Early to Late Holocene Surface Exposure Ages From Two Marine-Terminating Outlet Glaciers in Northwest Greenland

Creator:: Reusche, Melissa M., Marcott, Shaun A., Ceperley, Elizabeth G., Barth, Aaron M., Brook, Edward J., Mix, Alan C., and Caffee, Marc W.
Abstract:: Terrestrial chronologies from southern Greenland provide a detailed deglacial history of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS). The northern GIS margin history, however, is less established. Here we present surface exposure ages from moraines associated with two large outlet glaciers, Petermann and Humboldt, in the northwestern sector of the GIS. These...

Abrupt change in atmospheric CO₂ during the last ice age

Creator:: Ahn, Jinho, Brook, Edward J., Schmittner, Andreas, and Kreutz, Karl
Abstract:: During the last glacial period atmospheric carbon dioxide and temperature in Antarctica varied in a similar fashion on millennial time scales, but previous work indicates that these changes were gradual. In a detailed analysis of one event we now find that approximately half of the CO₂ increase that occurred during...

Atmospheric CO₂ over the last 1000 years: A high-resolution record from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide ice core

Creator:: Ahn, Jinho, Brook, Edward J., Mitchell, Logan, Rosen, Julia, McConnell, Joseph R., Taylor, Kendrick, Etheridge, David, and Rubino, Mauro
Abstract:: We report a decadally resolved record of atmospheric CO₂ concentration for the last 1000 years, obtained from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide shallow ice core. The most prominent feature of the pre-industrial period is a rapid ∼7 ppm decrease of CO₂ in a span of ∼20–50 years at...

Modes of Global Climate Variability during Marine Isotope Stage 3 (60–26 ka)

Creator:: Pisias, Nicklas G., Clark, Peter U., and Brook, Edward J.
Abstract:: Recent analysis of 38 globally distributed paleoclimatic records covering Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS 3) 60–26 ka demonstrated that the two leading empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) explaining the data are the Greenland ice-core signal (“northern” signal) and the Antarctic ice-core signal (“southern” signal). Here singular spectral analysis (SSA) is used...

Multidecadal variability of atmospheric methane, 1000–1800 C.E.

Creator:: Mitchell, Logan E., Brook, Edward J., Sowers, Todd, McConnell, J. R., and Taylor, Kendrick
Abstract:: We present a new high-precision, high-resolution record of atmospheric methane from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide ice core covering 1000–1800 C.E., a time period known as the late preindustrial Holocene (LPIH). The results are consistent with previous measurements from the Law Dome ice core, the only other high-resolution...

The WAIS Divide deep ice core WD2014 chronology - Part 2: Annual-layer counting (0-31 ka BP)

Creator:: Sigl, Michael, Fudge, Tyler J., Winstrup, Mai, Cole-Dai, Jihong, Ferris, David, McConnell, Joseph R., Taylor, Ken C., Welten, Kees C., Woodruff, Thomas E., Adolphi, Florian, Bisiaux, Marion, Brook, Edward J., Buizert, Christo, Caffee, Marc W., Dunbar, Nelia W., Edwards, Ross, Geng, Lei, Iverson, Nels, Koffman, Bess, Layman, Lawrence, Maselli, Olivia J., McGwire, Kenneth, Muscheler, Raimund, Nishiizumi, Kunihiko, Pasteris, Daniel R., Rhodes, Rachael H., and Sowers, Todd A
Abstract:: We present the WD2014 chronology for the upper part (0–2850 m; 31.2 ka BP) of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide (WD) ice core. The chronology is based on counting of annual layers observed in the chemical, dust and electrical conductivity records. These layers are caused by seasonal changes...

Local artifacts in ice core methane records caused by layered bubble trapping and in situ production: a multi-site investigation

Creator:: Rhodes, Rachael H., Faïn, Xavier, Brook, Edward J., McConnell, Joseph R., Maselli, Olivia J., Sigl, Michael, Edwards, Jon, Buizert, Christo, Blunier, Thomas, Chappellaz, Jérôme, and Freitag, Johannes
Abstract:: Advances in trace gas analysis allow localised, non-atmospheric features to be resolved in ice cores, superimposed on the coherent atmospheric signal. These high-frequency signals could not have survived the low-pass filter effect that gas diffusion in the firn exerts on the atmospheric history and therefore do not result from changes...

Precise interpolar phasing of abrupt climate change during the last ice age

Creator:: Buizert, Christo, Adrian, Betty, Ahn, Jinho, Albert, Mary, Alley, Richard B., Baggenstos, Daniel, Bauska, Thomas K., Bay, Ryan C., Bencivengo, Brian B., Bentley, Charles R., Brook, Edward J., Chellman, Nathan J., Clow, Gary D., Cole-Dai, Jihong, Conway, Howard, Cravens, Eric, Cuffey, Kurt M., Dunbar, Nelia W., Edwards, Jon S., Fegyveresi, John M., Ferris, Dave G., Fitzpatrick, Joan J., Fudge, T. J., Gibson, Chris J., Gkinis, Vasileios, Goetz, Joshua J., Gregory, Stephanie, Hargreaves, Geoffrey M., Iverson, Nels, Johnson, Jay A., Jones, Tyler R., Kalk, Michael L., Kippenhan, Matthew J., Koffman, Bess G., Kreutz, Karl, Kuhl, Tanner W., Lebar, Donald A., Lee, James E., Marcott, Shaun A., Markle, Bradley R., Maselli, Olivia J., McConnell, Joseph R., McGwire, Kenneth C., Mitchell, Logan E., Mortensen, Nicolai B., Neff, Peter D., Nishiizumi, Kunihiko, Nunn, Richard M., Orsi, Anais J., Pasteris, Daniel R., Pedro, Joel B., Pettit, Erin C., Price, P.

C., Winstrup, Mai, Wong, Gifford J., and Woodruff, Thomas E.
Abstract:: The last glacial period exhibited abrupt Dansgaard–Oeschger climatic oscillations, evidence of which is preserved in a variety of Northern Hemisphere palaeoclimate archives¹. Ice cores show that Antarctica cooled during the warm phases of the Greenland Dansgaard–Oeschger cycle and vice versa[superscript 2,3], suggesting an interhemispheric redistribution of heat through a mechanism...

Observing and modeling the influence of layering on bubble trapping in polar firn

Creator:: Mitchell, Logan E., Buizert, Christo, Brook, Edward J., Breton, Daniel J., Fegyveresi, John, Baggenstos, Daniel, Orsi, Anais, Severinghaus, Jeffrey, Alley, Richard B., Albert, Mary, Rhodes, Rachael H., McConnell, Joseph R., Sigl, Michael, Maselli, Olivia, Gregory, Stephanie, and Ahn, Jinho
Abstract:: Interpretation of ice core trace gas records depends on an accurate understanding of the processes that smooth the atmospheric signal in the firn. Much work has been done to understand the processes affecting air transport in the open pores of the firn, but a paucity of data from air trapped...

The WAIS Divide deep ice core WD2014 chronology – Part 1: Methane synchronization (68–31 kaBP) and the gas age–ice age difference

Abstract:: The West Antarctic Ice Sheet Divide (WAIS Divide, WD) ice core is a newly drilled, high-accumulation deep ice core that provides Antarctic climate records of the past ~68 ka at unprecedented temporal resolution. The upper 2850 m (back to 31.2 ka BP) have been dated using annual-layer counting. Here we...
