A., Farias, C., González-García, E., ... & Rueda, J. L. (2023). Late Pleistocene boreal molluscs in the Gulf of Cadiz: Past and current oceanographic implications. Quaternary Science Reviews, 313, 108196. https://hdl.handle.net/10630/27206 10.1016/j.quascirev.2023.108196 Remains of molluscs were collected from the seafloor on the north-eastern margin of the Gulf of Cadiz, between 300 and 1000 m water depth, using different sampling methods (e.g. dredging, trawling and box-coring), during several deep-sea expeditions. Samples contained a suite of species which nowadays mostly occur northwards of the English Channel, together with other widespread species. Species now locally extinct in the Gulf of Cadiz and restricted to northern latitudes, which unequivocally indicate a faunal shift, include the gastropods Buccinum undatum, Colus gracilis, Liomesus ovum and Neptunea antiqua, the bivalves Arctica islandica, Chlamys islandica, Modiolus modiolus, Mya truncata and Nuculana pernula and the scaphopod Antalis entalis. These species represent “Boreal Guests” of marked palaeoclimatic significance, some of which are reported for the first time in the Gulf of Cadiz. The boreal species collected were mostly large (>5 cm) whereas smaller boreal species were extremely scarce, probably winnowed away by strong bottom currents. The pteropod Limacina retroversa, at present restricted to water masses northwards of the Iberian Peninsula but widespread in Mediterranean sediments of the last glaciation, was also recorded. Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) 14C dates obtained from nine specimens of molluscs ranged between 26.1 and 14.6 kyr B.P., thus confirming their attribution to a last glacial assemblage. The abundance of these molluscan remains in the present Mediterranean Outflow Water pathway could be explained if this outflow was reduced in intensity or more likely shifted to a deeper level, leaving the upper slope in contact with suitable Atlantic intermediate waters. The findings of Boreal Guests in the Gulf of Cadiz document the continuity of the faunal shift which is well-known in the Mediterranean basin. Species still living in the Gulf of Cadiz and the Alboran Sea nevertheless account for 84.6% of specimens among the larger species. spa Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacional Moluscos Moluscos fósiles Paleoceanografía Pleistoceno Late Pleistocene boreal molluscs in the Gulf of Cadiz: Past and current oceanographic implications journal article 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 URL https://riuma.uma.es/bitstreams/e2461778-282d-411d-90d6-8dae5e965281/download File MD5 e6a714506ea7fabfe839eb23f1050b1a 4643077 application/pdf 1-s2.0-S0277379123002445-main.pdf
