Time series of sea-surface temperature in cores sited beneath the region of maximum divergence centered on 10 degrees W are characterized by two sets of periodic signals. The dominant signal is centered on a period of 23 Ky and is coherent with and lags, approx. 2.5 Ky, the precessional component of orbitally controlled insolation. The subdominant periods occur between 4.0 and 2.5 Ky. Both sets of signals record variation in the seasonal intensity of oceanic divergence modulated by variation in tropical easterly intensity. The longer periods are a response to precessional forcing. The forcing responsible for the shorter periods is unknown.
Studying excited nucleon structure via exclusive KY electroproduction will be an important tool for exploring the non-perturbative strong interaction. Electrocouplings for low-lying N? states (<1.7 GeV) have been determined from analyses of CLAS ?N and ??N data. This work made clear that consistency of independent analyses of exclusive channels with different couplings and non-resonant contributions is essential to have confidence in the extracted results. In terms of hadronic coupling, most high-lying N? states preferentially decay through the ??N channel instead of ?N. Data from the KY channels will therefore be critical to provide an independent analysis to compare the extracted electrocouplings for the high-lying N? states against those determined from the ??N channel from an already approved CLAS12 12-GeV experiment. A new experiment that will focus on N??KY decays using CLAS12 at JLab will be discussed that will measure differential cross sections to be used as input to extract the ?vNN? transition form factors for the most prominent N? states in the range of invariant energy W from 1.6 to 3~GeV in the virtually unexplored domain of momentum transfers Q2 up to 12~GeV2.

To constrain theories for the dynamical evolution of global ice mass through the late Neogene, it is important to determine whether major changes in the record were gradual or rapid. Of particular interest is the evolution of the near 100-ky ice age cycle in the middle Pleistocene. We have applied a new technique based on multiple taper spectrum analysis which allows us to model the time evolution of quasi-periodic signals. This technique uses both phase and amplitude information, and enables us to address the question of abrupt versus gradual onset of the 100-ky periodicity in the middle Pleistocene.
