Sea Surface temperatures of warm and cold seasons calculated from planktic foraminifera in sediment core MD97-2151
The South China Sea is the largest marginal sea of southeastern Asia, lying presently under the influences of the Western Pacific Warm Pool and Asian monsoon systems. Sediment cores from this area provide high-resolution records for interpreting millennial- to centennial-scales paleoclimatic changes...

The South China Sea is the largest marginal sea of southeastern Asia, lying presently under the influences of the Western Pacific Warm Pool and Asian monsoon systems. Sediment cores from this area provide high-resolution records for interpreting millennial- to centennial-scales paleoclimatic changes expressed in the western Pacific. Here we present results of high-resolution paleoceanographic data including planktic foraminifer fauna sea surface temperature (SST) anddepth of thermocline (DOT) estimates along with foraminifer stable isotopes, alkenone SST estimates analyzed froma core takenfrom the southern South China Sea (SCS) near Wan-An Shallow (IMAGES III 1997 cruise core MD97-2151). The intervals of the record presented here cover the past two glacial Terminations (centering at ab. 12,000 and 128,000 yrs B.P.). Our analyses of SST estimates by using planktic foraminifer transfer functions with paralleling measurements of alkenone SST methods all show events of rapid cooling reversals occurrring during the Termination I concurrent with the Younger Dryas (ab. 13-11 kyr B.P.), and Heinrich events reported previously from GISP2 ice core and North Atlantic core studies.
