Indian Ocean Climate and an Absolute Chronology
over Dansgaard/Oeschger Events 9 to 13.
Science, Vol. 301, No. 5638, pp. 1365-1367,
5 September 2003. DOI: 10.1126/science.1086227
Oxygen-isotope ratios of a stalagmite from Socotra Island
in the Indian Ocean provide a record of changes in monsoon
precipitation and climate for the time period from 42 to 55
thousand years before the present. The pattern of precipitation
bears a striking resemblance to the oxygen-isotope record from
Greenland ice cores, with increased tropical precipitation
associated with warm periods in the high northern latitudes.
The largest change, at the onset of interstadial 12, occurred
very rapidly, in about 25 years. The chronology of the events
found in our record requires a reevaluation of previously
published time scales for climate events during this period.
STUDY NOTES: High resolution stalagmite oxygen isotope data from
Socotra Island in the Indian Ocean, providing a record
of changes in monsoon precipitation from 53 - 40 KYrBP,
Dansgaard/Oeschger Events 9 to 13.
The stable isotope time series published in Burns et al., 2003
was later revised based on a corrected chronology as explained
in Burns et al., Science, 2004. The data archived here are on
the revised chronology.
