Abstract We investigated the variability and phase relationship of two annually to subdecadally resolved sea surface temperature (SST) proxy records from the Mediterranean sapropel S5 deposited during the Last Interglacial. We compared our recently published alkenone‐based SST record, considered to reliably represent surface temperature, with a newly ...

Assessment of soil n-alkane δD and branched tetraether membrane lipid distributions as tools for paleoelevation reconstruction [PDF]
δ18O values of pedogenic minerals forming from soil water are commonly used to reconstruct paleoelevation. To circumvent some of the disadvantages of this method, soil n-alkane δD values were recently proposed as a new tool to reconstruct ...

Abstract A comprehensive understanding of the processes and mechanisms driving Holocene temperature changes is crucial for resolving the ongoing Holocene temperature controversy. Here, we reconstructed land surface temperature (LST) variations over the past 27,000 years in two loess‐paleosol profiles from the Chinese Loess Plateau based on soil ...

Mid-late Holocene temperature and precipitation variations in the Guanting Basin, upper reaches of the Yellow River [PDF]
The reconstruction of prehistoric temperature and precipitation variations in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is essential for understanding the cultural evolution of the region, but related information is sparse due to the limitations of the ...

Eukaryotic-Like Virus Budding in
Similar to many eukaryotic viruses (and unlike bacteriophages), viruses infecting archaea are often encased in lipid-containing envelopes. However, the mechanisms of their morphogenesis and egress remain unexplored.

The Branched GDGT Isomer Ratio Refines Lacustrine Paleotemperature Estimates
Abstract Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are membrane‐spanning lipids synthesized by bacteria in numerous substrates. The degree of methylation of the five methyl brGDGTs in both soils and lake sediments, described by the MBT′5Me index, is empirically related to surface atmospheric temperature.

Archaeal and bacterial tetraether lipids in tropical ponds with contrasted salinity (Guadeloupe, French West Indies): Implications for tetraether-based environmental proxies [PDF]
International audienceThe occurrence and distribution of archaeal and bacterial glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether lipids (GDGTs) in continental saline environments have been rarely investigated.

ABSTRACT The microbially mediated replacement of sulfate‐bearing evaporites by authigenic carbonate and native sulfur under anoxic conditions is poorly understood. Sulfur‐bearing carbonates from the Monte Palco ridge (Sicily) replacing Messinian gypsum were therefore studied to better characterize the involved microorganisms.
