Iodine to calcium ratios in marine carbonate as a paleo-redox proxy during oceanic anoxic events

Periods of globally distributed extreme oxygen depletion, so-called oceanic anoxic events (OAEs), have been recognized in the Mesozoic geological record and appear to be characteristic of episodes of extreme warmth. Here we explore the application of iodine/calcium ratios (I/Ca) in marine carbonate...
