Extended Data Fig. 5: Eocene multi-proxy tropical SST compilation.

From: Synchronous tropical and polar temperature evolution in the Eocene

Extended Data Fig. 5

Compilation presented in Fig. 2, here plotted per site and proxy, with data sources in the key. The abbreviations Moro., Aca., and Turbo. stand for foraminifera genera Morozovella, Acarinina and Turborotalia, respectively. The dashed line in the Site 959 record represents a hiatus. Conservative estimates of propagated calibration and analytical errors (1 s.d.) are ±2.6 °C for \({{\rm{TEX}}}_{86}^{{\rm{H}}}\), ±1.6 °C for δ18O and ±1.3 °C for Mg/Ca. Δ47 uncertainties are as reported in the original study6, with the minimum and maximum per-sample uncertainty. Uncertainties are plotted on the same relative vertical temperature scale as the data to facilitate comparison. The age is in Myr ago, following GTS2012.
