Abstract: Abstract The alkenone-pCO2 method is one of the most widely used approaches to reconstruct atmospheric CO2 in the Cenozoic. The method depends upon fractionation of stable carbon isotopes during algal photosynthesis, expressed as ep37:2, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2021pa004259
Abstract: Paleoproductivity is reconstructed across a Mediterranean benchmark record, the Early/Middle Pleistocene Montalbano Jonico section, cropping out in southern Italy. High‐resolution coccolithophore and alkenone data (C37 and C37:2/C38:2 ratio) were collected in order to extend the… read more here.
