A high-resolution Late Glacial and Holocene Stalagmite Stable Isotope Record ...

Motivation and Study Sites

> Turkey: influenced by / exhibiting a variety of climate patterns> Very few climate proxy data available> Highly sensitive to global warming (IPCC reports)> Peculiar location in the historical context> Hosting thousand of caves with stalagmites!

Study Site – Climate Characteristics

2. April 2009

What we measured

> Stalagmite So-1> δ13C and δ18O, last 50000 years > ~ 8 years of temporal resolution (late glacial and Holocene)> 99 U-Th dates, errors <= 1 %

> Stalagmite O-1> δ13C and δ18O, last 10000 years > At the moment: Lower temporal resolution,

looser age control> Analyses ongoing

Questions

> The response of vegetation during big warmings / coolings ? (Bolling/Allerod , Younger Dryas, Holocene ...)

> Did shorter stadials (Older / Oldest Dryas, Gerzensee) really exist?

> Effect of meltwater inputs ?> Flooding of Black Sea ?> Holocene climate

patterns ?

δ13C : relation to climate

> More negative δ13C in stalagmites when the vegetation is up and running!

> Microbial activity> C4 plants> Abundant rainfall> Moderate temperatures

> More positive δ13C in stalagmites when the vegetation is less active

> C3 plants> Drought> Extreme heat / cold> Human impact (land use change)

δ18O: relation to climate

> More positive δ18O in stalagmites in case of :

> Generally warmer climate

> More summer rainfall (relative to winter)

— More negative δ18O in stalagmites in case of:

> Generally cooler climate

> More winter rainfall

> Source effects: Input from melting ice

> Amount effect:Heavier rain

> Continental rain-out:Rainfall source far away

Holocene climate patterns

2. April 2009

Conclusions

> Very rapid vegetation response on the Black Sea coast> Shorter stadials identifiable> Meltwater pulses clear> Rapid Holocene events unclear (8.2, 4.2 kyr events)> Big changes after mid-Holocene

2. April 2009

Outlook

> Results to be reproduced> Trace elements to be incorporated> What was different in the Early to Mid-Holocene?

Teleconnections? Rainfall regime? Seasonality?> Late Holocene Climate?
