It seems beyond doubt that the surface of our planet is rapidly heating up. Policy-makers need to know how will climate systems and global sea level react to this global warming. In this project, we will study sediment cores from the Red Sea to investigate the oceanographic history of the region during the last four glacial cycles including past warm intervals that may represent natural analogs to future climate. We will develop new methods for reconstructing temperature and salinity from abundances of species of planktonic foraminifera, their shell size and ultrastructure and produce the first long record of temperature history of the Red Sea. Such record is essential for improving the accuracy of global sea-level reconstructions developed in collaboration by our colleagues in Southampton. We will then determine past salinity and temperature gradients in the region and monitor their dynamics at high resolution across past warm intervals. Such gradients reflect the interplay between the Indian and African Monsoon systems, and our results will allow us to determine how the Monsoon system and the position of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) varied during warm climates in the past. Our research will thus contribute to the understanding of climate dynamics and stability of continental ice sheets during warm intervals and to the evaluation of potential response of ITZC and Monsoonal systems to global warming.

毫无疑问，我们星球的表面正在迅速升温。政策制定者需要知道气候系统和全球海平面将如何应对全球变暖。在这个项目中，我们将研究红海的沉积物岩心，以调查该地区在过去四个冰川周期期间的海洋历史，包括过去的温暖时期，这可能代表了未来气候的自然模拟。我们将开发新方法，根据浮游有孔虫物种的丰度、壳尺寸和超微结构重建温度和盐度，并产生红海温度历史的第一个长期记录。此类记录对于提高我们南安普顿同事合作开发的全球海平面重建的准确性至关重要。然后，我们将确定该地区过去的盐度和温度梯度，并在过去的温暖时期以高分辨率监测它们的动态。这种梯度反映了印度和非洲季风系统之间的相互作用，我们的结果将使我们能够确定季风系统和热带辐合带（ITCZ）的位置在过去温暖气候期间如何变化。因此，我们的研究将有助于了解暖期期间大陆冰盖的气候动态和稳定性，并有助于评估 ITZC 和季风系统对全球变暖的潜在响应。
