TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new biomarker records of upper water column temperature ( and ) and primary productivity (chlorins and alkenones) from marine sediments at IODP Site U1475 on the Agulhas Plateau, near the Subtropical Front (STF) and within the agulhas retroflection pathway.

Using Generative Art to Convey Past and Future Climate Transitions.
TL;DR: In this article , a multimedia installation that incorporates geochemical records of glacial and interglacial transitions and model predictions for future anthropogenic warming to create an immersive experience for viewers, inviting them to engage with and reflect on subtle, nuanced differences between subsets of Earth's history.
Glacial Southern Ocean Expansion Recorded in Foraminifera‐Bound Nitrogen Isotopes From the Agulhas Plateau During the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition

TL;DR: In this article , foraminifera-bound nitrogen isotope values and polar planktic abundances from the Agulhas Plateau were used to show that increases in biogenic sediment accumulation coincide with northward migrations of the Subtropical Frontal Zone (STFZ) and elevated foraminifera-bound NOI values during MPT glacial episodes.
Insights from Fossil-Bound Nitrogen Isotopes in Diatoms, Foraminifera, and Corals.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors review the foundations and ground truthing for three important fossil-bound proxy types: diatoms, foraminifera, and corals, and highlight their utility with examples of highresolution evidence for anthropogenic inputs of nitrogen to the oceans, glacial-interglacial-scale assessments of nitrogen inventory change, and evidence for enhanced CO2 drawdown in the high-latitude ocean.
