During Ocean Drilling Program Leg 202, detailed shipboard paleomagnetic measurements at Sites 1233 and 1234 identified a reproducible high-resolution record of paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) at each site. These records also contained evidence for three magnetic field excursions. This paper summarizes the complete paleomagnetic record from Site 1233 and the...
We carried out a detailed rock magnetic and paleomagnetic study of deep-sea sediments from selected intervals of Site 1233 in order to assess whether they contain reproducible evidence for submillennial-scale environmental, climatic, and geomagnetic field variability. Three 1.5-m sediment intervals from oxygen isotope Stages 1, 2, and 3 were sampled...
Sediment spectral reflectance measurements were generated aboard the JOIDES Resolution during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 162 shipboard operations. The large size of the raw data set (over 1.3 gigabytes) and limited computer hard disk storage space precluded detailed analysis of the data at sea, although broad band averages were used...
We present benthic isotope stratigraphies for Sites 1236, 1237, 1239, and 1241 that span the late Miocene–Pliocene time interval from 6 to 2.4 Ma. Orbitally tuned timescales were generated for Sites 1237 and 1241 by correlating the high-frequency variations in gamma ray attenuation density, percent sand of the carbonate fraction,...
Perdeutero-spiropentane (C₅D₈) has been synthesized and infrared and Raman spectra are reported for the first time. Wavenumber assignments are made for most of the fundamental vibrational modes. Gas phase infrared spectra were recorded at a resolution (0.002 cm⁻¹) sufficient to resolve individual rovibrational lines and show evidence of strong Coriolis...
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...
The authors employ a social-ecological framework to aid our understanding of the complex array of factors in the immediate and broader environment that influence adolescent sexual development. Further, sexual development is viewed as normative and critical to positive growth. The authors provide an overview of the
Two-Cities Study, a multi-stage...
Using spatial autocorrelation analysis, we
examined the within-population genetic structure of
Rhizopogon vinicolor and R. vesiculosus, two hypogeous
ectomycorrhizal (EM) species that are sympatric
sister taxa known to differ in their clonal structure.
We collected 121 sporocarps and 482 tuberculate EM
of both species from a 20 ha forest stand...
Diseased and healthy Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) were identified at two black-stain root disease centers, caused by Leptographium wageneri var. pseudotsugae Harrington & Cobb, in the Oregon Coast Range near Coos Bay. Phloem and sapwood near the root collar were sampled monthly for 1 year, whereas roots were sampled...
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...
