High-resolution (~3 k.y.) delta18O records from middle Eocene mixed-layer dwelling planktonic foraminifera from the western North Atlantic show pronounced (>1‰) variability. The magnitude of change is greater than that seen in open-ocean Pleistocene records, but could not have been caused by ice-...
