Abstract:Seawater temperature is an essential quantity for paleoclimatological and paleoecological studies. A potential archive that can provide century-long, temporally well-constrained and high-resolution temperature proxy data is available in the form of bivalve shells. However, the number of well-accepted and robust temperature proxies contained in shells is limited to stable oxygen isotopes and carbonate clumped isotopes. Many studies have therefore investigated the possibility to reconstruct temperature from elem… Show more
