Calcium isotopes in caves as a proxy for aridity: Modern calibration and application to the 8.2 kyr event

<p>We present the first study of Ca isotope cycling in a natural cave system, with measurements of bedrock, dripwater and recently formed carbonate, coupled to a first stalagmite time-series spanning the 8.2 kyr event. Dripwaters at Heshang Cave (Central China; 30°27’ N, 110°25’E) are isotopic...
