Abstract
Intensive studies of numerous deep-sea cores from the Red Sea proper have elucidated its paleoceanographic history during the Late Quaternary and have thereby significantly contributed to the reconstruction of regional Pleistocene-Holocene paleoclimates in this arid-semi-arid area (Degens and Ross 1969, Deuser et al. 1976, Herman 1968, Rosenberg-Herman 1965). Indeed, the Red Sea has been regarded as a “natural laboratory” for investigating changes in partly restricted marine environments (Berggren 1969).
