Dinoflagellate cyst synthetic diagram (this study) compared with the foraminiferal δ18O records of the Chiba composite section. a Insolation at 65°N in June, and precession and obliquity parameters (Laskar et al. 2004). b Planktonic (G. bulloides) and benthic foraminiferal δ18O records of the Chiba composite section (Haneda et al. 2020b) based on the age model of Suganuma et al. (2018). c Dominant palynofacies component (brown line, terrestrial; blue line, marine amorphous organic matter [AOM]) from Fig. 16. d Dinoflagellate cyst synthetic diagram showing the most abundant taxa and local assemblage biozonation (this study). Substage classification of MIS 19 with stadials (MIS 19-s1–s4) and interstadials (MIS 19-i1–i4) follows Haneda et al. (2020b) but with modified labeling and MIS 19a benthic isotope oscillations (MIS 19a-o1 to MIS 19a-o4) following Head (2021). Blue arrow marks the suggested position of a Younger Dryas-type cooling event according to Suganuma et al. (2018)
