A preliminary examination was made for ice core chronology by two signals: one electric conductivity peaks measured in the home laboratory and the other field observation results obtained by JARE-36 party on the deeper part of the core. The electric conductivity peak analyses suggest the same 5 volcanic eruptions, in 1464 AD, 1259 AD, 865 AD, 639 AD and 346 BC, reported for the ice core of Byrd Camp, Antarctica. Field observations for ECM and crystal size distributions suggest that the period 374 m depth level corresponds to the end of Wisconsin ice period The results suggest that accumulation rate at Dome Fuji Station is between 2.5 and 3.O cm of water equivalent/year, and the end of Wisconsin-Holocene Transition will be found between depths of 340 and 400 m. The depth-age curves for the core at Dome Fuji Station are obtained from the surface (at present) to 400 m (at 12000 years BP). #------------------ # Publication # Authors: Kenji Kawamura, Frédéric Parrenin, Lorraine Lisiecki, Ryu Uemura, Françoise Vimeux, Jeffrey P.

The timing of climate change in the Southern Hemisphere at glacial-interglacial transitions (which are known as terminations) relative to variations in summer insolation in the Northern Hemisphere is an important test of this hypothesis. So far, it has only been possible to apply this test to the most recent termination, because the dating uncertainty associated with older terminations is too large to allow phase relationships to be determined. Here we present a new chronology of Antarctic climate change over the past 360,000 years that is based on the ratio of oxygen to nitrogen molecules in air trapped in the Dome Fuji and Vostok ice cores. This ratio is a proxy for local summer insolation, and thus allows the chronology to be constructed by orbital tuning without the need to assume a lag between a climate record and an orbital parameter. The accuracy of the chronology allows us to examine the phase relationships between climate records from the ice cores and changes in insolation. Our results indicate that orbital-scale Antarctic climate change lags Northern Hemisphere insolation by a few millennia, and that the increases in Antarctic temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration during the last four terminations occurred within the rising phase of Northern Hemisphere summer insolation. These results support the Milankovitch theory that Northern Hemisphere summer insolation triggered the last four deglaciations. #------------------ # Publication # Authors: Makoto Igarashi, Yoichi Nakai, Yuko Motizuki, Kazuya Takahashi, Hideaki Motoyama, Kazuo Makishima # Published_Date_or_Year: 2011-12-01 # Published_Title: Dating of the Dome Fuji shallow ice core based on a record of volcanic eruptions from AD 1260 to AD 2001 # Journal_Name: Polar Science # Volume: 5 # Edition: # Issue: 4 # Pages: 411-420 # Report_Number: # DOI: 10.1016/j.polar.2011.08.001 # Online_Resource: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1873965211000673 # Full_Citation: # Abstract: We measured the concentration of non-sea-salt sulfate (nssSO4 2-) in the Dome Fuji shallow ice core (Antarctica) from the surface to 40 m depth with the aim of dating the core with reference to the record of volcanic eruptions. Three huge spikes related to large-scale volcanic eruptions were detected at depths of 12.5, 29.9, and 38.8 m, correlated to the eruptions of Tambora (AD 1815), Kuwae (AD 1452) and an unknown event (AD 1259), respectively. We identified another nine (nssSO4 2-) spikes related to accurately dated eruption events. The shallow ice core was dated from AD 1260 to AD 2001 based on these 12 eruption events and the assumption of constant annual snow accumulation in the periods between eruption events. The results yield a maximum correction of ~20 years compared with the dating proposed in a previous study. The annual accumulation varied within ±~15% of the average water equivalent value over the study period (25.5 mm). #------------------ # Publication # Authors: Y. Motizuki, Y. Nakai, K. Takahashi, M.

We then applied volcanic signature matching to transfer the B32 chronology constructed by annual layer counting to a portion of the DF01 core for which annual layer counting was difficult because of the low precipitation rate. Matching was done by careful comparison of non-sea-salt sulfate (nssSO42-) data, which have a temporal resolution of about 1 yr, between the DF01 and B32 cores. The newly obtained chronology is called DFS1 (Dome Fuji Shallow ice core 1). In total, 31 volcanic eruptions were synchronized from AD 1900 back to AD 187, the earliest volcanic eruption date in the B32 core. The mean accumulation rate between synchronized volcanic horizons of the Dome Fuji core relative to rates at the B32 core drilling site did not differ significantly between these dates, increasing our confidence in this matching approach. We also used the B32-correlated EDML1/EDC3 chronology obtained from the top part of the EPICA Dronning Maud Land (DML) deep ice core to date a portion of the DF01 core. This new chronology, called DFS2 (Dome Fuji Shallow ice core 2), uses the correlations between B32 and EDML1/EDC3 ages to date the DF01 core from AD 1900 back to AD 199; moreover, four volcanic eruption dates from the EDML1/EDC3 chronology were used to date the interval from AD 199 back to AD 1. Because the EDML1/EDC3 ages were determined by adopting the B32 chronology back to AD 1170, DFS1 and DFS2 dates are identical between AD 1170 and 1900. These two methods enabled us to obtain a detailed chronology of the DF01 core, in particular the part before the last millennium, which has been difficult before this. We also present the absolute mean accumulation rates at Dome Fuji between AD 1 and 1900, based on the DFS1 and DFS2 chronologies. #------------------ # Funding_Agency # Funding_Agency_Name: Funding Program for Next Generation World-Leading Researchers # Grant: GR098 #------------------ # Funding_Agency # Funding_Agency_Name: Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) # Grant: 22244015 #------------------ # Site_Information # Site_Name: Dome Fuji # Location: Antarctica # Country: # Northernmost_Latitude: -77.3169 # Southernmost_Latitude: -77.3169 # Easternmost_Longitude: 39.7033 # Westernmost_Longitude: 39.7033 # Elevation: 3810 m #------------------ # Data_Collection # Collection_Name: DF93d18O # Earliest_Year: 424 # Most_Recent_Year: 1467 # Time_Unit: CE # Core_Length: 40.50m (from 28.78m-depth to 69.28m-depth) # Notes: Mean annual snow accumulation rate (27.3kgm-2); mean annual site temperature (-54.8 degC) #------------------ # Chronology: # This chronology is based on volcanic tie points of DF1993 core (Watanabe et al. 1997, Igarashi et al. 2011, Motizuki et al. 2014). # Three clear ECM peaks was assigned to Ant2k volcanic event peak date.
