| We have identified millennial-scale variations in magnetic mineral diagenesis from Pacific Ocean sediments offshore of Japan that we correlate with changes in organic carbon burial that were likely driven by Asian monsoon fluctuations. The correlation was determined by identifying offsets between the positions of fossil diagenetic fronts and climatically induced variations in organic carbon burial inferred from magnetic and geochemical analyses. Episodes of intense monsoon activity and attendant sediment magnetic mineral diagenesis also appear to correlate with Heinrich events, which supports the existence of climatic telecommunications between Asia and the North Atlantic region. Several lines of evidence support our conclusions: (1) fluctuations in... |

| Magnetic mineral inclusions occur commonly within other larger mineral phases in igneous rocks and have been demonstrated to preserve important paleomagnetic signals. While the usefulness of magnetic inclusions in igneous rocks has been explored extensively, their presence in sediments has only been speculated upon. The contribution of magnetic inclusions to the magnetization of sediments, therefore, has been elusive. In this study, we use transmission electron microscope (TEM) and magnetic methods to demonstrate the widespread preservation of silicate-hosted magnetic inclusions in marine sedimentary settings. TEM analysis reveals detailed information about the microstructure, chemical composition, grain size, and spatial arrangement of nanoscale magnetic... |
