Moreover, \r\na high correlation of coral Sr/Ca and d18O with local air \r\ntemperature on a mean annual scale (r = -0.78 for Sr/Ca; \r\nr = -0.73 for d18O; p < 0.0001) demonstrates the applicability \r\nof geochemical proxies measured from Diploria strigosa corals \r\nas reliable recorders for interannual temperature variability. \r\nBoth coral proxies are highly correlated with annual \r\nand seasonal mean time series of major SST indices in the \r\nnorthern tropical Atlantic (e.g., r = -0.71 for correlation \r\nbetween the index of North Tropical Atlantic SST anomaly \r\nand Sr/Ca, and r = -0.70 for d18O; mean annual scale, p < 0.001). \r\nFurthermore, the coral proxies capture the impact of the \r\nEl Niño-Southern Oscillation on the northern tropical Atlantic \r\nduring boreal spring. Thus fast-growing Diploria strigosa corals \r\nare a promising new archive for the Atlantic Ocean. \r\n","author":null,"citation":"Hetzinger, S., M. Pfeiffer, W.-C. Dullo, E. Ruprecht, \r\nand D.
