Diatom Oxygen Isotope Evidence of Pliocene (~4.68 to 3.44 Ma) Antarctic Ice Sheet Dynamics and Ross Sea Paleoceanography

The Andrill-1B (AND-1B) sediment core from under the Ross Ice Shelf in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, recovered a mid to late Pliocene (~4.68 to 3.44 Ma) age diatomite unit with d18Odiatom values that range from +32.6 to +37.6 ‰ (n=50
