Stable isotope ratios of benthic and planktonic foraminifera from Late Miocene sediments of DSDP Hole 24-238 on the Central Indian Ocean Ridge (Appendix 1), supplement to: Vincent, Edith; Killingley, John S; Berger, Wolfgang H (1980): The Magnetic Epoch-6 carbon shift: A change in the ocean´s 13C/12C ratio 6.2 million years ago. Marine Micropaleontology, 5, 185-203
Tropical Indian Ocean planktonic and benthic foraminifera have 13C/12C ratios which change abruptly within Magnetic Epoch 6 about 6.2 million years ago. All species analyzed in the Late Miocene section of DSDP Site 238 show a shift towards lighter values of delta13C by about 0.8‰. The oxygen isotope...
