Pelagic marine ecosystem responses to late Pleistocene climate change

Abstract:

Pelagic marine ecosystems occupy the most expansive habitat on the Earth and influence global climate through the organic carbon pump. In this thesis I tested for changes in North Atlantic primary, fish, and export production using two sediment cores – subpolar ODP Hole 982B and midlatitude IODP Hole U1313A – during late Pleistocene glacial-interglacial cycles in the past 200 kyrs. I hypothesised that there were causative changes in ecosystem production at different trophic levels driven by c...
