Stable isotope paleoenvironmental record of a coral from Cabo Pulmo, entrance to the Gulf of california, mexico
A 17-year-long record of δ18O and δ13C from a Cabo Pulmo coral (Pavona gigantea) was analyzed. Although the coral δ18O signal is mainly temperature controlled (~70%), the seasonal arrival of surface water masses to the Gulf of California produces an isotopic effect in the opposite direction to that...
