Description / Table of Contents:
This book focuses on ice sheet/ocean interactions, on oceanic climate change during the last deglaciation period and on the high temporal resolution that can be obtained from sediment records at continental margin sites.
This is the first time that papers from the northeastern North American continental margin have been included together with papers from the East Greenland margin, the margins of northwest Europe, the northwest European Arctic and the Arctic and North Atlantic Oceans. Many of the papers present high-resolution stratigraphic data, supported by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) radiocarbon dates, which demonstrate the advantages of continental margin records in resolving the palaeoceanography of the North Atlantic Ocean and in regional reconstructions of climate change.
Containing new data and details of new approaches, this is a unifying collection of papers, fully indexed, at the forefront of a rapidly developing subject. It will be of interest to palaeoceanographers, marine geologists, climatologists, environmentalists and Quaternary geologists.
