The Mediterranean basin is sensitive to global sea-level changes and African monsoon
variability on orbital timescales. Both of these processes are thought to be important to the …

The Mediterranean Sea provides a major route for heat and freshwater loss from the North
Atlantic and thus is an important cause of the high density of Atlantic waters. In addition to …

Forty years after the image of the Mediterranean transformed into a giant salty lake was first
conceived, the fascinating history of the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) still arouses great …

Marine gateways play a critical role in the exchange of water, heat, salt and nutrients
between oceans and seas. As a result, changes in gateway geometry can significantly alter …

Our current understanding of ocean–atmosphere–cryosphere interactions at ice-age
terminations relies largely on assessments of the most recent (last) glacial–interglacial …

Several large and rapid changes in atmospheric temperature and the partial pressure of
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere—probably linked to changes in deep ocean circulation …

The last deglaciation, which marked the transition between the last glacial and present
interglacial periods, was punctuated by a series of rapid (centennial and decadal) climate …

Climate variability in the western Mediterranean is reconstructed for the last 4000 yr using
marine sediments recovered in the west Algerian-Balearic Basin, near the Alboran Basin …

Sortable silt particle-size data and stable isotope analyses from the Corsica Trough, western
Mediterranean Sea, provide a continuous palaeoceanographic record of the inflow …

A global Neogene cooling trend culminated~ 7 million years ago with the onset of
Greenland glaciation. Increased ocean-atmosphere interaction and low-to high-latitude …
