    Description: A quantitative analysis of planktonic foraminifera, coupled with petrophysical and paleomagnetic measurements and 14C AMS calibrations, was carried out on a deep core recovered in the Sardinia Channel (Western Mediterranean Sea), during the CIESM Sub2 survey, providing an integrated stratigraphic time-framework over the last 80 kyr. Significant changes in the quantitative distribution of planktonic foraminifera allowed the identification of several eco-bioevents useful to accurately mark the boundaries of the eco-biozones widely recognised in the Western Mediterranean records and used for large scale correlations. Namely, 10 eco-biozones were identified based on the relative abundance of selected climate sensitive planktonic foraminiferal species. Sixteen codified eco-bioevents were correlated with the Alboran Sea planktonic foraminiferal data and four climatic global events (Sapropel S1, Younger Dryas, Greenland Isotope Interstadial 1, Greenland Isotope Stadial 2, Heinrich event H1-H6) were recognized. The eco-bioevents together with the 14C AMS calibrations allowed us to define an accurate age model, spanning between 2 and 83 kyr. The reliability of the age model was confirmed by comparing the colour reflectance (550 nm%) data of the studied record with the astronomically tuned record from the Ionian sea (ODP-Site 964). A mean sedimentation rate of about 7 cm/kyr included three turbidite event beds that were chronologically constrained within the relative low stand and lowering sea level phases of the MIS 4 and 3. The deep-sea sedimentary record includes a distinct tephra occurring at the base of the core which dates 78 ka cal. BP. The paleomagnetic data provide a well-defined record of the characteristic remanent magnetization that may be used to reconstruct the geomagnetic paleosecular variation for the Mediterranean back to 83 kyr.

The reliability of the age model was confirmed by comparing the colour reflectance (550 nm%) data of the studied record with the astronomically tuned one of the Ionian sea (ODP-Site 964). A mean sedimentation rate of about 7 cm/kyr was evaluated including three turbidite event beds that were chronologically constrained within the relative low stand and lowering sea level phases of the MIS 4 and MIS 3. The deep sea sedimentary record includes a distinct tephra occurring at the base of the core which dates 79 ka. The paleomagnetic data provide a well-defined record of the characteristic remanent magnetization that may be used to reconstruct the geomagnetic paleosecular variation for the Mediterranean back to 83 kyr cal.

    Description: Deep-sea ridges-channel systems have been recognized in some places on the continental rise around Antarctica. They are object of interest because of their relation to the ice sheet dynamics and their generally continuous record of paleo-climatic changes. The Wilkes Land continental margin is one of the areas where these morphological features are well developed; it is also particularly important because of its location close to the Mertz Glacier, which is one of the few outlet glaciers of the Eastern Antarctic Ice Sheet. The Wilkes Land continental margin was investigated induring the Austral Summer 2000 by the joint Australian and Italian WEGA(WilkEs basin GlAcial history) Project, onboard the R/V Tangaroa. During this cruise, about 600 km of multichannel seismic reflection profiles, 3.5 kHz acoustic profiles and 11 piston cores with trigger cores were acquired on the continental rise (Fig. 1). The Wilkes Land continental margin morphology is characterised by several submarine canyons cutting the slope while the lower rise, investigated by the WEGA Project, is characterised by a network of generally low relief channels separated by large sediment ridges. The detailed bathymetric map of the rise area shows three ridges named from west to east respectively “C”, “A” and “B”, bounded by the Jussie Canyon, the WEGA Channel and the Buffon Canyon (Fig. 1). This channel-ridge system has an approximately North-South elongation, perpendicular to the continental margin. The sediment ridges are ca. 150 km in length and more than 40 km of width and their relief is about 1000 meters in the proximal part, decreasing to ca. 300 meters offshore. They are asymmetrical, showing a long gentle eastern flank and a short steep western side, lying between 2500 and 3600 meters water depth in the upper and lower part respectively. The Jussie Canyon and the Buffon Canyon reach the shelf break, while the WEGA Channel seems to start lower, in the upper rise.

    Description: The upper continental slope of the Storfjorden- Kveithola Trough Mouth Fans (NW Barents Sea) contains a several m-thick late Pleistocene sequence of plumites composed of laminated mud interbedded with sand/silt layers. Radiocarbon ages revealed that deposition occurred during about 130 years at a very high sedimentation rate of 3.4 cm a-1, at about 7 km from the present shelf break. Palaeomagnetic and rock magnetic analyses confirm the existence of a prominent, short-living sedimentary event. The plumites appear laterally continuous and were correlated with the sedimentary sequences described west of Svalbard and neighboring glacial depositional systems representing a major event at regional scale appointed to correspond to the deep-sea sedimentary record of Meltwater Pulse-1a. We also present new sedimentological and geochemical insights, and multi-beam data adding information on the palaeoenvironmental characteristics during MWP-1a and ice sheet decay in the NW Barents Sea.
