Previous studies have shown that radiocarbon activities (C-14) in the low-latitude, middepth Pacific and Indian Oceans were anomalously low during Heinrich Stadial 1 (HS1, similar to 17.8-14.6ka) and the Younger Dryas (YD, similar to 12.8-11.5ka), coincident with intervals of rising atmospheric CO2 concentration and declining atmospheric C-14. However, a full explanation of these events remains elusive due to sparse and sometimes conflicting data. Here we present new C-14 measurements on benthic and planktic foraminifera that, in combination with previously published measurements, enable us to reconstruct the C-14 depth gradient near Baja California. Vertical profiles were similar to present during the Last Glacial Maximum and BOlling/Allerod (14.6-12.8ka)... |
