Figure F2. Isotopic data from Figure F1 projected onto a common age axis. Age estimates are based on shipboard data (Erbacher, Mosher, and Malone, et al., 2004). Similarity in average 13C and 18O values among holes and difference in scatter between data carbon and oxygen data is again apparent. However, minima in the 18O curves at Sites 1258, 1259, and 1260 do not correlate using these age models suggesting either the trends do not reflect regional paleoceanographic variation or the age models lack precision.
