paleoceanography : ウィキペディア英語版 | paleoceanography
Paleoceanography is the study of the history of the oceans in the geologic past with regard to circulation, chemistry, biology, geology and patterns of sedimentation and biological productivity. Paleoceanographic studies using environment models and different proxies enable the scientific community to assess the role of the oceanic processes in the global climate by the re-construction of past climate at various intervals. Paleoceanographic research is also intimately tied to paleoclimatology. == Source and methods of information == Paleoceanography makes use of so-called proxy methods as a way to infer information about the past state and evolution of the worlds oceans. Several geochemical proxy tools include long-chain organic molecules (e.g. alkenones), stable and radioactive isotopes, and trace metals (2002 ). Additionally, sediment cores can also be useful; the field of paleoceanography is closely related to sedimentology and paleontology.
