14 We have two radioactive clocks in the same sample; 238 U U - 23 Th and Radiocarbon. This lets us solve the first order decay equation: N=N e -λ t for the initial amount of 14 C in the ocean where the coral grew. Similar calculation for Benthic- Planktonic Forams

20 Boron Isotopes allow for an estimate of paleo ph (which we now know is also pco2)
21 The lower cell degasses CO2 along with the whole atmosphere rise since the LGM Drake Passage SAZ (upper cell) Drake Passage Antarctic Zone (lower cell) The ph of the lower cell rises as it loses CO2 to the atm. Rae et al., unpublished
22 A focus on the deglaciation shows the upper cell is a compliment to the lower cell pco2 history Drake Passage SAZ (upper cell) ph drops abruptly at end of H1 when 2 cells merge for 1st time. Rae et al., unpublished
23 Some Concluding Thoughts 1. The LGM was separated into 2 distinct deep circulation cells. 2. The ventilation rate of the southern cell seems to have increased during the LGM, but not during the whole glacial period. 3. Deep-sea coral populations off of Tasmania feel the rapid climate changes seen in ice cores. 4. Nutrient utilization in both the Polar and Sub-Antarctic Zones increased at the LGM. 5. Phosphate concentrations (preformed?) dropped by ~2x at the LGM off of Tasmania in Intermediate waters. 6. The ph of the deep cell over the deglaciation reflects the degassing of respired CO2 back to the atmosphere, while the upper cell show centennial variability perhaps related to circulation changes.
