A key continental archive for the last 2 Ma of climatic history of the central Mediterranean region: A pilot drilling in the Fucino Basin, central Italy
An 82 m long sedimentary succession was retrieved from the Fucino Basin, the largest intermountain tectonic depression of the central Apennines. The basin hosts a succession of fine-grained lacustrine sediments (ca. 900 m-thick) possibly continuously spanning the last 2 Ma. A preliminary tephrostrat...

| description | An 82 m long sedimentary succession was retrieved from the Fucino Basin, the
largest intermountain tectonic depression of the central Apennines. The basin
hosts a succession of fine-grained lacustrine sediments (ca. 900 m-thick)
possibly continuously spanning the last 2 Ma. A preliminary
tephrostratigraphy study allows us to ascribe the drilled 82 m long record
to the last 180 ka. Multi-proxy geochemical analyses (XRF scanning, total
organic/inorganic carbon, nitrogen and sulfur, oxygen isotopes) reveal
noticeable variations, which are interpreted as paleohydrological and
paleoenvironmental expressions related to classical glacial–interglacial
cycles from the marine isotope stage (MIS) 6 to present day. In light of the
preliminary results, the Fucino sedimentary succession is likely to provide
a long, continuous, sensitive, and independently dated paleoclimatic archive
of the central Mediterranean area. |
