Hundreds of coral paleoclimate records have been developed over the past several
decades, significantly extending the instrumental record and improving our understanding of …

The geomorphology and morphostratigraphy of numerous worldwide sites reveal the
relative movements of sea level during the peak of the Last Interglaciation (Marine Isotope …

The IntCal04 and Marine04 radiocarbon calibration curves have been updated from 12 cal
kBP (cal kBP is here defined as thousands of calibrated years before AD 1950), and …

Past sea-level records provide invaluable information about the response of ice sheets to
climate forcing. Some such records suggest that the last deglaciation was punctuated by a …

During the last interglacial period,~ 125,000 years ago, sea level was at least several meters
higher than at present, with substantial variability observed for peak sea level at …

The isotopic composition of U in nature is generally assumed to be invariant. Here, we report
variations of the 238U/235U isotope ratio in natural samples (basalts, granites, seawater …

Uranium is the heaviest naturally occurring element and isotope fractionation between 235U
and 238U is not normally considered significant given the small∼ 1% difference in mass. It …

The extent to which climate change causes significant societal disruption remains
controversial. An important example is the decline of the Akkadian Empire in northern …

The concentration of 238U in seawater is an important parameter required for applications of
uranium decay-series radionuclides used to understand particle export and cycling in …

There is increasing evidence indicating that syndepositional redistribution of sediment on
the seafloor by bottom currents is common and can significantly affect sediment mass …
