The nature of deep overturning and reconfigurations of the silicon cycle across the last deglaciation

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: M. Dumont from the SchoolUniversity of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK have published the paper: The nature of deep overturning and reconfigurations of the silicon cycle across the last deglaciation, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
• what: The authors demonstrate that greater input of DSi to the Southern Ocean increased the transport of DSi from the Southern Ocean to low latitudes, fertilizing diatom production there. The authors propose that the poor ventilation and greater stratification of the ocean during glacial periods decoupled DSi and carbon distributions leading to an accumulation of DSi in the deep . . .
