Statement

Planktic foraminifera species, Globigerinoides ruber sensu-stricto (ss), was identified and between 6 to 30 individuals picked from the 250-355µm fraction and gently crushed prior to analysis. Oxygen isotope analysis was performed at the British Geological Survey, NERC Isotope Geoscience Facilities, Keyworth. For trace metal analysis, samples were cleaned using a modification of Boyle et al (1985). An extended clay removal step, reductive and 10% oxidative steps were performed. Samples then polished 4 times using a weak (0.001M) HNO3 leaching step and dissolved (0.075M HNO3) on the day of analysis. Samples were analysed at the Open University using an Agilent Technologies Triple-Quad ICP-MS.
