| Here we describe a chemical analysis technique for Ca, Fe, K, Sr, Ti, and S using a recently developed Micro-XRF analyzer (Micro-XRF) with a 100-mm resolution and an XRF whole-core scanner (XRF-S) with a 5-mm resolution for selected sediment sections from a continental margin sediment core. The Micro-XRF produces highly resolved element maps of individual sections, and the calculation of individual continuous element profiles is based on overlap measurements of successive sections. By means of discrete subsamples analyzed by ICP-OES, the two XRF data sets are successfully calibrated to provide quantitative profiles of Ca, Fe, K, Sr, and Ti. We discuss the advantages and limitations of both XRF techniques. A comparison of the two independent XRF data sets... |

| We present a new record of radiocarbon ages measured by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) on a deep-sea core collected off the Pakistan Margin. The C-14 ages measured on the planktonic foraminifera Globigerinoides ruber from core MD04-2876 define a high and stable sedimentation rate on the order of 50 cm/kyr over the last 50 kyr. The site is distant from the main upwelling zone of the western Arabian Sea where C-14 reservoir age is large and may be variable. Many independent proxies based on elemental analyses, mineralogy, biomarkers, isotopic proxies, and foraminiferal abundances show abrupt changes correlative with Dansgaard-Oeschger and Heinrich events. It is now common knowledge that these climatic events also affected the Arabian Sea during the last... |
