Multidisciplinary study Of Continental/ocean Climate dynamics using High-resolution records from the eastern mediterraneAn

需要具有足够时间分辨率的连续海洋高分辨率气候记录来检测古气候的高频变化。这样的记录虽然罕见，但对于我们理解十年到千年时间尺度上气候环境变化的原因和后果至关重要。我们在近海岸和深地中海缺氧盆地的初步研究似乎提供了连续的海洋古气候记录，至少在过去的几个kyrs，我们建议扩大我们的试点项目，以评估这些网站是否是合适的分辨率研究古气候> 35 kyr，即未来的IODP钻探。

Continuous marine high-resolution climate records with sufficient time resolution are needed to detecthigh-frequency variations in paleo-climate. Such records rare but vital for our understanding of causesand consequences of climate environmental change at decadal to millennial time scales. Our initialstudies near-coastal and a deep Mediterranean anoxic basin site seem to provide continuous marinepaleo-climate record that permits such high-resolution dated climate reconstructions for at least thelast few kyrs.We propose to extend our pilot projects to assess if these sites are suitable resolution studies ofpaleoclimate > 35 kyr, i.e. for future IODP drilling.
