Abstract
A high-resolution integrated study carried out in the central and south Tyrrhenian Sea have enabled identification of several climatic periods during the last two millennia. We focus on four shallow water marine records recovered with the R/V Urania at water depth of 93 and 118 meters (Gulf of Gaeta) and 103 meters (Gulf of Salerno). Planktonic foraminifera distribution combined with oxygen stable isotope data performed on planktonic foraminifer Globigerinoides ruber, illustrates four major environmental changes during the last 2000 years: Roman period / Dark Age transition; Dark Age / Medieval Climatic Anomaly transition; Medieval Climatic Anomaly / Little Ice Age transition and Little Ice Age / Industrial period transition.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
