Surface changes in the North Atlantic meridional overturning
circulation during the last millennium.
Nature Communications, Published 12 Jun 2012.
DOI: 10.1038/ncomms1901
Despite numerous investigations, the dynamical origins of the Medieval
Climate Anomaly and the Little Ice Age remain uncertain. A major
unresolved issue relating to internal climate dynamics is the mode
and tempo of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation variability,
and the significance of decadal-to-centennial scale changes in Atlantic
meridional overturning circulation strength in regulating the climate
of the last millennium. Here we use the time-constrained high-resolution
local radiocarbon reservoir age offset derived from an absolutely dated
annually resolved shell chronology spanning the past 1,350 years,
to reconstruct changes in surface ocean circulation and climate.
The water mass tracer data presented here from the North Icelandic
shelf, combined with previously published data from the Arctic
and subtropical Atlantic, show that surface Atlantic meridional
overturning circulation dynamics likely amplified the relatively warm
conditions during the Medieval Climate Anomaly and the relatively cool
conditions during the Little Ice Age within the North Atlantic sector.
STUDY NOTES: Raw measurements of increment widths from shells of the bivalve Arctica islandica; absolute dates of birth and death derived by crossdating; chronologies derived from a mean value function of the detrended increment widths, and supplementary data associated with the chronologies and presented in the paper.
