Abstract:
On the basis of planktonic foraminifera study, thickness of Holocene sediments has been ascertained in 60 sediment cores from various regions of the Atlantic Ocean. Ratios of species reflect warming of the upper water layer at the Pleistocene-Holocene boundary over the entire ocean. The Holocene boundary can be determined not only from microfaunal data, but also from lithologic ones including textural and structural features. Increase in CaCO3 contents in Holocene sediments as compared to Pleistocene is from 5-7% to 60-70% in different parts of the ocean.
