DESCRIPTION: Foraminfier stable isotope data from south Atlantic Ocean cores for the past 450 KYrs, including Marine Isotope Stage 11. These data were used by Hodell et al. to reconstruct oxygen and carbon isotopic gradients across the Polar Frontal Zone. Data file names correspond to the figures in the original reference, as follows: TN057-6_bullo18_c13 (Figure 1) TN057-6_cibO18_c13 (Figure 1) TN057-6_pachyo18_c13 (Figure 1) 704_pachyo18_c13 (Figure 3) TN057-10&11_pachy_o18_c13 (Figure 3) TN057-6_CaCO3 (Figure 8)
