Confounding effects of coral growth and high SST variability on skeletal Sr/Ca: Implications for coral paleothermometry

Massive corals offer continuous records of climate locked within their skeleton, with the most commonly applied paleo-thermometer being Sr/Ca. Recently, however, problems with Sr/Ca thermometry indicate that the intrinsic variance of single-core Sr/Ca time series differs between cores. Here, we comp...
