The influence of Indian Ocean atmospheric circulation on Warm Pool 
hydroclimate during the Holocene epoch.

  <Summary>
    <Abstract>Existing paleoclimate data suggest a complex evolution of hydroclimate 
within the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool (IPWP) during the Holocene epoch. 
Here we introduce a new leaf wax isotope record from Sulawesi, 
Indonesia and compare proxy water isotope data with ocean-atmosphere 
general circulation model (OAGCM) simulations to identify mechanisms 
influencing Holocene IPWP hydroclimate. Modeling simulations suggest 
that orbital forcing causes heterogenous changes in precipitation 
across the IPWP on a seasonal basis that may account for the 
differences in time-evolution of the proxy data at respective sites. 
Both the proxies and simulations suggest that precipitation 
variability during the September-November (SON) season is important 
for hydroclimate in Borneo. The preëminence of the SON season suggests 
that a seasonally lagged relationship between the Indian monsoon 
and Indian Ocean Walker circulation influences IPWP hydroclimatic 
variability during the Holocene. 
 
          STUDY NOTES: Hydrogen isotopic (dD) ratios of terrestrial higher plant 
leaf waxes (dDwax, C30 fatty acid) in marine sediments 
from southwest Sulawesi, Makassar Strait, Indonesia 
for the past 14,700 years. 

We measured the hydrogen isotopic composition of leaf waxes (dDwax) 
in marine sediment core BJ8-03-70GGC, located 12 km off the southwest 
shore of Sulawesi in the Makassar Strait. Thirteen radiocarbon dates 
constrain the depth- age model for core 70GGC. The age model is 
based on a linear interpolation of the depth-age relationship between 
calibrated dates with the additional assumption that the top of 
the core is equivalent to 0 yr BP. Core 70GGC was sampled every 
~100 years downcore, with somewhat higher resolution during the 
middle Holocene (near 4 ka) and the Younger Dryas chronozone 
(12.7-11.5 ka). dDwax analyses were conducted as previously 
described in Tierney et al. [2010], Paleoceanography. Briefly, 
freeze-dried sediments were extracted with a solvent mixture 
of dichloromethane:methanol (9:1,v/v) using an Accelerated Solvent 
Extractor. Leaf waxes were purified from the resulting total lipid 
extract via NH2 column chromatography, methylated with methanol 
of a known isotopic composition, and then further purified via silica 
gel chromatography. The C30 fatty acid was analyzed in triplicate 
for its hydrogen isotopic composition via gas chromatography-isotope 
ratio monitoring-mass spectrometry (GC-IR-MS), using a Thermo Delta 
XL mass spectrometer at Brown University. H2 standard gas calibrated 
to VSMOW was injected three times before and after the sample lipid 
peaks as an internal standard. In addition, an external fatty acid 
methyl ester (FAME) standard of known isotopic composition was run 
every nine injections to monitor drift. Isotopic values were 
corrected for the added methyl group. Results presented here 
are triplicate means, and average triplicate standard error 
was 0.7‰.
