156 ka以来西菲律宾海陆坡沉积物的定量源-汇过程及其碳循环效应

通过对西菲律宾海大陆坡上MD06-3052岩芯沉积物中有机质稳定碳同位素组成(δ¹³C_org)的分析,结合该孔有机碳含量、总氮含量、沉积物不同组分通量以及陆源区风化剥蚀指标等数据,探讨了156 ka以来冰期-间冰期旋回中研究区有机质的定量源-汇过程、主控因素及其碳循环效应。结果表明：δ¹³C_org值在-27.4‰～-18.6‰波动,平均值为-22.2‰,且呈现出冰期相对偏负而间冰期相对偏正的变化特征,有机质的具体来源包括海洋生物和陆地C3植物,在冰期和间冰期阶段分别以陆源(平均约为67%)和海源(平均约为83%)有机质的贡献为主。陆源有机碳含量和通量的变化趋势与总有机碳相应指标非常一致,均具有冰期高而间冰期低的特征,表明研究区冰期阶段有机碳通量增加的最主要原因是海平面下降所引起的大陆架出露及其上松散硅酸盐沉积物的强物理剥蚀作用。再结合热带西太平洋其他岩芯的相似记录,认为当时热带广泛出露大陆架上的强硅酸盐风化剥蚀作用及与其相伴随的高海底有机碳埋藏通量在大气CO₂浓度降低和全球变冷...     

南海西沙海槽83PC柱状沉积物组成特征及其古环境意义

为了解南海北部末次间冰期以来的沉积环境演化,分析了西沙海槽83PC柱状沉积物的浮游有孔虫氧碳同位素、碳酸钙、有机碳和粒度组成。浮游有孔虫的δ18O值具有冰期-间冰期旋回特征,记录了海平面的升降和古气候的变化,而海平面变化控制了沉积物的碳酸钙和有机碳含量。冰期,海平面下降,陆源物质输入增多,带来了大量的碎屑物质和陆源有机质,沉积物具有低碳酸钙含量和高有机碳含量;间冰期,海平面上升,陆源物质输入减少,碎屑物质的稀释作用减弱,沉积物具有高碳酸钙含量和低有机碳含量。南海北部83PC柱状沉积物记录了末次间冰期以来的多次海平面升降旋回,还记录了气候变冷事件以及低碳酸钙沉积事件,其中,150、510、660和740 cm处的低碳酸钙含量和相对重δ18O值记录了全球性气候变冷事件,而冰后期的低碳酸钙沉积事件,则主要反映了季风降雨的增强,出现了洪水高发期,陆源碎屑物质对碳酸钙沉积的稀释作用明显增强。     

南海北部末次冰盛期晚期以来冰融水与气候事件记录:长链脂肪醇陆源输入指示

对南海北部陆坡Site4B站位末次冰盛期晚期至全新世(30~120cm)长链脂肪醇分布及碳同位素组成进行讨论,结果表明,长链脂肪醇碳优势指数(CPI,10.49~24.56)、平均碳链长(ACL,28.91~29.99)以及平均碳同位素组成(–28.85±0.97‰~–32.92±1.38‰)均反映了陆源C3植物来源,代表了沉积物中陆源输入。Site4B站位末次冰盛期末至晚更新世末(65~102cm,19.343~11.636ka BP)普遍较低的陆源输入均响应了大规模的冰融水事件19ka-MWP、MWP-1A、MWP-1B(melt water pulse,MWP)和暖气候事件(B/A事件),不具冰期/间冰期旋回变化特征。在末次冰盛期晚期(102~120cm)和全新世(30~60cm,10.490~约7.104 ka BP)陆源输入的旋回变化均反映了加强/减弱的冬季风/夏季风旋回变化,其中在末次冰盛期晚期记录一次冬季风最强事件,在早全新世至9.940ka BP记录一次夏季风最强事件。通过Site4B站位末次冰盛期末至晚更新世末(19.343~约11.636 ka BP)千年尺度陆源输入分布特征和全球冰期/间冰期旋回气候变化的对比,发现不具明确的区域对比性,可能受到低纬地区局地环境的作用所致。     

南海东北部深海盆末次冰盛期以来陆源碎屑粒度特征及影响因素*

南海东北部深海盆底流演变受多种因素控制, 但目前对末次冰盛期以来底流的敏感指标、演变过程及其控制因素还缺乏深入认识。本文选取南海东北部深水区16ZBS11岩心开展陆源碎屑粒度测试和年龄测定, 通过粒级-标准偏差法提取环境敏感因子, 并计算底流强度及搬运能力。研究结果表明, 研究区陆源碎屑主要由粉砂和粘土组成, 砂组分仅在部分层位出现。南海东北部深海沉积环境经历了3个演化阶段, 第Ⅰ阶段为22.39~16.02ka BP, 第Ⅱ阶段为16.02~9.58ka BP, 第Ⅲ阶段为9.58ka BP至今, 各阶段粘土和粉砂组分均呈反相演变过程。海平面变化是深海沉积和海洋过程的重要影响因素, 末次冰盛期以来南海东北部深海盆底流强度和搬运能力逐渐减弱并呈同步变化, 16ka BP、11.5ka BP后南海分别与印度洋、台湾海峡连通, 影响了南海北部的海洋过程。特别是9.58ka BP以来南海北部海洋混合方式和强度的改变, 深刻影响着深海陆源碎屑的输运及沉积演化。本文研究结果为深入认识南海北部底流活动演变和南海深海过程提供了新证据。     

末次盛冰期以来南海北部神狐海域沉积有机质的组成特征及其古气候/环境意义

通过对两根沉积柱GHE27L和GHE24L的总有机碳（TOC）、总氮（TN）、C/N比值及稳定碳同位素（δ13C_org）的分析,本文探讨了21.1 ka BP以来南海北部陆坡神狐海域沉积有机质的组成特征及可能的古气候/环境信息。沉积柱GHE27L的TOC含量、TN含量、C/N比值及δ13C_org值分别为0.53%~1.81%,0.07%~0.18%,8.2~16.0和-23.6‰~-20.3‰。沉积柱GHE24L各参数则分布为0.45%~1.65%,0.09%~0.24%,5.3~12.2和-22.6‰~-20.4‰。沉积柱总体有机质的剖面变化显示,末次盛冰期以来南海北部沉积有机质具有海洋和陆地混合来源,但以海洋有机质来源为主。冰期陆源有机质对总有机质的相对贡献比全新世高。末次盛冰期南海北部气候相对干旱,C₄植被发育。全新世夏季风增强、降雨增多。自2.0 ka BP以来,人类活动对南海北部海洋初级生产力产生一定的影响。     

末次盛冰期末期以来南海北部陆坡的陆源物质输入及其控制因素

通过对南海北部陆坡KNG5孔沉积物粒度、粘土矿物和14C年龄的综合分析, 探讨了南海北部陆坡的沉积物来源及其控制因素。物源分析表明, KNG5孔17.5-12.5ka BP的沉积物主要来源于珠江, 12.5ka BP 时粘土矿物组合突然发生改变, 并且自12.5ka BP以后, 高岭石含量总体稳定, 说明12.5ka BP时海平面已上升到相当的高度, 并且可能当时南海的现代环流系统已开始形成, 西行的广东沿岸流导致向外扩散的珠江物质减少, 由于受北太平洋深层水(NPDW)和黑潮(KC)南海分支的作用, 台湾成为此时沉积物的主要贡献者。KNG5孔17.5-11ka BP时期的粘土矿物和粒度变化主要受控于海平面和洋流系统的变化。全新世早期(11.0-8ka BP)平均粒径达到最细和1-2.2m 粒级含量达到最高值可能是强盛的夏季风作用的结果。全新世中晚期(8—0ka BP) 1-2.2?m组分含量的减少是8ka BP以来东亚夏季风减弱的具体体现, 1-2.2m 粒级含量指示的东亚夏季风变化能和北半球其它季风指标能很好地对应起来, 说明这次季风减弱是北半球各个季风系统的共同现象。     

南海北部ZHS-176孔古海洋学记录:氧同位素和有机碳

对南海北部陆坡ZHS-176孔进行浮游有孔虫氧同位素和有机碳的研究,重建了末次冰期以来的古气候演化历史。ZHS-176孔浮游有孔虫氧同位素分析揭示了末次冰期期间的气候波动,如末次盛冰期、Heinrich事件1、Blling-Allerd暖期与新仙女木事件在南海北部陆坡均有响应。同时,在全新世阶段存在3个强降水期和3个弱降水期。ZHS-176孔有机碳以生物成因为主,随着夏季风的增强,陆源物质含量增加,但在3kaBP以后由于华南地区夏季风减弱而导致陆源输入减少。     

南沙南部近30ka来的古海洋学记录

南海南部17962柱状样(7°11′N、112°5′E,柱长8 m,水深1 968 m)中近30 ka来的沉积物堆积速率计算结果显示,该孔冰期平均堆积速率为全新世的3倍多.其变化与冰期时海平面下降、地表径流所携陆源物质增多、全新世时海平面的回升以及陆源物质的提前卸载有关.浮游有孔虫氧同位素测定结果表明,该孔的浮游有孔虫的氧同位素冰期/全新世差值高于南海的平均值,更大于开放性大洋赤道西太平洋低纬度区的平均值.CaCO3变化则受陆源物质的"稀释作用"控制,而溶解作用对其影响并不太显著.     

东海表层沉积物正构烷烃特征及其对陆源有机碳运移分布的指示

东海埋藏了通过长江、黄河以及台湾河流进入的巨量陆源有机碳,是重要的有机碳碳“汇”。识别东海沉积物中陆源有机碳的分布特征和搬运过程,是东海碳通量研究不可或缺的内容。目前关于陆源有机碳在东海沉积物中分布的研究区域主要集中在河口、内陆架以及水深<120 m的中、外陆架地区;针对东海外陆架和冲绳海槽陆坡的研究较少,仅少量研究对东海陆架与冲绳海槽南部沉积物的陆源有机碳特征进行了对比分析,对陆源有机碳的“源-汇”过程、分布特征、沉积动力机制等诸多问题尚缺乏系统性的认识。通过对东海外陆架-陆坡-冲绳海槽80个表层沉积物的长链正构烷烃含量及组成特征进行分析,并结合粒度、总有机碳（TOC）及稳定碳同位素（δ13C）指标,讨论了研究区沉积物中陆源有机碳的含量及运移分布。结果显示,δ13C和（ΣC27+C29+C31 n-alkane）/TOC指示的陆源有机碳相对含量在研究区变化范围很大,从外陆架到海槽,有先降低后增高的变化趋势,陆源有机碳在陆坡以及海槽的一些特定区域选择性的大量沉积。东海内陆架的陆源有机碳在横穿东海陆架后,可以在陆坡处通过搬运-沉积-再悬浮-再搬运的方式运移至冲绳海槽沉积。长链正构烷碳优势指数（CPI）的结果表明,来自东海内陆架的陆源有机碳主要在冲绳海槽28.5°—30°N范围内沉积,28.5°N以南的陆源有机质主要受到台湾物质的影响,而30°N以北沉积物中的陆源有机质主要是来源于黄河和日本岛。     

末次盛冰期以来南海西北陆坡沉积物来源及其常微量元素对古气候变化的响应

基于有孔虫AMS~(14)C测年的年代框架,通过对南海西北陆坡ZK2岩芯沉积物粒度、常微量和稀土元素的分析,探讨了南海西北陆坡末次盛冰期以来的沉积物来源及其对古气候的响应。研究结果显示,ZK2孔沉积物可划分为2个沉积单元:Ⅰ层(0～11.6 ka BP)为全新世沉积,Ⅱ层(11.6～28 ka BP)为末次冰期沉积。通过对其物源进行判别,可得南海西北陆坡的沉积物元素主要为陆源元素组合,且以长英质物源为主,主要来自于海南岛和珠江,红河和湄公河对其贡献相对较少。根据其典型常微量元素比值同其它古气候参数的对比,发现从末次盛冰期到末次冰消期气候逐渐变得温暖,源区的化学风化作用不断增强,到全新世时气候呈现由冷干变为暖湿,其在7.3ka BP达到顶峰,然后又变为冷干的状态。东亚夏季风的强度变化同30°N夏季日照辐射量相一致,说明其主要受北半球夏季太阳辐射的驱动。

早全新世白令海北部陆坡沉积环境快速变化

理解增暖背景下海洋环境的演化过程是海洋学和气候学一项重要的研究内容。在地质时期,地球经历了多次增暖时段（包括早全新世）,这为认识海洋环境演化过程提供了重要参考。早全新世全球气候经历了快速增暖,并伴随着冰原融化和海平面快速上升,对包括白令海在内的高纬边缘海的沉积过程和海洋环境产生显著影响。白令海发育宽阔的大陆架,毗邻北美大陆,接受来自育空河、阿纳德尔河和库斯科维姆河物质的供给。目前我们对白令海如何响应早全新世气候的认识还存在明显不足。本研究对位于白令海北部陆坡LV63-19-3岩心沉积物中陆源碎屑组份进行了高分辨率调查,结合沉积年龄模型,研究了早中全新世（距今11.7～5.5 ka）白令海北部陆坡陆源沉积演化过程。研究结果显示,在距今11.5～11 ka,白令海北部陆坡沉积速率高达392.9 cm/ka,在距今约9.7 ka以后降至17.2 cm/ka。在距今11～10.7 ka,发现一层厚约40 cm的暗色纹层状沉积层。在高沉积速率时段,沉积物平均粒径较细,距今9 ka以来平均粒径逐渐增大。主微量元素分析结果表明,陆源碎屑沉积物母岩性质以长英质沉积物为主,并存在少量火山碎屑源贡献。白令海北部陆坡高沉积速率事件对应于冰原融水脉冲（MWP）-1B事件（距今11.4～11.1 ka）,并导致白令海陆坡硅质生产力勃发。在距今11～10.7 ka研究区春夏季海冰覆盖增加抑制表层水体氧供给,夏、秋季持续冰川融水和高表层生产力进一步加剧了水体层化和海洋内部消耗,共同促进了纹层状沉积层的形成。距今9 ka以来白令海季节性海冰活动增强,但是陆源碎屑物质质量累积速率则逐渐减小,表明随着海平面上升,供给到研究区的陆源物质减少。我们认为早全新世白令海北部陆坡沉积环境快速变化是海平面、冰融水脉冲事件和季节性海冰活动共同作用的结果,实际上受高纬日射量、北美大陆冰原融化和全球气候变化控制。     

Late Quaternary siliciclastic/carbonate sedimentation model for the Capricorn Channel,southern Great Barrier Reef province,Australia

A model is presented for hemipelagic siliciclastic and carbonate sedimentation during the last glacial–interglacial cycle in the Capricorn Channel, southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Stable isotope ratios, grainsize, carbonate content and mineralogy were analysed for seven cores in a depth transect from 166 to 2892 m below sea level (mbsl). Results show variations in the flux of terrigenous, neritic and pelagic sediments to the continental slope over the last sea level cycle.During the glacial lowstand terrigenous sediment influenced all the cores down to 2000 mbsl. The percentages of quartz and feldspar in the cores decreased with water depth, while the percentage of clay increased. X-ray diffraction analysis of the glacial lowstand clay mineralogy suggests that the siliciclastic sediment was primarily sourced from the Fitzroy River, which debouched directly into the northwest sector of the Capricorn Channel at this time. The cores also show a decrease in pelagic calcite and an increase in aragonite and high magnesium calcite (HMC) during the glacial. The influx of HMC and aragonite is most likely from reworking of coral reefs exposed on the continental shelf during the glacial, and also from HMC ooids precipitated at the head of the Capricorn Channel at this time. Mass accumulation rates (MARs) are high (13.5 g cm^? 3 kyr^? 1) during the glacial and peak at ~ 20 g cm^? 3 kyr^? 1 in the early transgression (16–14 ka BP). MARs then decline with further sea level rise as the Fitzroy River mouth retreats from the edge of the continental shelf after 13.5 ka BP. MARs remain low (4 cm^? 3 kyr^? 1) throughout the Holocene highstand.Data for the Holocene highstand indicate there is a reduction in siliciclastic influx to the Capricorn Channel with little quartz and feldspar below 350 mbsl. However, fine-grained fluvial sediments, presumably from the Fitzroy River, were still accumulating on the mid slope down to 2000 mbsl. The proportion of pelagic calcite in the core tops increases with water depth, while HMC decreases, and is present only in trace amounts in cores below 1500 mbsl. The difference in the percentage of HMC in the deeper cores between the glacial and Holocene may reflect differences in supply or deepening of the HMC lysocline during the glacial.Sediment accumulation rates also vary between cores in the Capricorn Channel and do not show the expected exponential decrease with depth. This may be due to intermediate or deep water currents reworking the sediments. It is also possible that present bathymetry data are too sparse to detect the potential role that submarine channels may play in the distribution and accumulation of sediments.Comparison of the Capricorn Channel MARs with those for other mixed carbonate/siliciclastic provinces from the northeast margin of Australia indicates that peak MARs in the early transgression in the Capricorn Channel precede those from the central GBR and south of Fraser Island. The difference in the timing of the carbonate and siliciclastic MAR peaks along the northeast margin is primarily related to differences in the physiography and climate of the provinces. The only common trend in the MARs from the northeast margin of Australia is the near synchronicity of the carbonate and siliciclastic MAR peaks in individual sediment cores, which supports a coeval sedimentation model.     

Burial of organic carbon in Holocene sediments of the Zhujiang (Pearl River) and Changjiang (Yangtze River) estuaries

The East Asian marginal seas are important sinks of terrigenous materials transported by large rivers. In this study two cores from the Changjiang (Yangtze River) and Zhujiang (Pearl River) estuaries and one core from the inner shelf off of Hong Kong were investigated to examine the burial of organic matter during the postglacial period and its possible links with paleoenvironmental changes. Based on a simple two end-member mixing model, the terrestrial organic matter supplied primarily from the Zhujiang and Changjiang dominates the estuarine areas while marine organic matter contributes more to the inner-mid shelf. The competing contributions of terrestrial and marine organic matter are responsible for the downcore variations of organic elemental compositions. The overall decreasing shifts of total organic carbon concentrations and total organic carbon to total nitrogen ratios in the Zhujiang estuarine sediments since 6.5 kaBP seems to support the notion that depth profiles of organic matter compositions deposited in the Zhujiang Estuary can aid in the reconstruction of monsoon history in the Holocene. Nevertheless, organic matter compositions in the Changjiang Estuary and inner shelf off of southeastern Hong Kong respond in a different and more complex way to freshwater discharges or precipitation changes (monsoon variability) in the catchments, owing to complex controls of deposition and preservation of organic matter in these estuarine and shelf environments. Caution is therefore needed in using organic elemental and isotopic compositions to decipher paleoenvironmental changes in East Asian continental shelves where intense river–sea interactions occur and sedimentary environments change drastically.     

东海内陆架泥质沉积体研究进展

陆架海现代泥质沉积研究具有重要的地质学、环境科学和气候学意义,数十年来一直受到海洋科学家的关注,尤其是近年来在我国兴起了一股研究陆架泥质沉积体的热潮,取得一大批重要成果。本文对我国最大的东海内陆架泥质沉积体的研究进展进行回顾,作为典型区域呈献给读者。东海内陆架泥质沉积区从长江口水下三角洲向南,沿闽浙近岸浅海一直延伸到台湾海峡中部,全长800km,宽约100km,面积约80000km2,相当于两个台湾岛的大小,实属我国乃至亚洲浅海规模最大(体积排第二)的楔式泥质沉积体和现代沉积区。该区中晚全新世沉积地层厚度较大,局部厚达40—80m,总体上呈近岸厚、向海方向逐渐变薄,一般在50—60m等深线、局部可达75m甚至90m等深线附近尖灭。该区泥质沉积物粒度较细,主要由黏土和粉砂组成(大于90%),砂含量很低(小于10%),黏土和粉砂含量在泥质沉积区外缘急剧降低,而砂含量突然增加。沉积物类型为粉砂质黏土和黏土质粉砂,外侧与黏土-粉砂-砂(混合沉积)或泥质砂为界。粒度分布南北有一定差异,北段(长江口外至瓯江口外)近岸较粗外侧较细,近岸为黏土质粉砂,外侧为粉砂质黏土;而南段(自瓯江口至台湾海峡北部)...     

全新世大暖气广西钦州湾红树林衰退的红树林源有机质贡献示踪及其对亚洲季风的响应

The response of mangrove ecosystems to the Asian monsoon in the future global warming can be understood by reconstructing the development of mangrove forests during the Holocene climatic optimum(HCO), using proxies preserved in coastal sediments. The total organic matter in sediments of a segmented core, with calibrated age ranges between 5.6 and 7.7 cal. ka BP and corresponding to the HCO, from the Qinzhou Bay in Guangxi, China, is quantitatively partitioned into three end-members according to their sources: mangrove-derived, terrigenous,and marine phytoplanktonic, using a three-end-member model depicted by organic carbon isotope(δ13Corg) and the molar ratio of total organic carbon to total nitrogen(C/N). The percentage of mangrove-derived organic matter(MOM) contribution is used as a proxy for mangrove development. Three visible drops in MOM contribution occurred at ca. 7.3, ca. 6.9, and ca. 6.2 cal. ka BP, respectively, are recognized against a relatively stable and higher MOM contribution level, indicating that three distinct mangrove forest degradations occurred in the Qinzhou Bay during the HCO. The three mangrove forest degradations approximately correspond to the time of the strengthened/weakened Asian winter/summer monsoon. This indicates that even during a period favorable for the mangrove development, such as the HCO, climatic extremes, such as cold and dry events driven by the strengthened/weakened Asian winter/summer monsoon, can trigger the degradation of mangrove forests.     

末次盛冰期以来挪威海北部陆源物质输入对气候变化的响应

北大西洋记录的末次冰期以来千年尺度快速气候变化对研究未来气候突变具有重要意义。对取自挪威海北部ACR5-BB03岩心进行了沉积物粒度组成、AMS14C测年、颜色反射率和高分辨率XRF地球化学元素无损扫描测试,运用因子分析方法判别了不同来源沉积物的地球化学组成差异,并与末次盛冰期以来北大西洋海洋循环机制和气候变化对比分析,讨论了海洋环境变化对沉积物来源的影响和制约机制。结果显示,末次盛冰期以来挪威海北部沉积物组成经历了剧烈变化,可与北大西洋暖流、冰盖消融、温盐环流和北大西洋深层水的变化密切关联。21.5 cal.kaBP之前沉积物粒度和化学组成特征与之后明显不同,陆源物质占优势,并以一种有序的层状膨胀性矿物层的出现为特征,表明此时海冰扩张带来的冰筏碎屑物质使得挪威海陆源物质输入增强和颗粒粗化;21.5~16.5 cal.kaBP期间生源物质贡献增强,陆源物质含量减少,预示了北大西洋暖流的向北极入侵和挪威海水体的垂向交换增强;16.5~10 cal.kaBP期间生源物质含量又出现了阶段性减少,陆源物质贡献增强,说明冰消期频繁变化的冰融水输入和北大西洋暖流强度对挪威海物质来源的影响;10 cal.kaBP以来,生源组分迅速增加,且变化频率和幅度同时加剧,北大西洋暖流的强弱波动及其导致的温盐环流变化是挪威海物质来源的控制因素。     

Holocene ice dynamics and bottom-water formation associated with Cape Darnley polynya activity recorded in Burton Basin,East Antarctica

A multi-proxy study including sedimentological, mineralogical, biogeochemical and micropaleontological methods was conducted on sediment core PS69/849-2 retrieved from Burton Basin, MacRobertson Shelf, East Antarctica. The goal of this study was to depict the deglacial and Holocene environmental history of the MacRobertson Land–Prydz Bay region. A special focus was put on the timing of ice-sheet retreat and the variability of bottom-water formation due to sea ice formation through the Holocene. Results from site PS69/849-2 provide the first paleo-environmental record of Holocene variations in bottom-water production probably associated to the Cape Darnley polynya, which is the second largest polynya in the Antarctic. Methods included end-member modeling of laser-derived high-resolution grain size data to reconstruct the depositional regimes and bottom-water activity. The provenance of current-derived and ice-transported material was reconstructed using clay-mineral and heavy-mineral analysis. Conclusions on biogenic production were drawn by determination of biogenic opal and total organic carbon. It was found that the ice shelf front started to retreat from the site around 12.8 ka BP. This coincides with results from other records in Prydz Bay and suggests warming during the early Holocene optimum next to global sea level rise as the main trigger. Ice-rafted debris was then supplied to the site until 5.5 cal. ka BP, when Holocene global sea level rise stabilized and glacial isostatic rebound on MacRobertson Land commenced. Throughout the Holocene, three episodes of enhanced bottom-water activity probably due to elevated brine rejection in Cape Darnley polynya occured between 11.5 and 9 cal. ka BP, 5.6 and 4.5 cal. ka BP and since 1.5 cal. ka BP. These periods are related to shifts from warmer to cooler conditions at the end of Holocene warm periods, in particular the early Holocene optimum, the mid-Holocene warm period and at the beginning of the neoglacial. In contrast, between 7.7 and 6.7 cal. ka BP, brine rejection shut down, maybe owed to warm conditions and pronounced open-water intervals.
