Zusammenfassung |
We reconstructed the ventilation record of deep water at 2100 m depth in the
mid-latitude western North Pacific over the past 25 kyr from radiocarbon
measurements of coexisting planktic and benthic foraminiferal shells in
sediment with a high sedimentation rate. The 14C data on fragile and
robust planktic foraminiferal shells were concordant with each other,
ensuring high quality of the reconstructed ventilation record. The
radiocarbon activity changes were consistent with the atmospheric record,
suggesting that no massive mixing of old carbon from the abyssal reservoir
occurred throughout the glacial to deglacial periods. |
