We carried out oxygen and carbon isotope studies on monospecific foraminifer samples from DSDP Sites 522, 523, and 524 of Leg 73 in the central South Atlantic Ocean. The oxygen isotope ratios show a warming of 2 to 3 °C in bottom water and 5°C in surface water during the Paleocene and early Eocene....
