The long-chain diol index (LDI) is a new organic sea surface temperature (SST) proxy based on the distribution of long-chain diols. It has been applied in several environments but not yet in subpolar regions. Here, we tested the LDI on surface sediments and a sediment core from the Sea of Okhotsk, w...
