Holocene Rapid Climate Change: Pervasive Millennial-Scale Climate Variability across the North Atlantic (2023)
Journal Article
Austin, W., Howe, J., Cage, A., & Smeaton, C. (2023). Holocene Rapid Climate Change: Pervasive Millennial-Scale Climate Variability across the North Atlantic. https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-egu23-16352

Rapid climate change (RCC) during the Holocene, particularly post-dating the demise of large Northern Hemisphere ice sheets after 8000 cal. yr BP, is a global phenomenon and is almost certainly driven by long-term changes in insolation, upon which so...

Belt, S., Smik, L., Vogel, H., Peck, V., Armbrecht, L., Cage, A., …Raymo, M. (2022). Antiphased dust deposition and productivity in the Antarctic Zone over 1.5 million years. Nature communications, 2044 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-29642-5

The Southern Ocean paleoceanography provides key insights into how iron fertilization and oceanic productivity developed through Pleistocene ice-ages and their role in influencing the carbon cycle. We report a high-resolution record of dust depositio... Read More about Antiphased dust deposition and productivity in the Antarctic Zone over 1.5 million years..

The evolution of a coastal carbon store over the last millennium (2021)
Journal Article

Fjord sediments are recognized as hotspots for the burial and storage of organic carbon, yet little is known about the long-term drivers of significant terrestrial organic carbon (OC) transfers into these coastal carbon stores. The mid-latitude fjord... Read More about The evolution of a coastal carbon store over the last millennium.

Comparative analysis of six common foraminiferal species of the genera Cassidulina, Paracassidulina, and Islandiella from the Arctic–North Atlantic domain (2021)
Journal Article
Pieńkowski, A., Jennings, A., Knudsen, K., Seidenkrantz, M., & Cage, A. (2021). Comparative analysis of six common foraminiferal species of the genera Cassidulina, Paracassidulina, and Islandiella from the Arctic–North Atlantic domain. Journal of Micropalaeontology, 37 - 60. https://doi.org/10.5194/jm-40-37-2021

Morphologically similar benthic foraminiferal taxa can be difficult to separate. Aside from causing issues in taxonomy, incorrect identifications complicate our understanding of species-specific ecological preferences and result in flawed palaeoenvir...

Southern Ocean carbon sink enhanced by sea-ice feedbacks at the Antarctic Cold Reversal (2020)
Journal Article

The Southern Ocean occupies some 14% of the planet’s surface and plays a fundamental role in the global carbon cycle and climate. It provides a direct connection to the deep ocean carbon reservoir through biogeochemical processes that include surface...
