  <Summary>
    <Abstract>Records of past climate and ocean environment derived from stable isotope, trace metal, and other measurements made on corals and sclerosponges.  Parameter keywords describe what was measured in this data set.  Additional summary information can be found in the abstracts of papers listed in the data set citations.
