Stable isotope analyses of the benthonic foraminiferal genus Uvigerina from 39 samples at Site 284, covering an interval from the late Miocene to early Pleistocene (approximately 6 to 1,5 m.y. B.P.), are interpreted in terms of glacially induced isotopic changes in the ocean. The Antarctic ice sheet...
