Journal Article
Swann, G. E. A., Panizzo, V. N., Piccolroaz, S., Pashley, V., Horstwood, M., Roberts, S., …Mackay, A. W. (2020). Changing nutrient cycling in Lake Baikal, the world’s oldest lake. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 117(44), 27211-27217. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2013181117

Copyright © 2020 the Author(s). Published by PNAS. Lake Baikal, lying in a rift zone in southeastern Siberia, is the world's oldest, deepest, and most voluminous lake that began to form over 30 million years ago. Cited as the "most outstanding exampl... Read More about Changing nutrient cycling in Lake Baikal, the world’s oldest lake.

Glacial discharge into the subarctic Northeast Pacific Ocean during the last glacial (2020)
Journal Article
Swann, G. (2020). Glacial discharge into the subarctic Northeast Pacific Ocean during the last glacial. Global and Planetary Change, 194, Article 103301. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloplacha.2020.103301

Understanding the response of the climate to abrupt changes in the Earth system represents a key objective in paleoclimatology. Heinrich events in the last glacial, during which significant amounts of glacial discharge entered the North Atlantic Ocea...

Lessons from a high-CO2 world: an ocean view from  ∼ 3 million years ago (2020)
Journal Article
McClymont, E. L., Ford, H. L., Ho, S. L., Tindall, J. C., Haywood, A. M., Alonso-Garcia, M., …Zhang, Z. (2020). Lessons from a high-CO2 world: an ocean view from  ∼ 3 million years ago. Climate of the Past, 16(4), 1599-1615. https://doi.org/10.5194/cp-16-1599-2020

A range of future climate scenarios are projected for high atmospheric CO2 concentrations, given uncertainties over future human actions as well as potential environmental and climatic feedbacks. The geological record offers an opportunity to underst... Read More about Lessons from a high-CO2 world: an ocean view from  ∼ 3 million years ago.

Reduced upwelling of nutrient and carbon-rich water in the subarctic Pacific during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (2020)
Journal Article
Worne, S., Kender, S., Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., & Ravelo, A. C. (2020). Reduced upwelling of nutrient and carbon-rich water in the subarctic Pacific during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition. Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 555, Article 109845. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2020.109845

© 2020 Reduction in atmospheric pCO2 has been hypothesised as a causal mechanism for the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT), which saw global cooling and increased duration of glacials between 0.6 and 1.2 Ma. Sea ice-modulated high latitude upwelling a... Read More about Reduced upwelling of nutrient and carbon-rich water in the subarctic Pacific during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition.

The pH dependency of the boron isotopic composition of diatom opal (Thalassiosira weissflogii) (2020)
Journal Article
Donald, H. K., Foster, G. L., Fröhberg, N., Swann, G. E. A., Poulton, A. J., Moore, C. M., & Humphreys, M. P. (2020). The pH dependency of the boron isotopic composition of diatom opal (Thalassiosira weissflogii). Biogeosciences, 17(10), 2825-2837. https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-17-2825-2020

The high-latitude oceans are key areas of carbon and heat exchange between the atmosphere and the ocean. As such, they are a focus of both modern oceanographic and palaeoclimate research. However, most palaeoclimate proxies that could provide a long-... Read More about The pH dependency of the boron isotopic composition of diatom opal (Thalassiosira weissflogii).
