IRIS – Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è il sistema di gestione della ricerca dell’Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca.Il repository BOA è il modulo del sistema dedicato alla raccolta e alla disseminazione della produzione scientifica di Ateneo. Le pubblicazioni sono ricercabili per parola chiave attraverso il box nella barra orizzontale in alto oppure, mediante il pulsante Sfoglia, per "Afferenza", "Autore", "Titolo", "Tipologia" o "Settore scientifico-disciplinare".
IRIS contiene inoltre alcuni moduli dedicati alla registrazione dei progetti e dei contratti, e alla reportistica avanzata per le attività di valutazione della ricerca
EnglishWe here investigate the spatial and temporal variability of eolian dust particle sorting recorded in the Dome B (77° 05′ S, 94° 55’ E) ice core, central East Antarctica, during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 2. We address the question whether such changes reflect variable transport pathways from a unique source area or rather a variable apportionment from diverse Southern Hemisphere sources transported at different elevation in the troposphere. The Sr-Nd radiogenic isotope composition of glacial dust samples as well as single-particle Raman mineralogy support the hypothesis of a single dust provenance both for coarse and fine mode dust events at Dome B. The southern South American provenance of glacial dust in Antarctica deduced from these results indicate a dust composition coherent with a mixture of volcanic material and minerals derived from metamorphic and plutonic rocks. Additionally, Dome B glacial samples contain aragonite particles along with diatom valves of marine benthic/epiphytic species and freshwater species living today in the northern Antarctic Peninsula and southern South America. These data suggest contribution from the exposed Patagonian continental shelf and glacial outwash plains of southern Patagonia at the time when sea level reached its minimum. Our results confirm that dust sorting is controlled by the relative intensity of the two main patterns of tropospheric dust transport onto the inner Plateau, i.e. fast low-level advection and long-range high-altitude transport including air subsidence over Antarctica.
