La huella de las oscilaciones globales del nivel del mar durante los últimos 530 000 años en el Golfo de león y su variabilidad durante el estadio Isotópico Marino 3

Abstract

[ES] El sondeo PRGL1-4, recuperado en el talud superior, ha proporcionado un registro único, continuo y de larga duración para la investigación del impacto de las oscilaciones del nivel del mar de escala glacial/interglacial durante el Pleistoceno Superior en la construcción del margen continental del Golfo de León, dominado por aportaciones sedimentarias de origen fluvial. El estudio en detalle de los cambios del tamaño de grano y la composición elemental del sedimento, junto con una robusta cronoestratigrafía basada en el registro de isótopos de oxígeno en foraminíferos planctónicos, ha permitido reinterpretar la sismoestratigrafia del margen para los últimos 530 ka. El sondeo PRGL1-4 comprende el apilamiento formado por cinco unidades depositadas durante las bajadas del nivel del mar de los últimos cinco ciclos glacial/interglacial de 100 ka. La extensa plataforma del Golfo de León ha jugado un papel determinante en el desarrollo del margen profundo puesto que las oscilaciones del nivel del mar, además de modificar el espacio de acomodación, influyeron directamente en cambios cíclicos del modelo deposicional a través de la activación y desactivación de procesos con gran capacidad erosiva y de transporte de sedimento más allá de la plataforma. El registro del sondeo PRGL1-4 también muestra el impacto de las oscilaciones del nivel del mar a escala milenaria durante el MIS 3, con evidencias claras de la ocurrencia de niveles del mar altos durante la fase inicial de todos y cada uno de los interestadios cálidos de los ciclos de Dansgaard-Oeschger. El registro PRGL1-4 supone, por tanto, la primera evidencia de un acoplamiento consistente entre las oscilaciones del nivel del mar y la variabilidad climática rápida de escala milenaria asociada a los ciclos de Dansgaard-Oeschger.

[EN] Borehole PRGL1-4, drilled in the upper slope, provided an exceptional, continuous and long record for investigating the impact of glacial/interglacial sea level oscillations during the Upper Pleistocene in the outbuilding of the Gulf of Lion continental margin, which was dominated by fluvial sedimentary inputs. The detailed analysis of temporal oscillations in grain-size and geochemical elemental composition, together with a robust chronostratigraphy based on the oxygen isotopic record of planktonic foraminifera, allowed reinterpreting the seismostratigraphy of the margin for the last 530 ky. Borehole PRGL1-4 consists of five stacked units that formed during the sea level lowerings of the last five glacial/interglacial 100 ky cycles. The areal extent of the Gulf of Lion's continental shelf has played a decisive role in the development of the margin since sea level oscillations, in addition of modifying accommodation space, cyclically modified the margin depositional pattern through the highstand activation and lowstand deactivation of highly erosion and transport processes able to carry large amounts of sediment beyond the shelf edge. The PRGL1-4 record also shows the impact of millennial scale sea level oscillations during MIS 3, evidencing the occurrence of relative high sea levels during each of the Dansgaard-Oescheger Greenland warm interstadials. Hence, the PRGL1-4 record represents the first evidence of a consistent coupling between sea level oscillations and millennial scale climate variability associated with Dansgaard-Oeschger cycles. © Universidad de La Rioja.
