Age models and foraminifera assemblages from sediment profiles of the North Atlantic
Based on foraminiferal transfer-functions, the distribution patterns of early Holocene sea- surface temperatures (SST) were studied, using the information from 154 deep-sea sediment cores (92 Atlantic, 62 Indian Ocean and Western Pacific). For our reconstruction, we employed a uniform high-resolutio...

Based on foraminiferal transfer-functions, the distribution patterns of early Holocene sea- surface temperatures (SST) were studied, using the information from 154 deep-sea sediment cores (92 Atlantic, 62 Indian Ocean and Western Pacific). For our reconstruction, we employed a uniform high-resolution, AMS 14C-calibrated d18O-chronology, converted to a calendar timescale, and the new SIMMAX-Transfer-Technique in the Atlantic Oceans (Pflaumann et al. in press). The short-term SST fluctuations during the last 30,000 years are not directly related to the relatively slow changes in insolation during this period, reaching maximum seasonal deviations from modern values at approximaterly 11,000 years B.P. Although seasonal changes in solar radiation must have triggered global warming to the modern, interglacial mode, there is little evidence for linear warming and heat transport by ocean currents. The SIMMAX-temperature estimates indicate an early and rapid warming in the Equatorial Atlantic, as well as in the eastern North Atlantic, where modern SSTs were reached for a short time between 20,000 to 16,000 kalendar-years B.P. On a core transect crossing the Island-Faroer Ridge, the history of high-latitude warming along the eastern margins of the big North Atlantic gyres was reconstructed.
