We present a revised 87Sr/86Sr-curve for marine-Sr in the interval 2.5-4.5 Ma using analysis of Orbulina universa from the Middle Pliocene type section in Sicily (Punta Piccola section) and a mixed assemblage of planktonic foraminifera from ODP Site 758A and B. The new calibration is used, together...
