Planktic foraminiferal response to early Eocene carbon cycle perturbations in the southeast Atlantic Ocean (ODP Site 1263)

Abstract: At low latitude locations in the northern hemisphere, striking changes in the relative abundances and diversity of the two dominant planktic foraminifera genera, Morozovella and Acarinina, are known to have occurred close to the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO; ~49–53 Ma). Lower Eocene carbonate-rich sediments at Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Site 1263 were deposited on a bathymetric high (Walvis Ridge) at ~40° S, and afford an opportunity to examine such planktic foraminiferal assemblage changes in a tempe… Show more

“…The new late Paleocene to early Eocene Site 1209 benthic isotope record clearly demonstrates the global extent of repeated hyperthermal events during the warmest period of the Cenozoic era, thus providing additional insight into the nature of these events and their relation to orbital and other forcing (Figure ). Multiple carbon isotope excursions are revealed over the course of the Ypresian and Lutetian that correspond in timing and magnitude to hyperthermal events previously observed, for example, in New Zealand, Italy, and the Atlantic realm (e.g., Cramer et al, ; Coccioni et al, ; D'Onofrio et al, ; Galeotti et al, ; Kirtland Turner et al, ; Lauretano et al, , ; Leon‐Rodriguez & Dickens, ; Littler et al, ; Luciani et al, , ; Sexton et al, ; Slotnick et al, , ; Westerhold et al, ; Zachos et al, ). As a consequence of carbonate dissolution, benthic foraminifera are rare in some intervals, and thus, not all hyperthermal layers can be identified by their characteristic paired negative benthic stable carbon and oxygen isotope excursions.…”

“…Planktic foraminiferal (Petrizzo, ) and calcareous nannofossil (Bralower, ) biohorizon zonations published for Site 1209 have to be updated to the revised schemes of Wade et al () and Agnini et al (). This updated biostratigraphic scheme would provide a further stratigraphic tool to correlate hyperthermals and, at the same time, evaluate the synchronicity of planktic foraminiferal and calcareous nannofossil events that show some diachrony in the early Eocene (Luciani et al, ; Luciani & Giusberti, ; Westerhold et al, ). Updating the biozonal scheme of Petrizzo () and Bralower () is beyond the objectives of this study, requiring investigations on well‐selected additional samples.…”

“…This major turnover further relates to taxonomic diversity, consisting of species reduction among Morozovella and species diversification among Acarinina (Aze et al, 2011;Pearson et al, 2006). This turnover occurred also in the temperate Southern Hemisphere setting of Atlantic Site 1263 (Luciani et al, 2017). Supporting Information:…”

This turnover occurred also in the temperate Southern Hemisphere setting of Atlantic Site 1263 (Luciani et al, ). The timing of the Morozovella–Acarinina switch is interesting because the EECO (~49–53 Ma; Lauretano et al, ; Luciani et al, ; Slotnick et al, , ) represents the interval of peak sustained Cenozoic warmth (Bijl et al, ; Hollis et al, ; Huber & Caballero, ; Inglis et al, ; Pross et al, ; Zachos et al, ).…”
