Radiocarbon as a thermocline proxy for the eastern equatorial
[1] An ocean model is used to test the idea that sea surface D14C behaves as a thermocline proxy in the eastern equatorial Pacific. The ORCA2 model, which includes D14C as a passive tracer, has been forced with reanalysis fluxes over 1948–1999, and the output is compared with a previously reported G...
