Paired Porites coral Sr/Ca and delta 18O from the western South China Sea: Proxy calibration of sea surface temperature and precipitation

Paired strontium-to-calcium (Sr/Ca) and delta 18O measurements for two Porites lutea corals recovered from Hon Tre Island, Vietnam, are strongly correlated to sea surface temperature (SST) and precipitation at monthly to interannual time-scales. Least squares linear regression of monthly Sr/Ca to SS...

Zusammenfassung:Paired strontium-to-calcium (Sr/Ca) and delta 18O measurements for two Porites lutea corals recovered from Hon Tre Island, Vietnam, are strongly correlated to sea surface temperature (SST) and precipitation at monthly to interannual time-scales. Least squares linear regression of monthly Sr/Ca to SST shows a strong, significant correlation (r2 =0.77, p
