متن کاملO/O measurements on benthic foraminifera
[1] We explore the applicability of paired Mg/Ca and O/O measurements on benthic foraminifera from Southern Ocean site 747 to paleoceanographic reconstructions on pre-Pleistocene timescales. We focus on the late Oligocene through Pleistocene (27–0 Ma) history of paleotemperatures and the evolution of the dO values of seawater (dOsw) at a temporal resolution of 100–200 kyr. Absolute paleotempera...
متن کاملImproved oxygen isotope temperature calibrations for cosmopolitan benthic foraminifera
Despite decades of use as a paleoceanographic proxy, considerable uncertainty still surrounds the temperature dependence of benthic foraminiferal dO. Widely applied paleotemperature equations may mix non-equilibrium foraminifera with equilibrium synthetic calcite, resulting in temperature sensitivities that are too large. Warm-water foraminiferal calibrations may give temperature sensitivities ...
متن کاملIntraspecific stable isotope variability in the planktic foraminifera Globigerinoides sacculifer: Results from laboratory experiments
Laboratory experiments conducted on the multichambered planktic foraminifera Globigerinoides sacculifer are used to determine the effect of symbiont photosynthesis on shell carbon and oxygen isotopic composition. Stable isotope analyses of individual chambers secreted under controlled temperature and light levels show that chamber jl3C values increase with increasing light levels. The effect of...
متن کاملCoherent pattern and timing of the carbon isotope excursion and warming during Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 as recorded in planktic and benthic foraminifera
[1] Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 (ETM2; ∼53.7 Ma) occurred approximately 2 Myr after the Paleocene‐ Eocene Thermal Maximum (∼55.5 Ma) and was characterized by a deep‐sea warming of >3°C, associated with massive release of carbon into the ocean‐atmosphere system. We performed single‐specimen stable isotope analyses of the planktic foraminiferal genera Acarinina (surface dweller) and Subbotina (therm...
