Organic carbon abundance and stable isotope record of sediment core RC13-259 (Table 1), supplement to: Singer, Alex; Shemesh, Aldo (1995): Climatically linked carbon isotope variation during the past 430,000 years in Southern Ocean sediments. Paleoceanography, 10(2), 171-178
We use the isotopic composition of carbon from organic matter enclosed within diatom frustules as a proxy for paleoproductivity and paleo-dissolved carbon dioxide concentrations in ocean surface waters. A Southern Ocean record from south of the Antarctic Polar Front and spanning 430,000 years of car...
