    Notes: Palaeoceanographic reconstructions from the North Atlantic indicate massive ice breakouts from East Greenland near the onset of cold Dansgaard–Oeschger (D–O) stadials. In contrast to these coolings in the North Atlantic area, a new sea-surface temperature record reveals concomitant warm spells in the northern North Pacific. A sensitivity experiment with an atmospheric general circulation model is used to test the potential impact of sea-surface warmings by 3.5 °C in the North Pacific, on top of otherwise cold stadial climate conditions, on the precipitation regime over the Northern Hemisphere ice sheets. The model predicts a maximum response over East Greenland and the Greenland Sea, where a 40% increase in net annual snow accumulation occurs. This remote effect of North Pacific warm spells on the East Greenland snow-accumulation rate may play an important role in generating D–O cycles by rebuilding the ice lost during ice breakouts. In addition, the increased precipitation over the Greenland Sea may help to sustain the D–O stadial climate state.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract Fairly constant winds from N to NNE (Fig. 2) prevail at present at the Western Sahara coast. Accordingly, a relatively narrow field of barchan dunes of only 80 km width reaches the coast SE of Cape Blanc (Fig. 1). Very uniform pebble plains form their ground of advance in the study area 60 km wide and 18 km long. Height H, volume V, and distance D from the southern border of the study area were determined for 963 dunes from aerial photographs (Figs. 5 and 6). Data on the dune advance rate were estimated for the particular region byCoursin (1964). Consequently it was possible to calculate a dune sand discharge amounting to 93 000 m3/yr/80 km crossing the southern border of the study area at the time the aerial photographs were taken. Based on the areal distribution pattern of the dunes this sand flow probably might increase threefold within the next 800 years (Fig. 7). Corresponding to the dune sand-discharge QT a saltation sand-discharge (Q and q), 50–100 times larger, of 5,0 and 7–13 Mio m3/yr/80 km, respectively, reaches the Atlantic from the Sahara. The estimates were derived from two independant calculations: the dune advance rate and the wind data. If one compares the wind transported load from the Sahara with that of the mouths of large rivers (e. g. Niger River: 40 Mio. m3/yr) it seems only of minor importance. Because of the relatively coarse grain sizes (Md≈220μm) the wind sand supply is deposited mainly along the strand line. Consequently, remarkably wide sebkha plains are built forward and the shelf becomes unusually narrow. Several independent criteria (e. g. Fig. 7) suggest a fairly young age, close to 500 years of the recent barchan field. A different wind direction, from the NE, and a lowered sea-level might have resulted during the ice-ages in as much as 5 times larger wind load (? 25 Mio m3/yr) arriving at the shelf edge and from there flowing down to the deep sea as turbidity currents. The present wind load has a content of iron oxides of roughly 1.2 per thousand. This value increased to 3.2 per thousand in Pleistocene dune sands.
    Abstract: Résumé Actuellement, des vents assez constants de N à NNE, prédominant le long de la côte occidentale du Sahara, produisent un champ de barkhanes, de 80 km seulement de large, qui atteint la côte de l'Atlantique au SE du Cap Blanc (fig. 1). Des plaines de cailloux forment la base des dunes dans la zone étudiée qui est 60 km de large et 18 km de long. Ici, la hauteur H, le volume V et la distance D à la limite sud de la zone étudiée ont été déterminé pour 963 dunes d'après des photos aériennes (fig. 5 et 6). A l'aide de données sur la vitesse du déplacement des dunes (Coursin, 1964) il a été possible de calculer l'écoulement des sables dunaires (la quantité de sable transporté par les dunes). Il atteint 93.000 m3/an/80 km près de la limite sud de la zone, à l'époque où les photos aériennes ont été prises. D'après la répartition des dunes de cette zone, il est probable que cet écoulement de sable triplera au cours des prochains 800 ans (fig. 7). A l'écoulement des sables de dune (QT) correspond un mouvement des sables par saltation (Q et q). Il est 50–100 fois plus important, soit de 5 soit de 7–13× 106 m3/an/80 km, et atteint l'Atlantique en venant du Sahara. Ces données estimées résultent de deux méthodes de calculs indépendantes (Bagnold, 1941); 1. de la vitesse de déplacement des dunes, 2. des données sur la force du vent. Comparé à l'apport des grands fleuves (p. E. le Niger: 40×106 m3/an), l'apport du au vent est de moindre importance. Le sable dunaire est cependant déposé près de la côte à cause de la taille assez grande des grains (Md ≈220μ). Ainsi de larges sebhkas sont formés et le plateau continental devient exceptionellement étroit. Plusieurs arguments indépendants (fig. 7) permettent de supposer un âge très jeune, 500 ans, pour le champ de barkhanes. Pendant l'époque glaciaire, le vent venait du NE et le niveau marin était plus bas. Ainsi, l'apport sableux par le vent, probablement 5 fois plus important que celui d'aujourd'hui (25×106 m3/an), atteignait le bord du plateau continental et influençait, par des turbidites, la sédimentation dans l'océan profond. Le matériel apporté actuellement par le vent, contient 1,2 ‰ d'oxydes de fer. Dans les sables pleistocènes, cette valeur accroît jusqu'à 3,2 ‰
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Konstante Winde aus N bis NNE lassen aus der Sahara derzeit ein nur 80 km breites Feld Barchandünen SE von Cap Blanc zur Atlantikküste vordringen. Peneplainartige Kiesebenen bilden hier einen gleichmäßigen Untergrund für ein Meßfeld von 60 km Breite und 18 km Tiefe. Darauf wurden aus Luftbildern für 963 Dünen Höhe H, Volumen V und Abstand D von der Südgrenze des Meßfeldes bestimmt (Abb. 5 und 6). Bereits vorhandene Angaben über die Dünenwandergeschwindigkeit (Coursin, 1964) erlaubten aus diesen Daten den Dünen-Sandstrom zu berechnen. Für die Südgrenze des Meßfeldes ergaben sich für den Zeitpunkt der Luftbildaufnahme 93 000 m3/J./80 km. Aufgrund der Verteilung der Dünen auf dem Meßfeld ist zu erwarten, daß binnen 800 Jahren dieser Sandstrom auf das Dreifache anwachsen dürfte (Abb. 7). Dem Dünen-Sandstrom QT entspricht ein rund 50–100mal größerer Sprung-Sandstrom (Q bzw. q) Sahara—Atlantik mit 5,0 bzw. 7–13 Mio. m3/J./80 km. Diese Schätzwerte beruhen auf zwei voneinander unabhängigen Berechnungswegen (Bagnold, 1941): 1. aus der Dünenwandergeschwindigkeit, 2. aus Winddaten. Verglichen mit der Fracht in großen Flußmündungen (z. B. Niger: 40 Mio. m3/J.) ist die Windfracht der Sahara eher unbedeutend. Wegen ihrer relativ groben Korngrößen (Md≈220μ) wird sie vor allem nahe der Strandlinie abgelagert. Sie führt damit zum Vorbau besonders weiter Salzmarschen („Sebkhas“) und zu einer außergewöhnlichen Verengung des Schelfes. Mehrere unabhängige Argumente (u. a. Abb. 7) deuten auf ein sehr jugendliches Alter des Barchanfeldes von knapp 500 Jahren. Während der Eiszeiten dürften andere Windrichtungen (aus NE) und ein niedrigerer Meeresspiegel dazu beigetragen haben, daß ein etwa fünfmal größerer Windsandstrom (? 25 Mio. m3/J.) die Schelfkante des Atlantiks erreichte und durch abgleitende Suspensionsströme die Tiefseesedimentation mit beeinflußte. Die heutige Windfracht führt rund 1,2 ‰ Eisenoxide mit sich. Dieser Betrag steigt bei den Pleistozänsanden auf 3,2 ‰

    Description: The vertical density gradients in the Nordic Seas are crucial for the preconditioning of the surface water to thermohaline sinking in winter. These gradients can be reconstructed from paired oxygen isotope data in tests of different species of planktonic foraminifera, the isotopic signatures of which represent different calcification depths in the water column. Comparison of δ18O values from foraminiferal tests in plankton hauls, sediment traps, and nearby core top samples with the calculated δ18Ocalcite profile of the water column revealed species-specific δ18O vital effects and the role of bioturbational admixture of subfossil specimens into the surface sediment. On the basis of core top samples obtained along a west–east transect across various hydrographic regions of the Nordic Seas, δ18O values of Turborotalita quinqueloba document apparent calcification depths within the pycnocline at 25–75 m water depth. The isotopic signatures of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (s) reflect water masses near and well below the pycnocline between 70 and 250 m off Norway, where the Atlantic inflow leads to thermal stratification. Here, temperatures in the calcification depth of N. pachyderma (s) differ from sea surface temperature by approximately −2.5°C. In contrast, N. pachyderma (s) calcifies very close to the sea surface (20–50 m) in the Arctic domain of the western Nordic Seas. However, further west N. pachyderma (s) prefers somewhat deeper, more saline water at 70–130 m well below the halocline that confines the low saline East Greenland Current. This implies that the δ18O values of N. pachyderma (s) do not fully reflect the freshwater proportion in surface water and that any reconstruction of past meltwater plumes based on δ18O is too conservative, because it overestimates sea surface salinity. Minimum δ18O differences (〈0.2‰) between N. pachyderma (s) and T. quinqueloba may serve as proxy for sea regions with dominant haline and absent thermal stratification, whereas thermal stratification leads to δ18O differences of 〉0.4 to 〉1.5‰.

    Description: GLAMAP 2000 presents new reconstructions of the Atlantic's sea surface temperatures (SST) at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), defined at both 21,500–18,000 years B.P. (“Last Isotope Maximum”) and 23,000–19,000 years B.P. (maximum glacial sea level low stand and orbital minimum of solar insolation; EPILOG working group; see Mix et al. [2001]). These reconstructions use 275 sediment cores between the North Pole and 60°S with carefully defined chronostratigraphies. Four categories of core quality are distinguished. More than 100 core sections provide a glacial record with subcentennial- to multicentennial-scale resolution. SST estimates are based on a new set of almost 1000 reference samples of modern planktic foraminifera and on improved transfer-function techniques to deduce SST from census counts of microfossils, including radiolarians and diatoms. New proxies also serve to deduce sea ice boundaries. The GLAMAP 2000 SST patterns differ significantly in crucial regions from the CLIMAP [1981] reconstruction and thus are important in providing updated boundary conditions to initiate and validate computational models for climate prediction.
