Figure 1 shows a strong δ13C-δ18O correlation spanning about 25‰, with most values isotopically lighter than the expected equilibrium value.
“Figure 1 (data from Falk et al., 2016; Mervine et al., 2014; Clark et al., 1992; Clark and Fontes, 1990) shows the strong δ 13 Cδ 18 O correlation spanning a range of about 25‰, with most of the values being isotopically lighter than the expected equilibrium value.”

The rest of the δ13C-δ18O array has been attributed to some combination of mixing between different DIC sources, partial equilibration of DIC, and post-depositional recrystallization.

The scatter at the heavy end of the Oman array is most likely due to variable δ13C of DIC in alkaline spring waters and other DIC sources over the large area (50 x 200 km) sampled.

The difference in light isotope limits appears to be a consequence of the δ18O of H2O and OH- being about 6‰ higher in Oman, with OH- contributing 1/3 of the oxygen to CO3 2- during hydroxylation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
