Deglacial and Holocene sea-ice and climate dynamics in the Bransfield Strait, northern Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2023 The reconstruction of past sea-ice distribution in the Southern Ocean is crucial for an improved understanding of ice–ocean–atmosphere feedbacks and the evaluation of Earth system and Antarctic ice sheet models.

Isotopologue Ratios Identify <sup>13</sup>C-Depleted Biomarkers in Environmental Samples Impacted by Methane Turnover. [PDF]
Rapid Commun Mass SpectromABSTRACT Rationale The stable carbon isotopic composition (δ13C) of individual lipids is of great value in studying carbon cycling. Among those, microbial lipids in sediments impacted by high methane turnover stand out due to their uniquely depleted isotopic fingerprint.

Asian Winter Monsoon Imprint on the Water Column Structure at the Northern South China Sea Coast
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Coastal regions of the northern South China Sea (SCS) strongly interact with the Asian monsoon circulation (AMC). Thus, variations of sea surface temperature (SST) here are newly suggested to document AMC changes in an effective manner, but additional ...

Assessing branched tetraether lipids as tracers of soil organic carbon transport through the Carminowe Creek catchment (southwest England) [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2020 Soils represent the largest reservoir of organic carbon (OC) on land. Upon mobilization, this OC is either returned to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO2) or transported and ultimately locked into (marine) sediments, where it will act as a long-term ...

GDGT distributions on the East Siberian Arctic Shelf: implications for organic carbon export, burial and degradation [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2015 Siberian permafrost contains a globally significant pool of organic carbon (OC) that is vulnerable to enhanced warming and subsequent release into the contemporary carbon cycle.

Ubiquitous production of branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) in global marine environments: a new source indicator for brGDGTs [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 Presumed source specificity of branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) from bacteria thriving in soil/peat and isoprenoid GDGTs (iGDGTs) from aquatic organisms led to the development of several biomarker proxies for biogeochemical cycle ...
