Santa Barbara Basin Alkenones
Entry ID:
NOAA_NCDC_PALEO_96-015
Summary
Abstract:
Annual variations in alkenone unsaturation in laminated sediments in the Santa
Barbara basin reveal increases in water temperature which can be linked directly to the observed sequence of El Nino events in the twentieth century. Water temperatures calculated from Uk37 values correspond broadly to 20m water temperature data of the calCOFI program for 1953-1984. Full details of sampling and methodology are in the file methods.txt. Geographic Coverage
