Summary

Abstract: Oxygen and carbon isotope records are presented for the benthic foraminifer
Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi from upper middle through lower upper Miocene
(11.682 Ma) sediments recovered at intermediate water depth (1134 m) at
Ocean Drilling Program Site 982 on Rockall Plateau. Oxygen isotopic values
generally lighter than those for the Holocene indicate significantly warmer
intermediate waters ...
