Also featuring a novel (OH-)isoGDGT-based #paleotemperature #ClimateProxy!

Multi-proxy reconstructions of paleotemperature in the southern South China Sea since the last deglaciation

The accuracy of paleothermometers is a prerequisite for understanding the past sea surface temperature (SST) changes in the tropical seas. Here, we an…

Unlike #TEX86, another #GDGT-based #paleotemperature #ClimateProxy named the #Ring #Index of hydroxylated tetraethers (RI-OH) behaves as an #SST proxy despite the terrigenous #inputs.
This #place too deserves a #thread about my related #PhD #research #publication in #Paleoceanography and #Paleoclimatology:

Two #basic #things to #know for #GDGT #lovers like me:
- These #nerdy #membrane-spanning #lipids are #ubiquitous in the #environment
- #GDGTs may have #multiple and #mixed #sources

If like a younger me* you apply #TEX86 in (#paleo)prodelta #deposits, be prepared to obtain #spooky #results from this #GDGT-based #paleotemperature #ClimateProxy!
