The 7% carbon-13 depletion in cold water phytoplankton provides a striking signal that is traceable in deep-sea cores taken in high latitude regions of the Southern hemisphere. This signal may be weakened by noise due to (1) terrestrially derived debris in areas close to the continents; (2) changing...
