摘要
Are the abrupt stadial/interstadial (S/IS) climate transitions observed in the Greenland ice cores also seen in marine climate records? Literature which shows that the S/IS events have a large footprint in ocean surface marine properties encompassing the entire Northern Hemisphere has been reviewed. Whether this influence extends to the deep circulation is more equivocal on most recent evidence. Several of the "Heinrich" ice rafting debris events are clearly associated with elimination of North Atlantic source waters from the deep Atlantic. But most cores studied do not resolve the other S/IS events, except for one new record from the Bermuda Rise which shows all of the major S/IS cycles in benthic foraminiferal. Deep-sea corals can tell us how rapid these events are in the deep sea. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
