| 摘 要： | Stable isotope of autogenous oceanic carbonate (e.g., calcite of foraminiferal shells) has become a basic tracer in paleoceanography. Oxygen isotope composi-tion (δ 18O) is generally controlled by factors, such as ice volume and water temperature, and is…

| Abstract: | A stacked ocean carbon isotope (δ
13C) record of 200 ka is established on the basis of planktonic foraminifer (Globigerinoides ruber) δ
13C data from 8 sites in the South China Sea (SCS). The δ
13C record from the SCS displays a trend similar to that from the Pacific and Atlantic oceans mainly responding to long eccentricity
and precession cycles, with all the three δ
13C minima occurring at glacial terminations. Thus, the changes of the oceanic carbon reservoir in glacial cycles should not
be considered as a response only to ice-sheet variations, but could have been driven also by low latitude processes, such
as the monsoon. |
