Summary
Abstract: This data set consists of Planktonic foraminiferal oxygen isotope data from
Cariaco Basin piston cores PL07-39PC and PL07-43PC. Records from these two
cores are spliced together to produce a data series spanning the past 28,000
years. Oxygen isotope data are included for multiple species: Globigerina
bulloides, Neogloboquadrina dutertrei, Globigerinoides ruber (white
morphotype) and Globigerinoides ruber (pink morphotype).
