(Appendix C) Stable isotope ratios and paleotemperature calculation of selected planktonic foraminifera from Maastrichtian sediments of DSDP Hole 74-525A from Walvis Ridge, South Atlantic ...

Absolute age estimates were determined based on average sedimentation rates within each planktonic foraminiferal biozone and magnetochron. Paleotemperature estimates were calculated using the equation of Erez and Luz (1983), with seawater delta18O=-1.2 per mil PDB corresponding to a continental ice-...

Description
Summary:Absolute age estimates were determined based on average sedimentation rates within each planktonic foraminiferal biozone and magnetochron. Paleotemperature estimates were calculated using the equation of Erez and Luz (1983), with seawater delta18O=-1.2 per mil PDB corresponding to a continental ice-free world (Shackleton and Kennett, 1975). ...
