Paleoceanography # 14(1):22-33. #------------------ # # Description & Notes: # Interglacial North Atlantic Temperature and Salinity Data. # Benthic foraminifer d18O measurements used for the definition of the 5e plateau. # Planktonic foraminifer d18O measurements and summer SST used for reconstruction # of salinities for the last interglacial. Because the age scale of isotopic substage # 5e is difficult to build and subjective choices must be made, we decided to put # all the cores on the same depth (the depth of core JPC8) and then to constrain # the age scale following the age scale of Adkins et al (1997). # # Variables: # depth Depth (cm) # depth.jpc8 Depth correlated to JPC8 (cm) # sst-aug Sea Surface Temperature (C, August) # d18Oforams-b delta O18 PDB (Benthic Foraminifers) # d18On.pachy-l delta O18 PDB (Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (left coiling)) # d18Owater delta O18 PDB (water) # sal Salinity # # CORE: V27-60 depth depth.jpc8 sst-aug d18Oforams-b d18On.pachy-l d18Owater sal 410 702.22 3.79 -999 -999 -999 -999 420 725.33 3.79 -999 -999 -999 -999 440 771.56 3.74 -999 -999 -999 -999 450 794.67 4.41 -999 -999 -999 -999 480 864 3.62 5.04 3.94 0.2490635 -999 485 875.56 -999 5.01 3.82 -999 -999 488 881.33 -999 4.93 -999 -999 -999 492 891.73 -999 4.98 3.81 -999 -999 495 898.67 -999 4.98 4.28 -999 -999 498 905.6 -999 4.91 -999 -999 -999 500 910.22 4.38 4.99 4.34 0.8596556 -999 505 921.78 3.76 4.62 4.38 0.7280422 -999 508 928.71 -999 4.71 -999 -999 -999 510 933.33 3.79 4.79 3.73 8.638374E-02 -999 515 944.89 3.21 4.44 2.81 -0.9955785 -999 520 956.44 -999 4.45 -999 -999 -999 525 968 4.1 4.58 2.84 -0.7176454 32.83064 528 981.71 -999 4.34 -999 -999 -999 532 1006.4 4.58 4.37 3.11 -0.3153303 33.63527 535 1022.86 3.35 4.32 2.8 -0.9663498 32.33323 536 1028.34 -999 4.03 2.56 -999 -999 545 1077.71 5.79 4.52 2.72 -0.3759772 33.51397 548 1094.17 -999 4.39 -999 -999 -999 552 1116.11 7.12 4.4 2.75 9.415025E-03 34.28476 560 1160 4.29 4.55 3.28 -0.2251552 -999 565 1163.67 -999 -999 4.3 -999 -999 570 1167.33 -999 4.74 -999 -999 -999 575 1171 -999 -999 3.61 -999 -999 580 1174.67 3.61 -999 4.27 0.5762761 -999 584 1177.6 -999 -999 4.17 -999 -999 591 1182.73 -999 -999 4.13 -999 -999 610 1196.67 3.74 -999 4.23 0.572479 -999 620 1204 3.74 -999 3.99 0.332479 -999 640 1218.67 3.74 5.65 4.78 1.122479 -999 650 1226 3.78 5.53 4.7 1.053604 -999 660 1233.33 3.74 5.43 4.56 0.9024789 -999 670 1240.67 4.29 5.53 4.47 0.9648448 -999 680 1248 -999 5.49 4.6 -999 -999
