Geological records from the Antarctic margin offer direct evidence of environmental variability at high southern latitudes and provide insight regarding ice sheet sensitivity to past climate change. The early to mid-Miocene (23-14 Mya) is a compelling interval to study as global temperatures and atmospheric CO2 concentrations were similar to those projected for coming centuries. Importantly, this time interval includes the Miocene Climatic Optimum, a period of global warmth during which average surface temperatures were 3-4 °C higher than today. Miocene sediments in the ANDRILL-2A drill core from the Western Ross Sea, Antarctica, indicate that the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) was highly variable through this key time interval. A multiproxy dataset derived from the core identifies four distinct environmental motifs based on changes in sedimentary facies, fossil assemblages, geochemistry, and paleotemperature. Four major disconformities in the drill core coincide with regional seismic discontinuities and reflect transient expansion of grounded ice across the Ross Sea. They correlate with major positive shifts in benthic oxygen isotope records and generally coincide with intervals when atmospheric CO2 concentrations were at or below preindustrial levels (∼280 ppm). Five intervals reflect ice sheet minima and air temperatures warm enough for substantial ice mass loss during episodes of high (∼500 ppm) atmospheric CO2 These new drill core data and associated ice sheet modeling experiments indicate that polar climate and the AIS were highly sensitive to relatively small changes in atmospheric CO2 during the early to mid-Miocene.

Funder: NZ Federation of Graduate Women, Funder: University of Otago; Id: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/100008247, The oldest‐known rocks of the eroded Dunedin Volcano (DV), New Zealand, active 16.0–11.0 Ma, were emplaced by penecontemporaneous explosive eruptions and intrusions of magmas with a remarkable range of compositions, including basanite, alkali basalt, trachyte and phonolite. The compositional diversity of magmas emplaced in rapid succession during the earliest development of the volcano signify the existence of a complex magmatic system and highly evolved magmas, typical of those attributed to mature magmatic systems; here it developed in concert with the volcano's surface eruptions. We infer that multiple deep and shallow reservoirs were suddenly tapped as volcanism commenced. DV repeatedly erupted the same range of magmas over 5 Myr, suggests that these distributed reservoirs failed to significantly integrate through millions of years of slow volcano growth.

- Abstract
The West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) presently holds enough ice to raise global sea level by 4.3 m if completely melted. The unknown response of the WAIS to future warming remains a significant challenge for numerical models in quantifying predictions of future sea level rise. Sea level rise is one of the clearest planet-wide signals of human-induced climate change. The Sensitivity of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to a Warming of 2 ∘C (SWAIS 2C) Project aims to understand past and current drivers and thresholds of WAIS dynamics to improve projections of the rate and size of ice sheet changes under a range of elevated greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere as well as the associated average global temperature scenarios to and beyond the +2 ∘C target of the Paris Climate Agreement. Despite efforts through previous land and ship-based drilling on and along the Antarctic margin, unequivocal evidence of major WAIS retreat or collapse and its causes has remained elusive. To evaluate and plan for the interdisciplinary scientific opportunities and engineering challenges that an International Continental Drilling Program (ICDP) project along the Siple coast near the grounding zone of the WAIS could offer (Fig. 1), researchers, engineers, and logistics providers representing 10 countries held a virtual workshop in October 2020. This international partnership comprised of geologists, glaciologists, oceanographers, geophysicists, microbiologists, climate and ice sheet modelers, and engineers outlined specific research objectives and logistical challenges associated with the recovery of Neogene and Quaternary geological records from the West Antarctic interior adjacent to the Kamb Ice Stream and at Crary Ice Rise. New geophysical surveys at these locations have identified drilling targets in which new drilling technologies will allow for the recovery of up to 200 m of sediments beneath the ice sheet. Sub-ice-shelf records have so far proven difficult to obtain but are critical to better constrain marine ice sheet sensitivity to past and future increases in global mean surface temperature up to 2 ∘C above pre-industrial levels. Thus, the scientific and technological advances developed through this program will enable us to test whether WAIS collapsed during past intervals of warmth and determine its sensitivity to a +2 ∘C global warming threshold (UNFCCC, 2015).

- Abstract
Throughout coastal Antarctica, ice shelves separate oceanic waters from sunlight by hundreds of meters of ice. Historical studies have detected activity of nitrifying microorganisms in oceanic cavities below permanent ice shelves. However, little is known about the microbial composition and pathways that mediate these activities. In this study, we profiled the microbial communities beneath the Ross Ice Shelf using a multi-omics approach. Overall, beneath-shelf microorganisms are of comparable abundance and diversity, though distinct composition, relative to those in the open meso- and bathypelagic ocean. Production of new organic carbon is likely driven by aerobic lithoautotrophic archaea and bacteria that can use ammonium, nitrite, and sulfur compounds as electron donors. Also enriched were aerobic organoheterotrophic bacteria capable of degrading complex organic carbon substrates, likely derived from in situ fixed carbon and potentially refractory organic matter laterally advected by the below-shelf waters. Altogether, these findings uncover a taxonomically distinct microbial community potentially adapted to a highly oligotrophic marine environment and suggest that ocean cavity waters are primarily chemosynthetically-driven systems

- Abstract
Ocean Sciences Meeting (OSM), 16-21 February 2020, San Diego, CA, USA, In Antarctica, ice shelves fringe 75% of the coastline and cover >1.5 million km2, creating distinct and largely unexplored marine environments. To uncover the biogeochemical role of under-ice shelf ecosystems and to predict how they might respond to future ice-shelf collapse, it is fundamental to identify and characterize those communities and their functioning. The Ross Ice Shelf (RIS), the largest ice shelf in the world, floats atop an 54,000 km3ocean cavity. The only previous study in which the seawater under the RIS was biogeochemically studied (J9 borehole) preceded the emergence of modern, molecular research approaches. Thus, the phylogenetic and functional diversity of microorganisms under RIS remains unknown. Four decades later, we used hot water to drill through ca. 400 m of ice shelf in order to examine the structure and function of this globally important environment. We combined rate measurements and rRNA amplicon sequencing with multi-omics (i.e., single cell genomics, meta-genomic, -transcriptomics and -proteomics). This revealed an active and diverse microbial ecosystem dominated by chemolithoautotrophy, where energy is obtained from a wide range of inorganic sources. Chemolithoautotrophy supported the heterotrophic community and food webs under the RIS, hence representing a system driven by dark carbon dioxide fixation, making the RIS presumably the largest chemolithotrophic system in the global ocean

- Abstract
9th SCAR Open Science Conference and XXXVI SCAR Meetings, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 31 July - 11 August 2020, [EN] Antarctic ice sheet dynamics remain the largest uncertainty in projections of future sea level rise. The SWAIS 2C Project is a new international effort that aims to understand past and current drivers and thresholds of WAIS dynamics to improve projections of the rate and size of ice sheet changes under a range of elevated greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere and associated average global temperature scenarios to and beyond the 2°C target of the Paris Climate Agreement. A primary goal of SWAIS 2C is to acquire geological records of WAIS extent from past intervals of warmth including Quaternary super-interglacials. Previous drilling by the Deep-Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), Ocean Drilling Program (ODP), and recent International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP), MeBO, and ANDRILL recovered stratigraphic records of past ice sheet behaviour across the mid to outer continental shelf. Similarly, the response of WAIS to past warmer-than present climates has been inferred from far-field globally-integrated records of sea level and ocean δ18O. We will utilize new drilling technology to obtain a sedimentary history of past ice sheet dynamics at two locations (Kamb Ice Stream and Crary Ice Rise) along the Siple Coast in the West Antarctic interior. Geological records from this location have proven difficult to obtain but are critical to better constrain marine ice sheet sensitivity to past and future increases in global mean temperature up to 2°C

- Abstract
16 Symposium of Aquatic Microbial Ecology (SAME16), “From Boat to Bench”- Integrating field observation with lab experiments, 1-6 September 2019, Potsdam, Germany.-- 1 page, The ocean under the Ross Ice Shelf (RIS) in Antarctica is one of the least explored environments on Earth. This remote marine environment, in total darkness under hundreds of meters of ice, touched only by slow deep ocean currents, is as unexplored as Mars. Microbes are the engines that drive biogeochemical cycles and the microbes under Antarctica’s ice sheets may play a crucial role in remineralizing nutrients to the Southern Ocean. Thus, better knowledge of the roles that these microbes play in the transformation of organic matter will lead to a better understanding of the processes that control energy flow in the Southern Ocean, as well as the cycling of compounds influencing climate change. Still, we do not know which microbes live below the RIS, let alone what functions they perform. The only study in which the seawater under the RIS was studied (at the J9 borehole in 1977/78), revealed the presence of microbes together with a rich community of invertebrates and fish far away from the open ocean. However, the technology required to investigate microbial diversity was not available at that time. Forty years later, we drilled through ca. 400 m of ice shelf to reveal, for the first time, the actual structure and function of the RIS ocean microbial ecosystem. We combined rate measurements with amplicon sequencing to determine the abundance, heterotrophic activity, community composition and diversity of microbes under the RIS, together with multi-omics (metagenomic, metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics) and single amplified genomes (SAGs) to obtain a full analysis of their metabolic potential and actual gene expression and protein production. Collectively, our results revealed the mechanism supporting an active and diverse microbial ecosystem, fueled by chemolithoautotrophy and capable of obtaining their energy from a wide range of different organic and inorganic sources

Quaternary processes and environmental changes are often difficult to assess in remote subantarctic islands due to high surface erosion rates and overprinting of sedimentary products in locations that can be a challenge to access. We present a set of high-resolution, multichannel seismic lines and complementary multibeam bathymetry collected off the eastern (leeward) side of the subantarctic Auckland Islands, about 465 km south of New Zealand's South Island. These data constrain the erosive and depositional history of the island group, and they reveal an extensive system of sediment-filled valleys that extend offshore to depths that exceed glacial low-stand sea level. Although shallow, marine, U-shaped valleys and moraines are imaged, the rugged offshore geomorphology of the paleovalley floors and the stratigraphy of infill sediments suggests that the valley floors were shaped by submarine fluvial erosion, and subsequently filled by lacustrine, fjord, and fluvial sedimentary processes.

- Abstract
Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and climate are regulated on geological timescales by the balance between carbon input from volcanic and metamorphic outgassing and its removal by weathering feedbacks; these feedbacks involve the erosion of silicate rocks and organic-carbon-bearing rocks. The integrated effect of these processes is reflected in the calcium carbonate compensation depth, which is the oceanic depth at which calcium carbonate is dissolved. Here we present a carbonate accumulation record that covers the past 53 million years from a depth transect in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. The carbonate compensation depth tracks long-term ocean cooling, deepening from 3.0-3.5 kilometres during the early Cenozoic (approximately 55 million years ago) to 4.6 kilometres at present, consistent with an overall Cenozoic increase in weathering. We find large superimposed fluctuations in carbonate compensation depth during the middle and late Eocene. Using Earth system models, we identify changes in weathering and the mode of organic-carbon delivery as two key processes to explain these large-scale Eocene fluctuations of the carbonate compensation depth., AuthorCount:65

Palaeomagnetic and rock magnetic measurements on sediment cores from Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Sites U1331 and U1332 in the equatorial Pacific are used to examine changes in the relative palaeointensity (RPI) of the geomagnetic field during the Oligocene and Eocene. The main magnetic carrier of these sediments is interpreted to be partially oxidized magnetite, which varies in concentration by less than about a factor of six along the stratigraphic section. In some cases, these variations occur as abrupt changes or fluctuations. The largest change in lithology and rock magnetic properties occurs across the Eocene/Oligocene (E/O) boundary, with the radiolarian-rich late Eocene sediments having higher magnetic concentration than the nannofossil-rich early Oligocene sediments. RPI estimates computed from ratios of the natural remanent magnetization to anhysteretic remanent magnetization and isothermal remanent magnetization appear to be insignificantly influenced by the lithologic differences within either the Oligocene or Eocene but are significantly influenced by the differences between the Eocene and Oligocene sediments. We thus estimate the RPI separately for the Oligocene and Eocene intervals. For both sites, the RPI records always have minima at chron boundaries. The records also show large fluctuations between highs and lows even during stable polarity periods. These features are similar to what has been observed for RPI records spanning the past 3 Myr, suggesting persistent geomagnetic field behaviour since the Eocene. The two new records show consistent variation with the RPI reported from Site U1333, which is in the vicinity of Sites U1331 and U1332. The RPI variations during the Oligocene at Site U1332 are also generally consistent with those reported from the South Atlantic. One interesting feature is that the RPI is consistently high throughout most of Chron C12r (31.021–33.232 Ma). In addition, Cryptochron C18n.1n-1, which is characterized by common marked intensity lows in the RPI records, is observed at the age of 39.094–39.114 Ma for Site U1331 and 38.958–38.983 Ma for Site U1332.

We present new environmental magnetic data from the Southwest Pacific spanning the middle Miocene climatic transition (circa 16.2–13.5 Ma), which indicate a dynamic South Pacific Oceanic system with two periods of increasing and decreasing current strength in response to orbitally paced ice volume variations. A magneto-biostratigraphic age model provides age control for magnetic susceptibility and Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility data from a mudstone succession in Western Southland, New Zealand. Magnetic susceptibility in this succession reflects changes in carbonate content, which we suggest is proxy for ocean productivity or sea level variations and therefore a proxy for ice volume changes. Timeseries analyses of the magnetic susceptibility record reveals eccentricity and obliquity paced ocean productivity cycles. Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility data carry a record of deep current strength in response to ice volume changes. Our data show that periods of increased ice volume resulted in the northward migration of erosive currents in this sector of the Pacific and that large, dynamic ice sheets may have persisted in Antarctic during the middle Miocene climatic optimum.

This study describes 16 well-dated, terrestrial glacial sedimentary cycles deposited during astronomically paced climate cycles from the termination of the Miocene Climatic Optimum (MCO) through the middle Miocene Climate Transition (MMCT) (15.1-13.8 Ma) in the Friis Hills, Transantarctic Mountains, Antarctica. Three locations were continuously cored (79% recovery) to a maximum depth of 50.48 m through a succession of interbedded till sheets and fossil-bearing, fluvio-lacustrine sediments. A composite chronostratigraphic framework is presented for the cores based on the previous mapping, a seismic refraction survey that defines basin geometry, and a new, integrated age model based on paleomagnetic stratigraphy that is constrained by radioisotopic 40Ar/39Ar numeric ages on two newly identified silicic tephra. The paleoecologic and sedimentologic characteristics of organic-rich lithologies are relatively consistent up-section, which implies that successively younger interglacial deposits during the MMCT represented broadly similar environmental and climatic conditions. During these interglacials, the Friis Hills hinterland was likely ice-free. Major disconformities in the section suggest a transition to colder climates, and after ca. 14.6 Ma, thicker, more extensive and erosive ice cover occurred across the Friis Hills during glacial episodes. Diamictites in the upper three cycles suggest that climate cooled and became drier after ca. 14.2 Ma. However, cyclical retreat of the ice and a return to warm climate conditions during interglacials continued through ca. 13.9 Ma. These direct records reflect a highly variable East Antarctic Ice Sheet margin but show that the ice margin became progressively more extensive during successive glacial intervals, which is consistent with a cooling trend toward more glacial values in the far-field benthic foraminifera δ18O proxy ice volume and temperature record. Age constraints show that glacial-interglacial variability at the terrestrial margin of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet was primarily paced by astronomical precession (~23 k.y.) through the onset of the MMCT (15-14.7 Ma). Precession-driven cycles are modulated by short-period (~100 k.y.) eccentricity cycles. Intervals of maximum eccentricity (high seasonality) coincide with sedimentary cycles comprising thin diamictites and relatively thick interglacial sandstone and mudstone units. Intervals of minimum eccentricity (low seasonality) coincide with sedimentary cycles comprising thick diamictites and relatively thin interglacial sedimentary deposits. Major disconformities in the Friis Hills succession that span more than ~100 k.y. reflect episodes of expansion of erosive ice across, and well beyond, the Transantarctic Mountains and coincide with nodes in eccentricity (~400 k.y.). These relationships suggest that during relatively warm intervals in the middle Miocene, the East Antarctic Ice Sheet expanded and contracted over 100 k.y. cycles, while its margins continued to fluctuate at higher (~23 k.y.) frequency. After 14.5 Ma, obliquity is the dominant frequency in δ18O records, marking a period during which large regions of the Antarctic Ice Sheet grounded in marine environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
