum highlight the complexity of the relationship between marine delta O-18 and sea level changes.

Fate of terrigenous organic carbon in muddy clinothems on continental shelves revealed by stratal geometries: Insight from the Adriatic sedimentary archive

Claudio Pellegrini et al.

Summary: The study investigates the burial of terrigenous organic carbon (OCTerr) during the Little Ice Age along the western Adriatic shelf, revealing significant lateral variability in the deposition process. The analysis shows contrasting scenarios for OCTerr deposition in different sectors of the shelf, highlighting the influence of sediment transport and environmental conditions on organic carbon burial.

Post-LGM multi-proxy sedimentary record of bottom-current variability and downslope sedimentary processes in a contourite drift of the Gela Basin (Strait of Sicily)

Tugdual Gauchery et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the deposition processes in the Gela Basin in the Strait of Sicily, investigating the impacts of along-slope currents and downslope sediment-gravity flows. Detailed multi-proxy analysis helped unravel the sedimentary imprints of contourites and downslope gravity-driven processes, shedding light on the sediment accumulations in the basin.

Lu Dai et al.

Summary: Analysis of pollen data collected from four coastal cores in Fujian province reveals new evidence of vegetation, sea level, and climate changes since late marine isotope stage. The reconstructed optimum climate during early MIS3 period showed strong correlation with summer monsoon signal.
