Evidence for a biological pump driver of atmospheric CO2 rise during Heinrich Stadial 1
Description: The initial trigger of the atmospheric CO2 rise during Heinrich Stadial 1 (HS1: 14.5-17.5 kyr B.P.) remains elusive. We present a compilation of four paired surface and intermediate-depth foraminiferal δ13C records to test whether reduced biological pump efficiency led to the initial CO2 rise during the last deglaciation.
