Stable isotope analysis of foraminifera from sediment core V23-81 (Table 2)
Oxygen and carbon isotope records from benthic and planktonic foraminifera are presented for the past 35,000 years in the northeastern Atlantic. The results support the idea that the last deglaci-ation took place in two major steps (Duplessy et al., 1981 doi:10.1016/0031-0182(81)90096-1; Mix and Rud...

Summary: | Oxygen and carbon isotope records from benthic and planktonic foraminifera are presented for the past 35,000 years in the northeastern Atlantic. The results support the idea that the last deglaci-ation took place in two major steps (Duplessy et al., 1981 doi:10.1016/0031-0182(81)90096-1; Mix and Ruddiman, 1985 doi:10.1016/0277-3791(85)90015-0; Ruddiman, 1987; Fairbanks, 1989 doi:10.1038/342637a0), and conflict with theories calling for a strong reduction in North Atlantic deep-water formation to explain the abrupt cooling of the Younger Dryas cold period (Broecker et al., 1985 doi:10.1038/315021a0; Rind et al., 1986 doi:10.1007/BF01277044; Broecker et al., 1988 doi:10.1029/PA003i001p00001). |
