    Description: Closure of the Central American Seaway (CAS) and hydrology of the Caribbean Sea triggered Northern Hemisphere Glaciation and played an important role in the Pliocene to modern‐day climate re‐establishing the deep and surface ocean currents. New data on Mn/Ca obtained with femtosecond laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry on well‐preserved tests of the epibenthic foraminifer Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi and infaunal C. mundulus contribute to the interpretation of paleoenvironmental conditions of the Caribbean Sea between 5.2 and 2.2 Ma (million years) across the closure of the CAS. Hydrothermal activity at the Lesser Antilles may be a primary source of Mn in the well‐oxygenated Plio‐Pleistocene Caribbean Sea. Incorporation of Mn in the benthic foraminifer shell carbonate is assumed to be affected by surface ocean nutrient cycling, and may hence be an indicator of paleoproductivity.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: The closure of the Panama Isthmus caused the expansion of ice sheets in the Northern Hemisphere and changed the water current dynamics and climate in the Caribbean Sea since the Pliocene (∼5.3 million years ago). New Mn/Ca data measured using femtosecond laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry on the deep‐sea benthic foraminifer species Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi and Cibicidoides mundulus help us understand past environmental conditions of the Caribbean Sea prevailed between 5.2 and 2.2 million years ago. While manganese might be sourced from the surrounding hydrothermal vents, its incorporation in the foraminifer shell carbonate might be related to nutrient cycling and may indicate past biological productivity in the ocean.
    Description: Key Points: Femtosecond‐laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry provides a new approach on distinguishing Mn of the ontogenetic shell calcite from Mn of the authigenic coatings. Ontogenetic Mn within the foraminifer shell calcite may result from the regional nutrient cycle. Mn in the deep eastern Caribbean Sea may mainly derive from hydrothermal sources along the Antilles Island Arc.

    Notes: Abstract Ball-like molecules with strong dipoles (labels) were mixed with synthetic polyisoprene (IR305) in low concentrations (〈1%) and measured dielectrically in the frequency range 10−2–107 Hz and the temperature range −70–0°C (glass relaxation region). Calorimetric measurements showed that this type of label has a plasticizing effect on the polymeric matrix. The dielectric measurements showed that these ball-like molecules relax through cooperative rotations with the polymeric segments and at the same relaxation frequency. In addition, the label molecules showed a high-frequency local relaxation process. The relaxation strength ratio of the local process (X local) to the total relaxation strength of the label was found to be dependent on the volume as well as on the shape of the label. A comparison between the relaxation behaviors of the ball-and rod-like molecules, having the same volume, showed that the length of the label is also an important parameter for the determination of the local contribution as well as of the cooperative relaxation mechanism of the label. The label relaxation process is discussed in relation to the molecular packing of the host polymer.

    Notes: Abstract Rod-like molecules with a strong dipole in the long axis were mixed with synthetic polyisoprene (IR305) in low concentrations (0.1–5 wt%) and measured dielectrically in the frequency range 10−2–106 Hz and the temperature range −60°–0°C (glass relaxation range). The measurements showed an additional symmetrical relaxation process slower than the glass process by a factor ranging from 10 to 100 times, depending on the length and structure of the label. The label relaxation process was characterized by a narrow distribution of relaxation times and its strong coupling with the segmental motion. For the labels with only a longitudinal dipole moment, no relevant part of the label relaxation was observed in the relaxation frequencies of the glass process; this may be attributed to the parallelism and compactness of the polyisoprene chains. In contrast, the labels with an additional vertical dipole component showed an additional relaxation process superimposed on the glass relaxation with also almost the same distribution of relaxation times. The slow label relaxation could be attributed to a diffusion or rotational diffusion relaxation process through a multistep relaxation mechanism determined by the segmental motion of the matrix.
