5. Comparison of Hole 1017E planktonic oxygen isotopic record with GRIP
(Greenland Ice-core Project) 18Oice
(Dansgaard et al., 1993), based on GISP2 (Greenland Ice-Sheet Project)
chronology (Bender et al., 1994). Dotted lines show the correlation of
Dansgaard-Oeschger interstadials (IS) in the Greenland ice core with California
margin (Hole 1017E) surface-water warmings. Radiocarbon age control points (+)
and isotopic Event 4.0 are shown to the right. PDB = Peedee belemnite, SMOW =
standard mean ocean water.
