    Description: The Campanian Volcanic Zone (CVZ) comprises multiple active volcanoes and includes the highly productive Campi Flegrei and Ischia caldera systems. These caldera volcanoes have produced probably the largest eruptions in Europe in the past 200 ka, such as the Monte Epomeo Green Tuff (MEGT; Ischia) at ca. 56 ka and the Campanian Ignimbrite (CI; Campi Flegrei) at ca. 40 ka, which form widespread isochrons across the Mediterranean region. These closely-spaced volcanic centres erupt phonolitic to trachytic glass compositions that are similar, and thus it can be challenging to correlate tephra deposits to specific volcanic sources. Here we present a detailed tephrostratigraphy for pre-CI eruption activity using the units preserved within a sequence at the coastal Acquamorta outcrop, on the western side of the CI caldera rim. Both the MEGT and CI units are present in the section, and they bracket twelve eruption units that were logged and sampled. New major and trace element glass chemistry data have been acquired for these Acquamorta tephra deposits. Three eruption deposits from Ischia and nine from Campi Flegrei are identified, which helps constrain the tempo of volcanic activity of these centres between the large caldera-forming eruptions. The three Ischia tephra deposits between the MEGT and the CI are indistinguishable based on both major and trace element glass chemistry and cannot be correlated to a specific or known eruption in this interval, such as the Schiappone tephra. The compositional variations between the Campi Flegrei eruptions reveal temporal shifts in the composition of the tephra deposits that reflect changes in the magmatic system prior to the CI eruption. These deposits indicate that there were at least nine eruptions at Campi Flegrei within 16 ka of the enormous CI eruption, and suggest that there was no significant period of repose before the caldera generating eruption.

    Description: Active volcanoes are a continuous threat for several regions worldwide and cause socio-economic and environmental issues, including the Virunga Volcanic Province (D.R. Congo). There, more than 2 million people are permanently exposed to the hazards of the most active volcanoes in Africa: Nyiragongo and Nyamulagira. However, there is a clear lack of information regarding the impacts of these hazards and how they may be affected by social vulnerability. In this study, a household survey based on semi-structural interviews was performed for rural communities in Virunga. This research aims to (i) investigate the impacts of volcanic hazards on rural communities facing distinct levels of social vulnerability, (ii) understand the adaptive strategies developed by these communities to address these impacts, and finally (iii) identify the main grievances with respect to volcanic hazards raised by these rural communities. The most vulnerable households are those directly affected by volcano-tectonic hazards such as lava flows, mazukus, volcanic gases, ash fallout, and seismic activity. Indirect dangers related to water and food contamination by volcanic emissions are also stronger for the most vulnerable households. Respondents reported that most edible plants and waters are strongly affected by direct volcanic emissions. Drinking waters, which come from traditional drainage, rainfall, and streams, are generally not suitable for human consumption in the study area. Community suggestions for addressing issues related to volcanic-tectonic hazards include efforts to improve water and food quality, enhancement of the sanitary system, timely information on the volcanic activity, volcano monitoring, and capacity building for volcanologists.

    Description: On December 26, 2018 (2:19 UTC), during a volcanic eruption on the Mt. Etna eastern flank (Sicily, southern Italy), the largest instrumental earthquake ever recorded in the volcano ruptured the Fiandaca Fault, with epicenter between Fleri and Pennisi villages (hypocenter at ca. 300 m a. s. l., Mw 4.9). This was the mainshock of an earthquake swarm and it was accompanied by widespread surface faulting and extensive damage along a narrow belt near the fault trace. Few hours after the mainshock, an episodic aseismic creep event occurred along the Aci Platani Fault, a SE extension of the Fiandaca Fault, which caused several damages in the Aci Platani village. We surveyed and mapped the coseismic and aseismic ground ruptures, and collected structural data on their geometry, displacement, and fault zone fabric. We compared the mapped surface ruptures with topography, lithology, and morphology of the buried top of the sedimentary basement. We conclude that the geometry of the volcanic pile influenced the surface expression of faulting during the December 26, 2018 event. The top surface of the marly clay basement should be considered as a detachment surface for shallow sliding blocks. The earthquake occurred on top of a depression of the sedimentary basement forcing the sliding eastward, causing at surface the re-arrangement of the fault strand pattern and deformation style, switching from shear faulting to a tensile failure. The Fleri earthquake therefore provides an unprecedented dataset for 1) understanding active faulting in the European largest onshore volcano, 2) modeling its complex dynamics, and 3) contributing to a more refined surface faulting hazard assessment at Mt. Etna. Results from this investigation might be useful for characterizing capable faulting in similar volcano-tectonic settings worldwide.

    Description: High-resolution multi-proxy records from two lakes on the southern Tibetan Plateau, Nam Co and Tangra Yumco, are used to infer long-term variations in the Asian monsoon system. We examine the moisture evolution during the Late Glacial Maximum and Holocene using the trace element and stable isotope composition of ostracod shells. The sediment records covering the past 24 cal. ka BP and 18 cal. ka BP, respectively, demonstrate the suitability of ostracod shell chemistry as paleoenvironmental proxy. We analysed (i) Mg/Ca, Ba/Ca and Sr/Ca ratios as salinity proxies, (ii) Fe/Ca, Mn/Ca and U/Ca ratios representing redox conditions and microbial activity, and (iii) rare earth elements (REEs) reflecting weathering and changes in provenance.

    Description: iButton (24) loggers measuring soil temperature were deployed in the Kaldoaivi Wilderness Area in August/September 2016 and retrieved in August 2018. They were installed in a very shallow depth in different locations, covering a wide range of landscape types, exposure and suspected snow conditions. Sensors were deployed approximately 3-5cm below the surface to avoid direct influence by the sun. Near surface soil moisture measurements were taken during late August/early September of 2016, 2017 and 2019 at the locations of the deployed iButtons. Snow depth and snow water equivalent measurements were taken during March 2018 at or near most measurement points. The field work and research was supported by the Austrian Science Fund (Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung, FWF) through the Doctoral College GIScience (DK W1237-N23).

    Description: Previous studies suggest that, during the late Pleistocene ice ages, surface-deep exchange was somehow weakened in the Southern Ocean's Antarctic Zone (AZ), reducing the leakage of deeply sequestered CO2 and thus contributing to the lower atmospheric CO2 levels of the ice ages. To better understand the surface nutrient consumption in the Antarctic ocean during glacial intervals and its implication on atmospheric CO2 changes, we measured diatom-bound nitrogen isotopes (d15N_db) extending back to 150 thousand years ago (150ka) in two sediment cores in the Indian sector of the AZ. The data series include d15N_db, TEX86L-based SST, d18O of planktonic foraminifera Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (sin.), sediment Ba/Fe and the age model of MD12-3394 (48°23' S, 64°35' E, 2320m water depth), d15N_db and updated age model of MD11-3353 (50°34' S, 68°23' E, 1568m water depth), as well as the mean d15N_db of the two sediment cores, and the d15N_db offset calculated using the mean d15N_db and MD12-3394 d15N_db alone. The age model for MD12-3394 was based on 7 Holocene radiocarbon dates measured with planktonic foraminifera Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (sin.) and Globigerina bulloides hand-picked from the 〉 63µm fraction, and correlation of reconstructed SST by TEX86L to the Antarctic temperature stack (ATS) (adjusted to AICC2012 age scale) compiled from ice core data. Ages were linearly interpolated between the stratigraphic tie points. The age model of MD11-3353 is based on the age model published in Thöle et al. (2019), with modifications of the youngest age tie point and the tie point at Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5-6 transition, and two additional tie points during MIS 3 based on correlation of d15N_db to MD12-3394 d15N_db. Monte Carlo simulation and Kalman filter were combined to generate a mean d15N_db time series for the two sediment cores on a 500-year time grid, following the method in Wang et al. (2017). For the d15N_db offset, a linear fit was first applied to glacial (20-27 ka,140-155 ka) and interglacial (0-10 ka, 115-126 ka) extreme values of d15N_db (or calculated mean d15N_db) and ATS. Using this linear regression, we calculated the ATS-predicted d15N_db. The d15N_db offset was obtained by subtracting the ATS-predicted d15N_db from measured d15N_db (or calculated mean d15N_db).

    Description: By means of a multiproxy data set combining biomarker (alkenones, n-alkanes), microfossil (diatoms) and sedimentological (ice rafted debris, XRF) data obtained from sediments from IODP Site U1417 in the Gulf of Alaska, we elucidate the paleoenvironmental setting in this area during the Mid Pleistocene Transition. The data point to a stimulation of the marine primary productivity through the input of nutrients (e.g. iron) via aeolian dust and icebergs. These fertilization pulses were likely triggered by the dynamic behaviour of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet during the Pleistocene.

    Description: Dataset 1 shows the dissolved iron (dFe) values of an iron release experiment performed in the Southern Ocean at the tip of the Western Antarctic Peninsula. Krill and salp fecal pellets (FP) were incubated in filtered seawater (FSW) and seawater with phytoplankton (SWP). After 48 hours of incubation the dFe concentrations were measured. Numbers marked in red have been recognized as outliers (due to contamination or analytic error) and have been excluded from statistical analysis. Dataset 2 shows the uptake of iron into Southern Ocean phytoplankton cells from the pre-incubated water. The uptake was measured using the radiotracer 55Fe into two size classes of plankton (0.2-2µm and 〉2µm). Total dFe uptake is the sum of the two size classes. Lines marked in orange have been excluded from statistical analysis because respective dissolved iron concentrations were not reliable. The data for both datasets was collected between 04/11/2018 and 04/14/2018 (campaign PS112) at the Western Antarctic Peninsula (60° 44.455 S 54° 30.477 W) from a depth of 25 m. The data was collected in order to compare the bioavailability of iron from salp and krill FP to a Southern Ocean plankton community. All sampling steps were performed in trace metal clean ways.

    Description: During expedition SCAN 2013, two gravity cores were collected in the Ona High slope, central Ona Basin, NE prolongation of the Antarctic Peninsula. Core TG-01 is 400 cm long and was collected from 2160 m water depth at 60º22'23.9314''S, 53º02'15.2501''W; core TG-03 is 295 cm long and was obtained from 2789 m water depth at 60º11'23.4003''S, 53º10'49.0810''W. Non-destructive analyses (i.e., physical properties measurements and X-ray fluorescence scanning) were performed on the archive halves. Both, physical properties (magnetic susceptibility, gamma-ray density, electrical resistivity and P-wave velocity) and major element compositions were determined at 1-cm resolution on split core surfaces of the archive halves using a GEOTEK Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) 81 at the Spanish Geological Survey (IGME, Spain).

    Description: In laboratory culture experiments, calcified and decalcified coccolithophore cells were offered as prey to a phagotrophic predator, both in separate pure cultures with calcified or decalcified cells only, and in mixed cultures that contained both cell types. Overall, three experiments were conducted, each with a different coccolithophore species. The prey and predator concentrations were monitored over the course of each experiment by flow cytometry and microscopic counting.
