    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract On the basis of thermodynamical modelling it was proves that pressure and temperature variations may induce precipitation of barite, anhydrite/gypsum and celestite in geothermyl power plants. The precipitation dynamics of earth-alkaline sulfates has been investigated in a column experiment simulating in-situ conditions for pressure, temperature, and salinity (216 g/l). In this paper we describe the experimental setup for simulating pressures up to 250 bar and high temperatures in a sandstone core. Additional precipitation experiments confirmed the expected second-orer reaction for the precipitation of barite at a medium rate of 2.5 · 10 −4 l · mg −1 · h −1 . The experiments show that the solubility of barite (2.5 mg/l Ba and 450 mg/ISO 4 ) is higher than the model forecast. Precipitation of celestite and anhydrite/gypsum was not observed. During the column experiments with a sandstone core under in-situ conditions no precipitation of barite, anhydrite/gypsum and celestite took place.
    Notes: Kurzfassung Wie geochemisch-thermodynamische Modellierungen gezeigt haben, können während des Betriebs einer geothermischen Heizanlage durch Druck- und Temperaturveränderungen Baryt, Anhydrit/Gips oder Cölestin ausfallen. Das Fällungsverhalten der Erdalkalisulfate wurde unter In-situ-Bedingungen (Druck, Temperatur, Salinität 216 g/l) in einem Durchströmungsversuch bestimmt. Es wird eine Durchströmungsanlage vorgestellt, die Drucke bis zu 250 bar und hohe Temperaturen bei der Durchströmung eines Sandsteinkerns zuläßt. Ergänzende Fällungsexperimente bestätigen eine zu erwartende Reaktion zweiter Ordnung bei der Kristallisation von Baryt mit einer mittleren Geschwindigkeitskonstanten von 2,5 · 10 −4 l · mg −1 · h −1 . Die real lösliche Menge Baryt (2,5 mg/l Ba und 450 mg/ISO 4 ) ist höher als das thermodynamische Gleichgewicht vorhersagt. Cölestin und Anhydrit oder Gipsausfällungen konnten nicht nachgewiesen werden. Bei der Durchströmung des Sandsteinkerns unter In-situ-Bedingungen findet keine Ausfällung von Baryt, Anhydrit/Gips oder Cölestin statt. Obwohl Kristallisationskeime im Sandstein vorhanden sind, erfolgt keine Fällung aus den metastabilen Lösungen.

    Description: The seasonality of hydroclimate during past periods of warmer than modern global temperatures is a critical component for understanding future climate change scenarios. Although only partially analogous to these scenarios, the last interglacial (LIG, Marine Isotope Stage 5e, ~127–117 ka) is a popular test bed. We present coral δ18O monthly resolved records from multiple Bonaire (southern Caribbean) fossil corals (Diploria strigosa) that date to between 130 and 118 ka. These records represent up to 37 years and cover a total of 105 years, offering insights into the seasonality and characteristics of LIG tropical Atlantic hydroclimate. Our coral δ18O records and available coral Sr/Ca-sea surface temperature (SST) records reveal new insights into the variable relationship between the seasonality of tropical Atlantic seawater δ18O (δ18Oseawater) and SST. Coral δ18O seasonality is found to covary with SST and insolation seasonality throughout the LIG, culminating in significantly higher than modern values at 124 and 126 ka. At 124 ka, we reconstruct a 2 month lead of the coral δ18O versus the Sr/Ca-SST annual cycle and increased δ18Oseawater seasonality. A fully coupled climate model simulates a concomitant increase of southern Caribbean Sea summer precipitation and depletion of summer δ18Oseawater. LIG hydroclimate at Bonaire differed from today's semiarid climate with a minor rainy season during winter. Cumulatively, our coral δ18O, δ18Oseawater, and model findings indicate a mid-LIG northward expansion of the South American Intertropical Convergence Zone into the southern Caribbean Sea, highlighting the importance of regional aspects within model and proxy reconstructions of LIG hydroclimate seasonality.

    Description: The climate of the Sahara and Arabian Deserts during the Little Ice Age is not well known, due to a lack of annually resolved natural and documentary archives. We present an annual reconstruction of temperature and aridity derived from Sr/Ca and oxygen isotopes in a coral of the desert‐surrounded northern Red Sea. Our data indicate that the eastern Sahara and Arabian Deserts did not experience pronounced cooling during the late Little Ice Age (~1750–1850) but suggest an even more arid mean climate than in the following ~150 years. The mild temperatures are broadly in line with predominantly negative phases of the North Atlantic Oscillation during the Little Ice Age. The more arid climate is best explained by meridional advection of dry continental air from Eurasia. We find evidence for an abrupt termination of the more arid climate after 1850, coincident with a reorganization of the atmospheric circulation over Europe.

    Description: Proxy reconstructions of tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) that extend beyond the period of instrumental observations have primarily focused on centennial to millennial variability rather than on seasonal to multidecadal variability. Here we present monthly-resolved records of Sr/Ca (a proxy of SST) from fossil annually-banded Diploria strigosa corals from Bonaire (southern Caribbean Sea). The individual corals provide time-windows of up to 68 years length, and the total number of 295 years of record allows for assessing the natural range of seasonal to multidecadal SST variability in the western tropical Atlantic during snapshots of the mid- to late Holocene. Comparable to modern climate, the coral Sr/Ca records reveal that mid- to late Holocene SST was characterised by clear seasonal cycles, persistent quasi-biennial and prominent interannual as well as inter- to multidecadal-scale variability. However, the magnitude of SST variations on these timescales has varied over the last 6.2 ka. The coral records show increased seasonality during the mid-Holocene consistent with climatemodel simulations indicating that southern Caribbean SST seasonality is induced by insolation changes on orbital timescales,whereas internal dynamics of the climate system play an important role on shorter timescales. Interannual SST variability is linked to ocean– atmosphere interactions of Atlantic and Pacific origin. Pronounced interannual variability in the western tropical Atlantic is indicated by a 2.35 ka coral, possibly related to a strengthening of the variability of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation throughout the Holocene. Prominent inter- to multidecadal SST variability is evident in the coral records and slightly more pronounced in the mid-Holocene. We finally argue that our coral data provide a target for studying Holocene climate variability on seasonal and interannual to multidecadal timescales, when using further numerical models and high-resolution proxy data.
