Marine geoscience can reveal valuable information about past environments, climates, and biota just before, during and after each climate perturbation. Particularly, certain intervals of geological records are windows to key episodes in the climate history of the Earth-life system. Ιn this regard, the detailed analyses of such time intervals are challenging and rewarding for environmental reconstruction and climate modelling, because they provide documentation and better understanding of a warmer-than-present world, and opportunities to test and refine the predictive ability of climate models. Marine geological dynamics such as sea-level changes, hydrographic parameters, water quality, sedimentary cyclicity, and (paleo)climate are strongly related through a direct exchange between the oceanographic and atmospheric systems. The increasing attention paid to this wide topic is also motivated by the interplay of these processes across a variety of settings (coastal to open marine) and timescales (early Cenozoic to modern). In order to realize the full predictive value of these warm (fresh)/cold (salty) intervals in Earth's history, it is important to have reliable tools (e.g., integrated geochemical, paleontological and/or paleoceanographic proxies) through the application of multiple, independent, and novel techniques (e.g., TEX86, UK'37, Mg/Ca, Na/Ca, Δ47, and μCT) for providing reliable hydroclimate reconstructions at both local and global scales.Research & information: generalbicsscAegean SeaAtlantic Meridional Circulation (AMOC)Attica-GreeceBTEX natural attenuationcarbonate porositycarbonate productioncentral Mediterranean hydrodynamicscleaning protocolclimate reconstructionclimate variabilitycoastal aquifercoastal aquiferscoastal environment changeconfined and unconfined aquifercryptic speciationdepositional environmentdepth habitat preferencediatomecological optimum conditionsenvironmental biomonitoringEocene brecciated limestonesforaminiferal-based proxiesgeochemical elementsGulf of Eleusishydro-stratigraphyLate Quaternarymarine biogenic carbonatesMediterranean Seamicrofacies typesmorphometricsmulti-layered aquifern/aocean paleodensityoffshore groundwater explorationpaleoceanographic evolutionPantokrator Limestonespetroleum prospectivityplanktonic foraminiferaplanktonic foraminiferal biogeographyprimary productivityproductivitypteropodssalt-/fresh-water relationshipsapropel S1sea level fluctuationssea surface densitysea surface temperature (SST)Senonian calciturbiditesshell sizeshell weightsoluble substancesstable isotopesstratificationstratigraphic correlationssurface sedimentssynchrotron X-ray microtomography (SμCT)Thriassion Plainunconsolidated core sedimentsVigla FormationX-ray microscopy (μCT)δ18O and Mg/Ca analysesResearch & information: generalKontakiotis Georgeedt1299435Antonarakou AssiminaedtKontakiotis GeorgeothAntonarakou AssiminaothBOOK9910557354603321Climate Change and Marine Geological Dynamics3025156UNINA
