Stable isotopes and Mg/Ca ratios of planktonic foraminiferal species (G. truncatulinoides, O. universa, G. ruber) from sediment core MD03-2416G

DOI

Proxy parameter of core MD03-2614G: Isotope-geochemical were performed on the planktonic foraminiferal species Globorotalia truncatulinoides, Orbulina universa and Globigerinoides ruber. The foraminiferal specimens were selected from sediment core MD03-2614G, which was recovered from south of Cape Pasley (south of Australia; 34°43.73S 123°25.70E) from 1070 m water depth during R/V Marion Dufresne Cruise MD131 in 2003 (https://doi.org/10.17600/3200090). Sampling and analytical studies were carried out from ~2 to 538 cm core depth at 2 cm spatial resolution. The records cover the last ~60 kyrs. The stable carbon (δ13C; ‰ VPDB) and oxygen isotope (δ18O, ‰ VPDB) analyses were performed on a Thermo Scientific MAT 253 mass spectrometer with an automated Kiel IV Carbonate Preparation Device. The proxy data provide stratigraphical information and were used to calculate the ice volume-corrected δ18O of seawater (δ18Osw-ivc; ‰ VSMOW). The geochemical analyses were performed on a VARIAN 720–ES Axial ICP-OES, a simultaneous, axial-viewing inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer coupled to a VARIAN SP3 sample preparation system at GEOMAR. G. truncatulinoides were analyzed on a simultaneous, radially viewing ICP-OES (Ciros CCD SOP, Spectro A.I., Univ. Kiel). Sample introduction was performed via an autosampler (Spectra A.I.). Mg/Ca ratios (mmol/mol) were converted into thermocline (TT; °C) and sea surface temperatures (STT; °C). Contaminant phases are added: Al/Ca, Fe/Ca, Mn/Ca in mmol/mol).
