Abstract The California Current has influenced the primary productivity along the California margin, which plays a significant role in global carbon cycles. Although previous studies have explored the response of the California Current to climate change since the Pliocene, comparatively little is known about that during the Middle and Late Miocene when the paleoclimate changed significantly. Here, we present variations of the California Current based on new data of radiolarian fossil assemblages integrated with previously published data from the Middle to Late Miocene, and show that the California Current was strengthened from 12.3 to 10.5 Ma, 9.0 to 8.2 Ma, and 7.2 to 6.9 Ma at ODP Site 1021. The biogenic opal declined during periods of increased strength of the California Current from the Middle to Late Miocene at Site 1021 in offshore area. These data suggest that the biogenic opal decreased at Site 1021 in offshore area due to the deep nutricline depth by the strengthened California Current. R-mode cluster analyses divided into three major assemblages; surface/warm, cool/surface to thermocline, and intermediate-deep water taxa. The pronounced faunal changes of radiolarian assemblages to the dominance of intermediate-deep water taxa might reflect an initiation of the modern-type California Current system since ca. 10.5 Ma in the early Late Miocene due to the tectonic changes (e.g. partial closing of tropical gateways and uplift of the Himalaya and the Rocky Mountains) and/or significant high latitude cooling.

从放射虫组合推断出的中新世中期至晚中新世北太平洋东部副热带环流(加利福尼亚洋流系统)的变化

摘要 加州洋流影响了加州边缘的初级生产力,在全球碳循环中发挥着重要作用。虽然之前的研究探索了上新世以来加州洋流对气候变化的响应,但对中新世中晚期古气候发生显着变化的情况知之甚少。在这里,我们根据放射虫化石组合的新数据与先前公布的中新世晚期数据相结合,展示了加利福尼亚海流的变化,并表明加利福尼亚海流从 12.3 到 10.5 Ma、9.0 到 8.2 Ma 和 7.2 加强在 ODP 站点 1021 处降至 6.9 Ma。在离岸区域的站点 1021 中,在加利福尼亚洋流从中到中新世晚期强度增加期间,生物蛋白石下降。这些数据表明,由于加利福尼亚洋流增强导致深海营养线深度,近海区域 Site 1021 的生物蛋白石减少。R 模式聚类分析分为三个主要组合;地表/暖、冷/地表到温跃层和中深水类群。放射虫组合的显着动物群变化对中深水类群的主导地位可能反映了自约 10 年代以来现代型加利福尼亚洋流系统的开始。由于构造变化(例如热带通道的部分关闭和喜马拉雅山和落基山脉的抬升)和/或显着的高纬度冷却,中新世早期的 10.5 Ma。R 模式聚类分析分为三个主要组合;地表/暖、冷/地表到温跃层和中深水类群。放射虫组合的显着动物群变化对中深水分类群的主导地位可能反映了自约 10 年代以来现代型加利福尼亚洋流系统的开始。由于构造变化(例如热带通道的部分关闭和喜马拉雅山和落基山脉的抬升)和/或显着的高纬度冷却,中新世早期的 10.5 Ma。R 模式聚类分析分为三个主要组合;地表/暖、冷/地表到温跃层和中深水类群。放射虫组合的显着动物群变化对中深水类群的主导地位可能反映了自约 10 年代以来现代型加利福尼亚洋流系统的开始。由于构造变化(例如热带通道的部分关闭和喜马拉雅山和落基山脉的抬升)和/或显着的高纬度冷却,中新世早期的 10.5 Ma。
