Results from IODP Leg 306: Long-term cooling trend in North Atlantic sea-surface temperatures during the last 5 Ma (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

The study presents results from IODP Leg 306, revealing a long-term cooling trend in North Atlantic sea-surface temperatures (SST) over the last 5 million years. Utilizing high-resolution U k ' 37 records from IODP Site U1313, the findings show that significant cooling began in the Early Pliocene around 4.1 Ma, earlier than previously documented. The research highlights the role of increased Arctic water presence during glacial periods and its implications for understanding historical climate changes.
