Imprint of Holocene Climate Variability on Cold‐Water Coral Reef Growth at the SW Rockall Trough Margin, NE Atlantic

Abstract U‐Th ages and temperatures derived from Li/Mg have been measured on coral fragments of Lophelia pertusa and Madrepora oculata collected from two sediment cores, which were taken from cold‐water coral (CWC) mounds at 700–790m water depth at the SW Rockall Trough margin. Our data, combined wi...
