Resumen del producto

This selective 2000 years, paleoclimate review expounds on a range of key issues appertaining to Mexico’s Gulf of California (GC). Many of these issues are unresolved and in some cases are controversial in nature. This chapter will explore the following areas: (1) signicant climate variation involving differing tim- escales ranging from interannual, to centennial, to millennial; (2) processes respon- sible for the sedimentation cycle; (3) assessing the delity of Alfonso Basin’s siliceous phytoplankton record through linkage with integrated water–vertical set- tling studies, in that paleoclimate proxies are one of the most relevant and important tools utilized in reconstructions of (paleo)temperature and primary production; and (4) examine some global surface hydrological and climate processes and the con- nections to anthropogenic changes that can structure marine records recovered from marginal environments. Additionally, brief highlights from several areas under investigation will be presented, which have the potential to further an understanding of the role that temporal changes in export production may have played on carbon sequestration and how the resultant effects might have signicantly affected climate variations.
