Positive shifts in global seawater δ13 CDIC are related to changes in the ratio of organic relative to inorganic carbon burial in oceanic basins, whereas factors such as climatic cooling and the accumulation of polar ice ...

The nature of compositional variability within the tiny calcitic shells (tests) that are precipitated by planktonic foraminifera has been investigated using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry ...

High-quality palaeoceanographic reconstructions based on sequences preserved in shallow marine environments demonstrate that these constitute significant archives of climatic and oceanographic change. Such sequences are ...

Marine localities on the west European shelf have been studied to reconstruct the nearshore palaeoceanography of the last two millennia. The sites form a transect from the Iberian margin northeastward via Scotland to western ...
