Stable isotope (δ18O,δ13C) results of speleothems from Angelica Cave (central Brazil)
Here we present a speleothem oxygen isotope (δ18O) and carbon isotope (δ13C) record from Angelica Cave in central Brazil (13.40°S, 46.23°W, ~585 m above sea level). The record is based on three stalagmite samples, AG1, AG2 and AG4. Ages of the samples were constrained by high-precision U-Th disequil...
