The Astronomical Theory of Climate and the Age of the Brunhes-Matuyama Magnetic Reversal
EPSL ELSEVIER Earth and Planetary Science Letters 126 (1994) 91-108 The astronomical theory of climate and the age of the Brunhes-Matuyama magnetic reversal Franck C. Bassinot a,1, Laurent D. Labeyrie b, Edith Vincent a, Xavier Quidelleur c Nicholas J. Shackleton d, Yves Lancelot a a Laboratoire de Gdologie du Quaternaire, CNRS-Luminy, Case 907, 13288 Marseille cddex 09, France b Centre des Faibles Radioactivit&, CNRS/CEA, Avenue de la Terrasse, BP 1, 91198 Gif-sur-Yvette, France c Institut de Physique du Globe, Laboratoire de Pal~omagn&isme, 4 Place Jussieu, 75252 Paris c~dex 05, France d Department of Quaternary Research, The Godwin Laboratory, Free School Lane, Cambridge CB2 3RS, UK Received 3 November 1993; revision accepted 30 May 1994 Abstract Below oxygen isotope stage 16, the orbitally derived time-scale developed by Shackleton et al. [1] from ODP site 677 in the equatorial Pacific differs significantly from previous ones [e.g., 2-5], yielding estimated ages for the last Earth magnetic reversals that are 5-7% older than the K/Ar values [6-8] but are in good agreement with recent Ar/Ar dating [9-11]. These results suggest that in the lower Brunhes and upper Matuyama chronozones most deep-sea climatic records retrieved so far apparently missed or misinterpreted several oscillations predicted by the astronomical theory of climate. To test this hypothesis, we studied a high-resolution oxygen isotope record from giant piston core MD900963 (Maldives area, tropical Indian Ocean) in which precession-related oscillations in t~180 are particularly well expressed, owing to the superimposition of a local salinity signal on the global ice volume signal [12]. -

ISSN 0267-8179. Received 30 September 2003; Revised 2 February 2004; Accepted 17 February 2004 ABSTRACT: A detailed shoreline displacement curve documents the Younger Dryas transgression in western Norway. The relative sea-level rise was more than 9 m in an area which subsequently experienced an emergence of almost 60 m. The sea-level curve is based on the stratigraphy of six isolation basins with bedrock thresholds. Effort has been made to establish an accurate chronology using a calendar year time-scale by 14C wiggle matching and the use of time synchronic markers (the Vedde Ash Bed and the post-glacial rise in Betula (birch) pollen). The sea-level curve demonstrates that the Younger Dryas transgression started close to the Allerød–Younger Dryas transition and that the high stand was reached only 200 yr before the Younger Dryas–Holocene boundary. -

These cultures are characterized by particular artefact types, or the co-occurrence or specific relative frequencies of these. In north-eastern Europe, numerous cultures have been proposed on the basis of supposedly different tanged points. This practice of naming new cultural units based on these perceived differences has been repeatedly critiqued, but robust alternatives have rarely been offered. Here, we review the taxonomic landscape of Late Palaeolithic large tanged point cultures in eastern Europe as currently envisaged, which leads us to be cautious about the epistemological validity of many of the constituent groups. -

Guide for Authors
GUIDE TO MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION FOR THE JOURNAL OF VERTEBRATE PALEONTOLOGY Adherence to the Guide to Manuscript Preparation provided here is mandatory. Do not rely on older issues of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology (JVP) as a style guide. All manuscripts must be submitted electronically through the ManuscriptCentral/ScholarOne man- uscripts submission site at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jvp. For assistance with this process, please use the help tools provided through links at the web site. Note also that strict adherence to the fle-format, resolution, and size requirements for fgures is absolutely essential for fnal acceptance to JVP. Note also that JVP has stricter requirements for data sharing and open access to data than those posted on the journal web page, which are those imposed by the publishers, TAylor & Francis, on all their journals. MANUSCRIPTS Manuscript Categories The Journal publishes two categories of papers: Articles and Short Communications. Authors must indicate during submission in which category they wish their manuscript to be considered. The JVP no longer publishes book reviews. Book reviews should be submitted to the Society of Ver- tebrate Paleontology Newsletter. Monographs can be considered for publication as supplements to the Journal; consult the Mono- graphs Editor prior to submission. Articles—Manuscripts intended as Articles (papers of 6 or more printed pages in the Journal) must not exceed 100 pages of double-spaced typescript including references, tables, and appendices at US Let- ter (21.5 by 28.0 cm; 8.5 by 11.0 in) or A4 (21.0 by 29.7 cm) page size. Longer manuscripts, or ones with an unusually large number of fgures or tables, may be considered, but the Senior Editors must be consulted prior to submission. -

After more than a century of geological research, 1 Introduction the Cordilleran ice sheet of North America remains among the least understood in terms of its former extent, volume, and dynamics. Because of the mountainous topography on During the last glacial cycle, glaciers and ice caps of the which the ice sheet formed, geological studies have often had North American Cordillera have been more extensive than only local or regional relevance and shown such a complexity today. At the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), a continuous that ice-sheet-wide spatial reconstructions of advance and re- blanket of ice, the Cordilleran ice sheet (Dawson, 1888), treat patterns are lacking. Here we use a numerical ice sheet stretched from the Alaska Range in the north to the North model calibrated against field-based evidence to attempt a Cascades in the south (Fig.1).
