Oxygen Isotope Paleotemperature Determinations of Australian Cainozoic Fossils.
Fossil marine shells collected in southern Victoria within half a degree of latitude of 38(1/2) degrees S have been analyzed for O(18)/O(16) by mass spectroscopy, and their paleotemperatures have been determined. For the genera Chlamys, Ostrea, and Glycymeris the temperature rises from early to mid-Tertiary, then falls again to the present.
متن کاملImproved oxygen isotope temperature calibrations for cosmopolitan benthic foraminifera
Despite decades of use as a paleoceanographic proxy, considerable uncertainty still surrounds the temperature dependence of benthic foraminiferal dO. Widely applied paleotemperature equations may mix non-equilibrium foraminifera with equilibrium synthetic calcite, resulting in temperature sensitivities that are too large. Warm-water foraminiferal calibrations may give temperature sensitivities ...
متن کاملPaleotemperature reconstruction in tropical Africa using fossil Chironomidae (Insecta: Diptera)
Fossil assemblages of chironomid larvae (non-biting midges) preserved in lake sediments are well-established paleothermometers in north-temperate and boreal regions, but their potential for temperature reconstruction in tropical regions has never before been assessed. In this study, we surveyed subfossil chironomid assemblages in the surface sediments of 65 lakes and permanent pools in southwes...
متن کاملFossil insect folivory tracks paleotemperature for six million years
Paleoecological studies enhance our understanding of biotic response to climate change because they consider timescales not accessible through laboratory or ecological studies. From 60 to 51 million years ago (Ma), global temperatures gradually warmed to the greatest sustained highs of the last 65 million years. Superimposed on this gradual warming is a transient spike of high temperature and p...
متن کاملAl-mg Isotope Systematics in the Efremovka E60 Cai: Evidence of Re-equilibration
Introduction: In recent years, the calcium-aluminum-rich inclusion (CAI) E60 from the Efremovka reduced CV3 chondrite has been used as an age anchor for the Al-Mg extinct chronometer (t1/2 ~0.73 Ma) since an internal Al-Mg isochron corresponding to a 26Al/27Al ratio of (4.63 ± 0.44) × 10−5 has been determined for it [1] and a highly precise 207Pb-206Pb age of 4567.11 ± 0.16 Ma has also been rep...
