18O Fractionation in the coralline aragonite of Porites lobata: Implications in oceanic paleothermometry studies
This study is fundamentally focused on a simple, but relatively unpondered problem: the coral δ18O temperature sensitivity (dδ/dT). Previous paleotemperature studies of corals have involved the use of either: 1) the calcite’s δ18O temperature sensitivity for mollusks (Epstein et al., 1953) or 2) th...
