Collaborative Research: A High Resolution Study of Sea Surface Temperature Variability in the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool

请提供资金，作为国际古海洋学项目图像的一部分，对1998年在印度洋-太平洋暖池区收集的深海岩心中的晚更新世和全新世海洋温度和水文变异性进行高分辨率研究。该项目将产生热带暖池区气候变化的第一个记录，其分辨率足以与高纬度和低纬度冰芯记录进行直接比较。这将允许检验上一次冰川期间温水池的温度不超过2摄氏度的假设。将使用多代理(主要同位素、烯酮、mg/CA)方法来重建过去150kyr的海表面温度以及深水和中层水温。

Funding is requested to conduct a high resolution study of late Pleistocene and Holocene ocean temperature and hydrographic variability archived in deep sea cores collected in 1998 within the Indo-Pacific warm pool region as part of the international paleoceanographic project IMAGES. This project will produce the first records of climate variability in the tropical warm pool region at resolutions high enough for direct comparison with both high and low latitude ice core records. This will allow testing of the hypothesis that the warm pool did not cool more than 2 degrees C during the last glacial. A Multiproxy (staple isotope, alkenone, Mg/CA) approach will be used to reconstruct sea surface temperatures, as well as deep and intermediate water temperatures for the last 150kyr.
