  <Summary>
    <Abstract>A 1000 year long subdecadal-resolution record of carbonate oxygen 
isotopes (d18Oc) from Lough-na-Shade, Ireland, provides evidence 
for changing atmospheric circulation over northwest Europe. 
The total range of d18Oc values (&gt;5‰) is too large to be explained 
by changes in water temperature. Moreover, good correlation between 
the lake record and a previously published d18O time series from 
an Irish speleothem indicates that the changes in oxygen isotopes 
are best explained by variations in the isotopic composition of 
precipitation. The amplitude of change during this period is 
too large to be explained by shifts in condensation temperature. 
Instead we suggest that there have been changes in vapour source 
and transport paths connected with shifts in atmospheric circulation. 
Changes from a source area from further south within the North Atlantic 
to one further to the north could explain the prominent positive shift 
in oxygen-isotope values between the early eighteenth and early 
nineteenth centuries, for example. Our results also demonstrate 
the value of a &apos;multiple-archive&apos; approach to deconvolving 
lake-based carbonate isotope profiles, which are often complex. 
 
          STUDY NOTES: High-resolution stable isotope data on ostracod shells from 
Lough-na-Shade, N. Ireland. Samples are mainly Candona candida, 
but a few are C. neglecta. Lough-na-Shade is a small (0.3 ha 
surface area), shallow (maximum depth ~3.5 m) lake in Co. Armagh, 
N Ireland.
