Abstract

Analysis by the oxygen-isotope method of samples of benthonic Foraminifera, collected at different depths on the continental shelf and slope of western Cenitral America, yielded isotopic temperatures agreeing closely with the temperatures measured in the field. The validity of the oxygen-isotope method as a means of analysis of paleotemperatures is further supported.

摘要

通过氧同位素方法对在中美洲西部大陆架和大陆坡不同深度采集的底栖有孔虫样本进行分析，得出的同位素温度与实地测量的温度非常吻合。这进一步证明了氧同位素方法作为古温度分析手段的有效性。
