CALCRETES FROM A LATE QUATERNARY INTERFLUVE IN THE GANGA PLAINS, INDIA: CARBONATE TYPES AND ISOTOPIC SYSTEMS IN A MONSOONAL SETTING

Sinha R.; Tandon S.K.; Ghazanfari P.; Sanyal P.; Gibling M.R.; Stuben D.; Berner Z. (2006)

Calcretes are abundant in Late Quaternary channel and floodplain strata of the southern Ganga plains. In a key section at Kalpi, pedogenic carbonates (nodules, rhizoconcretions, and powdery carbonate) are present within ...
COMPARISON OF TERRESTRIAL AND MARINE RECORDS OF CHANGING CLIMATE OF THE LAST 500,000 YEARS

Tzedakis P.C.; Andrieu V.; de Beaulieu J.L.; Crowhurst S.; Follieri M.; Hooghiemstra H.; Magri D.; Reille M.; Sadori L.; Shackleton N.J.; Wijmstra T.A. (1997)

A broad correspondence between long pollen sequences and the deep-sea oxygen isotope record has been noted for some time, but there has been little effort to explore just how similar the two types of evidence are in terms ...
CONTRIBUTIONS OF SLAB FLUID, MANTLE WEDGE AND CRUST TO THE ORIGIN OF QUATERNARY LAVAS IN THE NE JAPAN ARC

Kimura J.I.; Yoshida T. (2006)

Quaternary lavas from the NE Japan arc show geochemical evidence of mixing between mantle-derived basalts and crustal melts at the magmatic front, whereas significant crustal signals are not detected in the rear-arc lavas. ...
GENERATION AND ACCUMULATION OF QUATERNARY SHALLOW GAS IN EASTERN QAIDAM BASIN, NW CHINA

Su A.; Zhao W.; Zhang S.; Dang Y.; Zhou R.; Guan Z.; Xu Z.; Zhang D.; Tan Y.; Li M.; Pang X.; Chen J.; Li S. (2006)

This study presents an overview on the geological setting and geochemical characteristics of Pleistocene shallow gas accumulations in eastern Qaidam Basin, NW China. Five largest gas accumulations discovered in this region ...
LATE QUATERNARY GLACIAL HISTORY IN THE ENCIERRO VALLEY, NORTHERN CHILE (29°S), DEDUCED FROM 10BE SURFACE EXPOSURE DATING

Zech R.; Kull C.; Veit H. (2006)

The Late Pleistocene glacial and climate history in the dry Central Andes is not well known so far, mainly because of the lack of suitable material for radiocarbon dating. In order to establish a glacial chronology, we ...
LATE TERTIARY-QUATERNARY TECTONICS OF THE SOUTHERN APENNINES (ITALY): NEW EVIDENCES FROM THE TYRRHENIAN SLOPE

Caiazzo C.; Ascione A.; Cinque A. (2006)

This paper summarises the results of combined structural and geomorphological investigations we carried out in two key areas, in order to obtain new data on the structure and evolution of the Tyrrhenian slope of the southern ...
NEW INSIGHTS ON THE LOESS/PALEOSOL QUATERNARY STRATIGRAPHY FROM KEY SECTIONS IN THE U.S. MIDWEST

Rutter N.W.; Little E.C.; Velichko A.A.; Morozova T.D.; Nechaev V.P.; Dlussky K.G.; Evans M.E. (2006)

Three key Quaternary loess/paleosol sections were examined in the Missouri Valley (Iowa), Eustis Ash Pit (Nebraska), and in the Wittsburg Quarry (Arkansas) to gain insights into the sedimentation, environment and climate ...
PALAEOCLIMATIC RECORDS FROM STABLE ISOTOPES IN RIVERINE TUFAS: SYNTHESIS AND REVIEW

Andrews J.E. (2006)

It has been known for some time that viable palaeoclimatic information should be recorded in groundwater-fed riverine tufas, particularly barrage, paludal or spring-line deposits. Stable isotope variation in active ...
TEMPORAL VARIATIONS OF THE TRACE FOSSIL ZOOPHYCOS IN A 425 KA LONG SEDIMENT RECORD FROM THE SOUTH CHINA SEA: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE ETHOLOGY OF THE ZOOPHYCOS PRODUCER

Lowemark L.; Lin H.L.; Sarnthein M. (2006)

A 425 ka long record from piston core GIK17925-3 taken in the northeastern South China Sea was used to study the environmental conditions controlling the distribution of the Zoophycos trace fossil. The 12 m long core offers ...
THE 100-KYR ICE-AGE CYCLE: INTERNAL OSCILLATION OR INCLINATIONAL FORCING?

Berger W.H. (1999)

The ice-age hypothesis of Muller and MacDonald (1995, 1997a, 1997b) has two parts: (a) The 100-kyr cycle does not owe its existence to Milankovitch forcing; and (b) variations in inclination of Earth's orbit (i.e., the ...
THE EFFECT OF PALEO-OCEANOGRAPHIC CHANGES ON THE SEDIMENTARY RECORDING OF HYDROTHERMAL ACTIVITY IN THE RED SEA DURING THE LAST 30,000 YEARS

Coulibaly A.S.; Anschutz P.; Blanc G.; Malaize B.; Pujol C.; Fontanier C. (2006)

The restricted exchange of water with the Indian Ocean makes the Red Sea extremely sensitive to global oceanographic changes, such as sea-level variations linked with Quaternary climate change. The 120 m global sea level ...
