Benthic stable isotopic measurements from four ODP Leg 189 sites, in and near the Tasmanian Gateway, link existing southern high latitude records from the Oligocene. Bulk sediment isotopic analyses at Sites 1170-1172 present the first moderate resolution, high latitude “planktic” late Oligocene to e...
