Constructing a High-Resolution Record of Silurian Paleoclimate Using Carbonate Oxygen Isotopes
The collection of δ¹⁸O data from carbonates provides insight into the temperature of Earth millions of years ago. Paleozoic δ¹⁸O records are currently compiled from brachiopod fossils because of their resistance to diagenetic alteration, but this data is relatively sparse and not well time-resolved....
