Deglacial and Holocene sea surface temperature (SST) and δ18O reconstruction from the western Mediterranean Sea

All data are based on the planktonic foraminifera Globigerina bulloides. SST are based on Mg/Ca ratios converted to SST by applying the calibration from Cisneros et al. (2016, doi:10.5194/cp-12-849-2016). Since this calibration was performed on non-reductive cleaned samples and, the Mg/Ca ratios from ALB-2 and MD99-2343 cores were obtained with the full reductive cleaning procedure, Mg/Ca ratios were increased by 12% prior to the calibration application. δ18O are also based in the same planktonic foraminifera Globigerina bulloides. ALB-2 record: A new deglacial and Holocene sea surface temperature (SST) and δ18O reconstructions are presented for the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) with its age-model. MD99-2343: A new deglacial and Holocene sea surface temperature (SST) reconstruction is presented for the Menorca Drift (western Mediterranean). The age-model has been improved from the originally published by Frigola et al. (2007, doi:10.1029/2006PA001307) for the last 17 kyr. MD95-2043: A new deglacial and Holocene sea surface temperature (SST) reconstruction is presented for the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean).
