Temperature and Surface-Ocean Water Balance of the Mid-Holocene Tropical Western Pacific

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 ev...
