Temperature and Surface-Ocean Water Balance of the Mid-Holocene Tropical Western Pacific
Abstract
Skeletal Sr/Ca and 18 O/ 16 O ratios in corals from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, indicate that the tropical ocean surface ∼5350 years ago was 1°C warmer and enriched in 18 O by 0.5 per mil relative to modern seawater. The results suggest that the temperature increase enhanced the evaporative enrichment of 18 O in seawater. Transport of part of the additional atmospheric water vapor to extratropical latitudes may have sustained the 18 O/ 16 O anomaly. The reduced glacial-Holocene shift in seawater 18 O/ 16 O ratio produced by the mid-Holocene 18 O enrichment may help to reconcile the different temperature histories for the last deglaciation given by coral Sr/Ca thermometry and foraminiferal oxygen-isotope records.

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.
