17. CENOZOIC PALEOTEMPERATURES AT SITE 398, EASTERN NORTH ATLANTIC: DIAGENETIC EFFECTS ON CARBON AND OXYGEN ISOTOPIC SIGNAL
The oxygen and carbon isotopic history at Site 398, based on analyses of planktonic and benthic foraminifers, is greatly affected by diagenesis and selective dissolution. Nevertheless, a global de-crease in surface temperatures of 4 ° to 5°C, and in bottom temp-eratures of 10°C through the Tertiary...
